    - `product` string, required — Always 'Sugra NetAtlas'.
    - `atlas_built_at` string, nullable — UTC ISO-8601 build time of the atlas snapshot that answered; null only when no connector can vouch for one.
    - `privacy_signal_version` string, required — Version of the privacy/default-route signal set.
    - `confidence` string, required — Confidence of the privacy/default-route signal: high, medium or low.
    - `accuracy` string, required — Accuracy class of the answer (e.g. public, city, country, unknown).
    - `sources` string[], required — Sugra-branded upstream families that contributed.
    - `data_time` string, nullable — When the DATA is from (UTC ISO-8601); null when nothing can vouch for it.

    - `geo_confidence` string, nullable — IP-geo responses only: how trustworthy the resolved city/country is (downgrades for anycast/CDN).
    - `served_from` string, nullable — Where the answer came from (local atlas, live proxy, cache).
    - `fallback_reason` string, nullable — Why a fallback path served the answer, when one did.
    - `sources_coverage` unknown
    - `cached` boolean, nullable — True when the answer was served from the response cache (routes that cache whole answers).

    - `endpoint_version` string, nullable — Endpoint contract version where a route declares one (sources/coverage: v1).

## Other responses

- `401` — Missing or invalid `x-api-key` header. JSON body with a stable `code` distinguishing `missing_api_key` (no header sent) from `invalid_api_key` (header sent, key not accepted); any other 401 source carries the generic `unauthorized` with its detail as `reason`. Plus `hint`. `plan` is always null on 401 - an unauthenticated request has no plan; quota exhaustion is 429, not 401.
- `422` — Validation Error
- `429` — Daily rate limit exceeded. Check `X-RateLimit-Reset` for the next window.
- `503` — Upstream source is temporarily unavailable. Retry after a short delay.
