## Setup

Read your credentials from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json:
```bash
export GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json'))['api_key'])")
export GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json')).get('api_base','https://api.gooseworks.ai'))")
```

If ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json does not exist, tell the user to run: `npx gooseworks login`

Weather

Setup

Read your credentials from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json:

export GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json'))['api_key'])")
export GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json')).get('api_base','https://api.gooseworks.ai'))")

If ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json does not exist, tell the user to run: npx gooseworks login

All endpoints use Bearer auth: -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY"

Get weather data using free services - no API keys needed.

wttr.in (Primary)

Fast, simple, works everywhere.

Quick check:

curl -s "wttr.in/London?format=3"
# Output: London: ⛅️ +8°C

Compact format:

curl -s "wttr.in/London?format=%l:+%c+%t+%h+%w"
# Output: London: ⛅️ +8°C 71% ↙5km/h

Full forecast:

curl -s "wttr.in/London?T"

Format Codes

Code	Meaning
`%c`	Weather condition emoji
`%t`	Temperature
`%h`	Humidity
`%w`	Wind
`%l`	Location
`%m`	Moon phase

Tips

URL-encode spaces: wttr.in/New+York or wttr.in/San%20Francisco
Airport codes work: wttr.in/JFK, wttr.in/SFO
Units: ?m metric, ?u USCS (Fahrenheit)
Limit days: ?1 today only, ?0 current only
Save as image: curl -s "wttr.in/Berlin.png" -o weather.png

Open-Meteo (JSON API)

Better for programmatic use. Free, no key.

curl -s "https://api.open-meteo.com/v1/forecast?latitude=37.77&longitude=-122.42&current_weather=true"

Response includes: temperature, windspeed, weathercode, time.

Get coordinates first

curl -s "https://geocoding-api.open-meteo.com/v1/search?name=San+Francisco&count=1"

Examples

San Francisco right now:

curl -s "wttr.in/San+Francisco?format=3"

Tokyo 3-day forecast:

curl -s "wttr.in/Tokyo?3T"

JSON weather for coordinates:

curl -s "https://api.open-meteo.com/v1/forecast?latitude=35.68&longitude=139.69&current_weather=true&hourly=temperature_2m"
