What's around a place (OpenStreetMap, national)

Returns nearby OpenStreetMap places for a US address or point: food, groceries, schools, healthcare, parks, transit, civic buildings, worship, banks, and fuel or EV, with distance and an OSM verify link. North Carolina uses AddressNC; elsewhere, OSM geocoding. Mapped places only, not a full inventory or an area judgment. Use this when you can call Locus free tools (REST tools/call or MCP). Use locus-nearby-places instead when your client can only call paid x402 routes; it returns the same records. Direct flat-body route for this one free resource; no API key, payment, or catalog wrapper. Return only the cited bounded evidence described here; this route never produces a paid brief or full report.
