| orb | no | Conjunction orb in degrees |
- Index ignores magnitude_limit. It always returns the full catalog as fixed_stars plus total_count.
- Named show requires year/month/day and returns {date, star} where star is position merged with info.
- Conjunction items are {star, planet, star_longitude, planet_longitude, orb} plus orb_used and total_count.
- Register /conjunctions before /:name so the path is not treated as a star named conjunctions.
