Monthly Lunar Aspects - Moon aspect events with all planets for a month

post_vedic_astrology_aspects_lunar
Read-only

Track all lunar aspect events for a given month including major and minor aspects. The Moon traverses approximately 13 degrees per day, forming 22 aspect types with each planet. 5 major (conjunction, opposition, trine, square, sextile) and 17 minor (vigintile, semi-sextile, undecile, semi-quintile, novile, semi-square, septile, quintile, binovile, centile, biseptile, tredecile, sesqui-square, bi-quintile, quincunx, triseptile, quadranovile). Returns exact date and time of each Moon aspect event with ternary search refinement to the minute. Omit year and month to get the month in progress, so a published lunar calendar stays current without a redeploy. Essential for muhurta selection, daily panchang analysis, and chandra gochar predictions. Monthly lunar aspects API, Moon transit calendar, chandra drishti ephemeris, minor lunar aspects.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
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
yearNoYear for monthly analysis (1900-2100). Defaults to the current year (UTC).
monthNoMonth number (1-12). Defaults to the current month (UTC).
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.
timezoneNoTimezone: an IANA name (e.g. "America/New_York", "Europe/London", or `cities[0].timezone` from /location/search) or decimal hours from UTC (e.g. -5 for EST, 5.5 for IST). An IANA name is resolved once, at the start of the window, and that offset applies to every time in the response. Output times are converted to this timezone. Defaults to 0 (UTC).
coordinateSystemNoCoordinate system for longitude output. "sidereal" (Nirayana) uses Lahiri ayanamsa, the standard for Vedic astrology. "tropical" (Sayana) uses raw ecliptic longitude matching Western astrology. Defaults to "sidereal".sidereal

  10. First observed

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, covering the safety profile. The description adds behavioral details: 'Returns exact date and time of each Moon aspect event with ternary search refinement to the minute' and explains the default behavior of omitting year/month for a current calendar. These go beyond the annotations and help the agent understand precision and default behavior, though it doesn't mention any limitations like pagination or rate limits.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is front-loaded with the main purpose and then provides useful technical details (aspect types, precision, default behavior, use cases). It is somewhat long due to enumerating all 22 aspect types, but each sentence contributes meaningful information. The trailing keywords ('Monthly lunar aspects API...') are arguably redundant, but they don't detract significantly from clarity. Overall, it is appropriately sized for the tool's complexity.

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?

Given the tool has an output schema (not shown but present), the description need not detail return values. It covers the core functionality, precision, default behavior, and use cases. It does not mention timezone handling, coordinate system, or response format, but these are all documented in the input schema. For a read-only tool with six optional parameters, the description is sufficiently complete for an agent to invoke it correctly.

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?

The input schema has 100% description coverage for all six parameters, so the baseline is 3. The description mentions the year/month default behavior ('Omit year and month to get the month in progress') which aligns with the schema's default values, but adds no new parameter-specific semantics. The detailed list of aspect types does not relate to parameter usage, so the description provides minimal value beyond the schema.

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 clearly states the tool's function: 'Track all lunar aspect events for a given month including major and minor aspects.' It specifies the resource (lunar aspects), scope (monthly), and enumerates the aspect types. It distinguishes itself from siblings by explicitly focusing on lunar aspects, and mentions it returns exact dates/times, making the purpose unmistakable.

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 description provides clear context on when to use it: 'Essential for muhurta selection, daily panchang analysis, and chandra gochar predictions.' It also implies that omitting year/month gives the current month, which is a usage nuance. However, it does not explicitly mention alternatives or when not to use it, such as pointing to post_vedic_astrology_aspects_monthly for non-lunar aspects, so it lacks explicit exclusions.

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