Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
dateYesBirth date in YYYY-MM-DD format
timeYesBirth time in 24-hour HH:MM:SS format
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.
ayanamsaNoAyanamsa system for sidereal conversion. "kp-newcomb" uses the KP-Newcomb dynamic formula (most common for KP). "kp-old" uses the Krishnamurti original table. "lahiri" uses Lahiri/Chitrapaksha ayanamsa matching most traditional Vedic software. "raman" uses the B.V. Raman ayanamsa, about 1.45 degrees below Lahiri. "custom" allows providing your own value via ayanamsaValue. Defaults to "kp-newcomb".kp-newcomb
latitudeYesBirth location latitude in decimal degrees
nodeTypeNoLunar node convention. "mean" is the smoothed average node, which always moves retrograde; "true" is the osculating node, which tracks the real perturbed node, oscillates up to about 1.5 degrees either side of the mean on a 173-day cycle, and can briefly turn direct. Neither is more correct and they almost always fall in the same sign. Applies to the Rahu and Ketu positions. Mean is the traditional Vedic default and what printed panchangs use; the choice can move a KP sub-lord in narrow boundary cases, where a span can be as small as 0.5 degrees. Defaults to "mean".mean
timezoneNoTimezone offset from UTC in hours. Defaults to 5.5 (IST) for Vedic astrology.
longitudeYesBirth location longitude in decimal degrees
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

B3.4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, so the description's burden is lower. It adds that the tool returns detailed calculations with specific fields, but does not disclose performance, rate limits, or boundary conditions. No contradiction with annotations.

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 action in the first sentence and return details in the second. The third sentence is promotional and the fourth is an SEO keyword list, which adds some fluff. Still, it is relatively concise and readable.

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

Completeness3/5

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

Given the tool's complexity (9 parameters, no output schema), the description mentions the return fields but does not specify the structure (e.g., array vs. object) or provide details on error handling, validation, or edge cases. The schema covers input well, but the output representation is incomplete.

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?

Input schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description does not add any parameter-specific meaning; it only describes the output. The schema itself is detailed, so the description adds no extra value for parameters.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description clearly states it gets planetary positions with KP star-lord and sub-lord calculations and lists the return fields. It is distinct from siblings like 'kp_cusps' or 'kp_chart' by name and focus, but does not explicitly differentiate from 'kp_planets_interval' or other KP tools.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description says it is 'essential for KP astrology software, significator analysis, and event prediction,' which gives implied usage context, but it does not mention when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'kp_planets_interval' or 'kp_horary', nor does it provide exclusion criteria.

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.
