## Rules for an agent

- Point Forecast is a POST to https://api.windy.com/api/point-forecast/v2 with the key in the JSON body; the free Testing key returns shuffled data, so never ship it to production.
- Testing keys are for development only and return randomly shuffled data; production use needs the Professional plan (990 EUR/year for Point or Map Forecast).
- Webcams free plan: link images to windy.com or use the embed timelapse player; image URLs expire after 15 minutes.
- Keys are per product; a key for one Windy API does not work for another.
