Puja Suggestions

asterwise_get_puja_suggestions
Read-onlyIdempotent

Returns puja (ritual worship) recommendations for planetary propitiation per graha.

WORKFLOW: BEFORE: asterwise_get_natal_chart — identify afflicted planets before recommending pujas. AFTER: asterwise_get_rudraksha — complementary bead-based remedy.

INPUT CONTRACT: planet (optional): One of Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu, Ketu. Omit to get all nine planets.

DO NOT CONFUSE WITH: asterwise_get_remedies — personalised remedies from natal chart analysis. asterwise_get_rudraksha — bead recommendations, not puja rituals.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior3/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds workflow context and a link to the output/error contract, but does not itself disclose additional runtime behaviors such as error cases, rate limits, or response structure beyond what the output schema and link provide.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is front-loaded with a clear summary sentence and then uses labeled sections (WORKFLOW, INPUT CONTRACT, DO NOT CONFUSE WITH, link) that each carry distinct value. It is longer than one sentence, but every section earns its place given the large sibling tool list and the need for disambiguation.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With an output schema present and annotations covering the read-only and idempotent behavior, the description provides the remaining essential context: workflow ordering, parameter contract, sibling differentiation, and a link to the full output/error contract. Nothing an agent needs to call this tool correctly is missing.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds meaningful value beyond the schema by enumerating the exact nine planet values and explaining that omitting the planet parameter returns all nine planets, which clarifies the default behavior beyond the schema's default:null.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description opens with a specific verb and resource: 'Returns puja (ritual worship) recommendations for planetary propitiation per graha.' It also distinguishes itself from sibling tools in 'DO NOT CONFUSE WITH', naming asterwise_get_remedies and asterwise_get_rudraksha, so an agent can tell what this tool uniquely does.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The WORKFLOW section explicitly places this tool after asterwise_get_natal_chart and before asterwise_get_rudraksha, giving clear sequencing. The DO NOT CONFUSE WITH section names the nearest alternatives and their different purposes, so an agent knows when not to choose this tool.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

A3.9/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Many tools are well-differentiated by explicit 'DO NOT CONFUSE WITH' notes, but the sheer number of near-neighbor pairs (e.g., crystal vs gemstone recommendations, natal chart variants, dasha systems, compatibility systems, tarot draw variants) creates real selection risk. The descriptions mitigate overlap, but an agent browsing 103 tools will struggle to pick the right one.

Naming Consistency5/5

Every tool follows the asterwise_get_* or asterwise_draw_* prefix convention with a clear noun phrase (e.g., asterwise_get_natal_chart, asterwise_draw_tarot_cards). The two verbs 'get' and 'draw' are semantically appropriate, and there are no camelCase or mixed-style names.

Tool Count1/5

103 tools is far beyond a manageable MCP surface. While the domain is broad (Vedic astrology, Western astrology, numerology, tarot, crystals, dream symbols), the server bundles multiple distinct domains into one namespace, making it nearly impossible for an agent to discover the right tool efficiently.

Completeness4/5

The surface is impressively comprehensive across astrology, numerology, tarot, and remedies, with deep coverage of dasha systems, compatibility frameworks, and chart types. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no tarot interpretation endpoint, no batch operations, no update/delete since it's read-only data), but for a reference/prediction API the coverage is strong.
