Runtime dependency clarification
-------------------------------

The core runtime library of this project is independent from external C ephemeris libraries:
- astrolib_core.php
- astrolib_natal.php
- natal_chart.php

These files run without external C ephemeris libraries.

Optional benchmark-only tooling
-------------------------------

Some scripts under tests/ can optionally use external reference tooling only to
validate numerical accuracy against an external reference.
This is optional and not required to run the library in production.

Examples of benchmark-only files:
- tests/generate_houses_reference.py
- tests/houses_reference_*.json
- tests/houses_accuracy_benchmark.php

If you choose to use external reference tooling, their own licensing terms apply.
