Praśna (horary): a question, a deal, or a KP number
get_prashnaUse this when the user asks a specific question and wants it answered from the moment of asking rather than from a birth chart — "will this deal close?", "will I recover?", "will I find what I lost?" — or when a KP astrologer gives a horary number 1–249. Send where the user is as place; it is never defaulted.
The chart of the moment and place a question is asked, read on the classical praśna rules, no model. Always: the praśna lagna and its lord, the Moon, the house of the matter asked about, the hand-encoded classical dicta that apply (recovery from illness for a health question; recovery of a lost article when the question names one), and the rules from the praśna books in the corpus that held on this chart, each with its book and the chart facts that made it hold. With deal: the deal praśna — significators (lagna lord = you, 7th = the other side, 10th = the undertaking, 11th = gain), their Tājika contacts, the grounds for and against, and an ordered verdict (perfects, perfects after obstacles, contested, delayed, delayed and contested, not perfected); add birthData for the natal commitment calendar beside it, never blended with it. With horaryNumber (1–249): the KP horary table — Placidus cusps in the Krishnamurti ayanāṁśa for the moment that sub rises, planets at the moment of judgment, sign/star/sub/sub-sub lords, and the ruling planets; no KP judgment is asserted. Rules about caste, prenatal sex or death timing are withheld and counted.
Cost: 3 credits per call (only successful calls are charged; a sandbox key is free and returns a fixed sample).
Deterministic: the same input always gives the same answer.

Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| deal | No | Read the question as one deal (the deal praśna). | |
| place | Yes | Where the question is asked. Required: a praśna cast at the wrong longitude is a different chart. | |
| domain | No | What the question is about: picks the house of the matter and scopes the book rules. With a deal and no domain, the deal's own. | |
| askedAt | No | The instant the question was asked, ISO 8601 with Z or an offset. Default: now. Send this or askedAtLocal, not both. | |
| question | No | The question in the user's words. Gates the lost-article dictum; it does not choose the domain. | |
| birthData | No | Only with `deal`, and with a birth time: the querent's natal commitment calendar is set beside the praśna for the signing date. | |
| askedAtLocal | No | The wall clock at the place when the question was asked, YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm, read in place.timezone. | |
| horaryNumber | No | A KP horary number: adds the KP horary table. |
