Remedies

asterwise_get_remedies
Read-onlyIdempotent

Derives classical remedial prescriptions from planetary weakness, dusthana lordship or placement, and combustion. Returns mantra, lifestyle, charity, and dignity tables.

WORKFLOW: BEFORE: RECOMMENDED — asterwise_get_natal_chart — chart context before choosing remedies. AFTER: asterwise_get_gemstone_recommendations — optional focused gem briefing.

INPUT CONTRACT: BirthData follows the global contract.

DO NOT CONFUSE WITH: asterwise_get_lal_kitab_remedies — household Lal Kitab totkas, not mantra/gem classical rows. asterwise_get_gemstone_recommendations — gemstone roles and contraindications only, not full lifestyle remedies.

  6. First observed

TDQS

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare read-only, idempotent, non-destructive, closed-world, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds derivation logic, the returned table set, the global BirthData input contract, and a link to the full output/error contract, which is meaningful context beyond the annotations. It stops short of rate limits or auth notes.

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?

Front-loads the purpose, then organizes workflow, input contract, and sibling disambiguation under clear labels. Every section earns its place and there is no filler.

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, return values need not be re-explained, and the description instead supplies the routing context, sibling exclusions, and input contract reference an agent needs. Nothing required to call it correctly is missing.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the nested birth object and response_format enum are fully documented in the schema itself. The description only notes that BirthData follows the global contract, adding no parameter-specific syntax or format detail beyond what the schema provides.

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?

States a specific verb (Derives) and resource (classical remedial prescriptions) and names the exact derivation basis (planetary weakness, dusthana lordship, combustion) plus the returned tables (mantra, lifestyle, charity, dignity). It explicitly distinguishes itself from the two nearest siblings, so an agent can tell it apart without opening schemas.

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?

Provides explicit BEFORE/AFTER workflow routing and a DO NOT CONFUSE WITH section naming asterwise_get_lal_kitab_remedies and asterwise_get_gemstone_recommendations with the distinguishing condition for each. Both when-to-use and when-not-to-use are covered, leaving nothing to inference.

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