aircraft_in_area compared a nullable altitude, so a contact with neither barometric nor geometric altitude matched max_altitude_m as though it were at zero. Require a reported finite altitude only when a band is requested; unfiltered queries keep the contact.
The flight, military and vessel feeds were named after the providers the
bundled server uses (/api/opensky, /api/adsblol/mil, /api/ais-live and
their track routes; createOpenSkySource, createAdsbLolSource,
createAisStreamSource). Any server should be able to answer a feed from
its own provider, so the feeds are now:
/api/flights /api/flights/track?icao24=
/api/military /api/military/track?hex=
/api/vessels /api/vessels/track?mmsi=
with createFlightSource, createMilitarySource and createVesselSource. The
old routes are removed. Each server names its provider in X-Feed-Source
(the bundled server sends OpenSky Network, adsb.lol and AISStream, so its
attribution is unchanged) and the military feed's cache state and age in
X-Feed-Cache and X-Feed-Age-Ms. Sources report the provider the server
names and fall back to the feed's name.
find_aircraft merged the records of the feeds that answered and dropped their
freshness, so a stale OpenSky snapshot read as a current "not reported".
Answers now list each feed with its freshness and coverage and say which
feed's data may be stale.
A sweep for the same pattern found more answers presented as current and
complete: launches and satellite orbits served from a stale proxy cache, a
regional aircraft fallback read as worldwide, license plate cameras trimmed
or partly loaded, and a radio directory of popular stations read as every
station. The launch and satellite sources now report the proxies' stale
markers, and each answer says what it covers.
find_aircraft failed whenever either feed failed. It now answers from the
feeds that responded, names the ones that did not, and searches only the
military feed for registrations, the only feed that reports them.
Unknown aircraft tracks read as empty instead of a server error, aircraft
info names the aircraft and flight, the HUD caption sends the app's caption
context, and satellite pass, satellites overhead and nearby places take a
place name or point like the other tools.
Add aircraft_in_area, find_aircraft, get_aircraft_track and
get_aircraft_info over the live aircraft sources, with an optional
military feed, and next_satellite_pass and satellites_overhead over the
satellite catalog and the existing pass predictor.
Source failures from the live contract now become tool errors with the
matching code, so a rate limit reaches clients as retry_later with a
wait time. Tool schemas may use pattern.
