Vastu Shastra MCP Server by RoxyAPI

Look up one devata - Vastu mandala devata reference API

get_vastu_devatas_id
Read-only

Look up one devata of the Vastu Purusha Mandala: the squares it holds, its ring and side, its pada count, the entrance pada it governs where it sits on the perimeter, and the verses that place it. Case and punctuation in the id are folded, so indra-outer, Indra_Outer and INDRA OUTER all resolve.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
idYesDevata id, lower case transliteration. The two Indras are indra-outer for the east perimeter square and indra-inner for the inner ring one. Case and punctuation are folded.
langNoResponse language (BCP 47). Supported: en, tr, de, es, hi, pt, fr, ru, zh-Hans, zh-Hant. Defaults to en. Coverage varies by domain, and a field with no translation in the requested language returns English.en
compactNoSet true for the same data in a compact shape: arrays of same-shaped objects arrive columnar as {"__cols":[names],"__rows":[[values]]}. Lossless, typically 40 to 52 percent fewer tokens.

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, and the description is consistent with those. It adds value by disclosing id normalization ('Case and punctuation in the id are folded...') and the specific fields returned.

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?

Two sentences with no filler: the first sentence captures the action and the returned data, and the second adds the id-matching behavior. Dense but scannable.

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

Completeness4/5

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

Because there is no output schema, the description compensates by summarizing the returned fields (squares, ring/side, pada count, entrance pada, verses). It is complete enough for selection and invocation, though it does not describe response format or not-found behavior.

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 schema itself already documents id, lang, and compact fully. The description's id-folding note is useful but repeats what the id parameter description already states, so it adds no significant new parameter semantics.

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 states a specific verb and resource: 'Look up one devata of the Vastu Purusha Mandala', and enumerates the exact data returned. The singular 'one devata' distinguishes it from the plural sibling get_vastu_devatas.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

The singular scope ('Look up one devata') makes the primary use case clear and implicitly separates it from the collection-style sibling get_vastu_devatas. It does not explicitly state when-not-to-use or name alternatives, so it stops short of a 5.

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

A4.4/5.0
Disambiguation5/5

Each tool targets a distinct resource or analytical step: reference lookups (devatas, directions) are cleanly separated from computations (ayadi, entrance, mandala, plot, rooms, timing), and the list endpoints are distinguished from their _id counterparts by an explicit suffix. Although three post_ tools accept plot geometry, their outputs are mutually exclusive (grid overlay vs. property verdict vs. room-by-room check), and the descriptions state each purpose with enough precision to prevent misselection.

Naming Consistency5/5

All ten tools follow a uniform lowercase snake_case pattern with a get_ or post_ prefix and the vastu domain token consistently in second position. The get_ prefix is reserved for read-only reference data while post_ marks computational endpoints, and the _id suffix uniformly marks single-item lookups, creating a highly predictable scheme.

Tool Count5/5

Ten tools is a well-scoped count for a domain-specific server covering reference data, analysis, and timing. Each tool earns its place: the two list/detail pairs follow standard API practice without redundancy, and the six computational tools each address a distinct stage of Vastu analysis.

Completeness4/5

The tool surface covers the full Vastu consulting workflow: reference data (devatas, directions), land assessment (plot), grid projection (mandala), entrance validation, room placement, dimensional proportion checks (ayadi), and housewarming date selection (griha pravesh). The only notable gap is that timing is restricted to griha pravesh, leaving other Vastu-related muhurta events like construction commencement uncovered.
