-
----
-
-Currently on v0.13.0 (migration 017). Will chain-upgrade to v0.16.0. Here's the integration plan across three tiers.
-
-## Tier 1: Drop-in replacements (no schema changes)
-
-### Planet magnitude in WhatsUp query
-
-The `_UNIFIED_WHATS_UP_SQL` in `sky_engine.py` already returns a `magnitude` column for planets, but it's NULL — the field exists in the response schema. Wiring `planet_magnitude(body_id, ts)` into the planet CTE is a one-line change per planet row.
-
-Sun and Moon magnitudes are currently hardcoded (`-26.7` and `-12.6`). Keeping those as-is since `planet_magnitude()` covers body_ids 1-8 only.
-
-### Moon phase in WhatsUp moon row
-
-The moon CTE already returns name, altitude, azimuth, distance, RA/Dec. Adding `moon_phase_name(ts)`, `moon_illumination(ts)`, and `moon_phase_angle(ts)` as extra columns. These are `IMMUTABLE` so zero performance concern.
-
-Frontend: display phase name + illumination percentage next to Moon in sky table. Map `moon_phase_name()` to unicode symbols (U+1F311-1F318) in the TypeBadge or a new MoonPhaseIcon.
-
-## Tier 2: New data in existing endpoints
-
-### Twilight times in rise-set endpoint
-
-The `/api/sky/rise-set` endpoint currently returns sun rise/set events. Extending the response to include twilight boundaries:
-
-```
-events: [
-  {time: "...", event: "astronomical_dawn"},
-  {time: "...", event: "nautical_dawn"},
-  {time: "...", event: "civil_dawn"},
-  {time: "...", event: "rise"},
-  {time: "...", event: "set"},
-  {time: "...", event: "civil_dusk"},
-  {time: "...", event: "nautical_dusk"},
-  {time: "...", event: "astronomical_dusk"}
-]
-```
-
-Same NULL handling for polar latitudes as existing rise/set — just skip the event from the array.
-
-### Moon illumination in observing score
-
-`atmosphere_fetcher.py` computes `_compute_observing_score()` from weather metrics. Adding moon illumination as a factor: bright moon (>75% illumination) penalizes the score for deep-sky objects. Query `moon_illumination(now())` and fold it into the scoring formula.
-
-New fields in `ObservingConditions` response:
-- `moon_illumination: float` (0.0-1.0)
-- `moon_phase: str` (phase name)
-
-Dashboard `ObservingConditionsWidget.tsx` gets a moon phase row alongside cloud cover, visibility, etc.
-
-## Tier 3: New features enabled
-
-### Notification timing with twilight
-
-The `whats_up_checker` currently runs on a cron schedule. With twilight functions, notifications can be timed to astronomical dusk — "Sky is dark in 20 minutes, here's what's visible tonight." The checker queries `sun_astronomical_dusk(observer, now())` to determine if it should send alerts.
-
-### Planet brightness filter
-
-Add `min_magnitude` query param to `/api/sky/up` endpoint. Filter planets by `planet_magnitude(body_id, ts) < min_magnitude`. Default: show all. Useful for naked-eye-only observers who don't care about Neptune at +7.8.
-
-## Migration
-
-```python
-# 018_upgrade_pg_orrery_to_0_16_0.py
-op.execute("ALTER EXTENSION pg_orrery UPDATE")  # chains 0.13.0 -> 0.16.0
-```
-
-Docker: update `PG_ORRERY_PATH` to point at v0.16.0 source for fresh builds.
-
-## Questions
-
-1. **Saturn ring tilt caveat** — how far off is the mean-inclination magnitude from reality right now (2026)? Saturn's ring plane crossing was ~2025, so rings are nearly edge-on. Is the error minimal at this point in the cycle?
-
-2. **Moon age** — any use case beyond display? Considering whether `moon_age()` adds value in the API response or if phase_name + illumination covers it.

-**Next steps for recipient:**
-- [ ] Confirm Saturn magnitude accuracy for current epoch
-- [ ] Clarify moon_age utility vs phase_name + illumination

-| Re | Integration plan confirmed, questions answered |
-
----
-
-Integration plan looks great across all three tiers. Quick answers to both questions:
-
-## Saturn ring tilt accuracy (Q1)
-
-Your timing is actually ideal. Saturn's ring plane crossing was ~March 2025, so the rings are nearly edge-on right now. At edge-on, ring contribution to brightness is near zero — the mean-inclination error in `planet_magnitude()` is at its *minimum* for 2025-2028.
-
-The ~1.5 mag variation peaks at maximum ring tilt (~27°), which won't recur until ~2032. For the next several years, the function's output for Saturn will be well within 0.3 mag of reality. No correction needed.
-
-## Moon age utility (Q2)
-
-`moon_age()` is the continuous value that `moon_phase_name()` quantizes. Phase name bins are 45 degrees wide — two very different viewing conditions (age 1.5 days vs age 4.0 days) both map to `waxing_crescent`.
-
-Practical use cases beyond display:
-- **Astrophotography planning**: terminator position on the lunar surface correlates with age, not phase name. Photographers target specific ages for crater shadow angles.
-- **Interpolation**: age lets you compute "3 days until full moon" or "next new moon in ~12 days" without a separate function.
-- **Sorting**: age gives natural ordering within a lunation that phase name can't.
-
-That said, if astrolock's frontend only needs "phase icon + percentage", `moon_phase_name()` + `moon_illumination()` covers it. `moon_age()` is more of a power-user / planning feature. Shipping it in the API response is cheap (it's `IMMUTABLE`, already computed from the same phase angle), so including it has no cost.
-
-## Notes on the plan
-
-**Tier 1** — the planet magnitude CTE change and moon phase columns are clean. One note: `planet_magnitude()` will `ereport(ERROR)` for body_id 0 (Sun) and 3 (Earth). If your planet CTE ever includes those, wrap in a `CASE` or filter them out. Body IDs 1-2, 4-8 are safe.
-
-**Tier 2** — twilight events in rise-set is the natural extension. Note that `sun_astronomical_dawn/dusk()` returns NULL at high latitudes in summer (never gets dark enough). Your existing NULL-skip pattern handles this correctly.
-
-For the observing score moonlight penalty — `moon_illumination()` is the right input. Consider also that the Moon's altitude matters: a 95% illuminated Moon below the horizon doesn't affect observing. You could gate the penalty on `moon_observe(observer, ts).elevation > 0`.
-
-**Tier 3** — notification timing keyed to `sun_astronomical_dusk()` is clever. Querying it once at the start of the checker loop gives you exact darkness onset without cron approximation.
