+# Weather Nearby API Implementation Plan
+
+> **For Claude:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task.
+
+**Goal:** Add GET /api/v1/weather/nearby endpoint to find weather stations within a radius of a lat/lon point
+
+**Architecture:** Phoenix controller → PreparedQueries context function → PostGIS ST_DWithin query → JSON view. Uses existing spatial indexes and follows established API patterns.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Phoenix, Ecto, PostGIS, ExUnit
+
+---
+
+## Task 1: Add Database Query Function
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `lib/aprsme/packets/prepared_queries.ex:211` (add new function at end)

+**Step 1: Write the failing test**

+---
+
+## Task 4: Run Full Test Suite
+
+**Step 1: Run all tests**
+
+Run: `mix test`
+
+Expected: All tests PASS
+

+## Task 5: Manual Verification
+
+**Step 1: Start the development server**
+

+
+**Step 2: Test the endpoint with curl**
+
+```bash
+# Valid request
+curl "http://localhost:4000/api/v1/weather/nearby?lat=37.7749&lon=-122.4194&radius=25"
+
+# With optional parameters

+
+# Invalid parameters
+curl "http://localhost:4000/api/v1/weather/nearby?lat=91&lon=-122.4194&radius=25"
+```
+
+**Step 3: Verify responses match expected format**
+
+Check that:
+- Valid requests return 200 with data and meta
+- Invalid parameters return 400/422 with error messages
+- Empty results return 200 with empty array
+
+---
+
+## Summary
+
+This plan implements the weather nearby API endpoint following TDD principles:
+
+1. **Database query function** - PostGIS spatial query with ST_DWithin
+2. **JSON view** - Response formatting with weather data
+3. **Controller** - Parameter validation and request handling
+4. **Router** - Endpoint registration
+5. **Testing** - Comprehensive unit and integration tests
+
+All code follows existing patterns in the codebase (PreparedQueries, API controllers, JSON views).
