# DHMZ Weather (Croatia)

Croatian Meteorological and Hydrological Service (DHMZ) provides free XML APIs. All data in Croatian, no authentication needed.

## Default Behavior

When this skill is invoked:
1. **If a city is provided as argument** (e.g., `/dhmz-weather Zagreb`): Immediately fetch and display weather for that city
2. **If no city is provided**: Infer the city from conversation context (user's location, previously mentioned cities, or project context). If no context available, default to **Zagreb** (capital city)

**Do not ask the user what they want** - just fetch the weather data immediately and present it in a readable format.

- Updates vary: current data ~hourly, forecasts ~daily

Extract specific station with xmllint:

```bash

```

Convert to JSON (requires `xq` from yq package):

```bash
curl -s "https://vrijeme.hr/hrvatska_n.xml" | xq .
```
