Get Shadbala, Bhava Bala and Ishta/Kashta phala — how strong each planet and house is. Call this for "which planet is strongest", "is Saturn strong enough", or "which houses are weak". Shadbala is the six-fold Parasari strength; a planet meets expectation when `ratio` >= 1. Read `ratio` (>= 1 means the planet clears its own bar) and `rank_by_ratio` when saying a planet is strong or weak; the summary's `meets_requirement` lists every planet that qualifies. Each planet has its own `required_rupa`, so plain `rank` (absolute `total_rupa`) frequently disagrees: a planet can clear its own bar and still rank low overall. Use `strongest_by_ratio` / `weakest_by_ratio` for interpretation; the bare `strongest` / `weakest` keys are absolute-rupa based and kept only for backward compatibility. Args: chart_id: Handle returned by create_chart. detail: "summary" (default) gives totals, both ranks, ratio and Ishta/Kashta per planet. "full" adds the six sub-bala breakdowns and is several times larger — ask for it only when the components matter. Ishta phala is benefic capacity, Kashta phala malefic; they are derived from Shadbala, not independent measurements.
