Check Sadhesati - Sade Sati Calculator API (Saturn Transit)

post_vedic_astrology_dosha_sadhesati
Read-only

Calculate Sadhesati (Sade Sati) periods when Saturn transits 12th, 1st, and 2nd houses from natal Moon. Accurate sade sati calculator with current status and phase identification (Rising/Peak/Setting). Shani sadhesati 7.5 year period tracker. Returns Saturn transit dates and effects on life. Essential for Saturn transit analysis, sadhesati remedies timing, and understanding challenging Saturn periods in Vedic astrology. Important for timing major life decisions.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
dateYesBirth date in YYYY-MM-DD format. Date determines planetary positions and nakshatra calculations for Vedic kundli (janam patri). Accurate birth date is essential for dashas, yoga calculations, and divisional charts (vargas).
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
timeYesBirth time in 24-hour HH:MM:SS format. Time is CRITICAL for Lagna (Ascendant) calculation and house divisions. It changes every two hours roughly. Even minutes matter for accurate nakshatra pada and divisional chart (D9, D10) calculations. Without exact time, Lagna and house-based predictions will be incorrect.
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.
ayanamsaNoSidereal frame (ayanamsa) the chart is cast in. "lahiri" is Lahiri/Chitrapaksha, the traditional Vedic standard used by most software, and is the default. "raman" is the B.V. Raman ayanamsa from Hindu Predictive Astrology, about 1.45 degrees below Lahiri. "kp-newcomb" and "kp-old" are the two Krishnamurti Paddhati frames. "custom" takes your own value in degrees via ayanamsaValue, for reconciling exactly against a specific reference program. The frame rotates the whole zodiac, so a graha sitting within 1.45 degrees of a boundary can change rashi or nakshatra when you switch: pick the one your reference software uses and keep it.lahiri
latitudeYesBirth location latitude in decimal degrees. Location determines local sidereal time for Lagna calculation and affects bhava (house) cusps. Example: Delhi 28.6139, Mumbai 19.0760, Kathmandu 27.7172.
timezoneNoTimezone: IANA name (e.g. "America/New_York", "Europe/London") OR decimal hours from UTC (e.g. -5 for EST, 1 for CET). IANA strings are resolved to the DST-correct offset for the given date, so you can pass `cities[0].timezone` from /location/search directly. Defaults to 5.5.
longitudeYesBirth location longitude in decimal degrees. Affects local time calculations and ayanamsha adjustments. Example: Delhi 77.2090, Mumbai 72.8777, Kathmandu 85.3240.
ayanamsaValueNoCustom ayanamsa value in degrees. When provided, overrides the computed ayanamsa from the selected type. Use for testing with specific ayanamsa values or matching a particular reference source.

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false. The description adds context beyond the annotations by saying the output includes 'current status and phase identification' and 'Saturn transit dates and effects on life.' It describes the conceptual computation but does not explain the output shape, response size, or any edge cases like date/time ranges.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

The opening sentence is strong and front-loaded. However, there is redundancy: 'Accurate sade sati calculator', 'Shani sadhesati 7.5 year period tracker', and the repeated references to Saturn transit analysis and remedies add promotional filler. A more concise version would keep the first sentence plus phase and return-value info.

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 9 parameters and no output schema, the description provides sufficient conceptual framing: the core calculation, phases, and general return type (dates, effects). It lacks an explicit output structure or example, but for a calculator-style API the level of detail is adequate.

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%, with all nine parameters individually documented. The description does not add parameter-specific meaning beyond the schema and does not reference the parameters by name. This matches the baseline of 3 for high schema_description_coverage.

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 ('Calculate') and resource ('Sadhesati/Sade Sati periods') with the exact condition 'Saturn transits 12th, 1st, and 2nd houses from natal Moon.' It also mentions phase identification (Rising/Peak/Setting), clearly distinguishing it from other dosha tools and generic transit tools among the siblings.

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 gives strong usage contexts: 'Essential for Saturn transit analysis, sadhesati remedies timing, and timing major life decisions.' However, it does not explicitly exclude alternatives or name sibling tools (e.g., generic post_vedic_astrology_transit) that might also be relevant, so it lacks full when-not guidance.

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

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Many tools have overlapping concepts (multiple dasha levels, monthly variants, aspects, transit), but detailed descriptions clarify each one's distinct purpose. Still, a few pairs like planetary_positions vs birth_chart or aspects_monthly vs aspects_lunar could confuse an agent initially.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tools follow a strict get_vedic_astrology_* or post_vedic_astrology_* prefix with snake_case resource names. The pattern is predictable and uniformly applied, including the hierarchical dasha drill-downs, making it easy to infer tool families.

Tool Count1/5

With 50 tools, the server is extremely heavy. Many are monthly, interval, or sub-level variants that could be parameterized or consolidated, making the set feel bloated and difficult to navigate for an agent.

Completeness5/5

The tool set covers nearly the entire Vedic astrology domain: reference data (nakshatras, rashis, yoga glossary), core charts (birth, navamsa, divisional), dasha hierarchy, transits, compatibility, doshas, panchang, KP system, and advanced calculations like Shadbala and Ashtakavarga. No significant gaps are apparent.
