Get KP ruling planets with optional significators

post_vedic_astrology_kp_ruling_planets
Read-only

Calculate the 5 ruling planets at any moment using Krishnamurti Paddhati horary astrology. Returns Day Lord, Moon Sign/Star/Sub Lord, Lagna Sign/Star/Sub Lord. Optionally provide birth data (birthDate, birthTime) to include significators showing which houses each ruling planet signifies in the birth chart - essential for KP prediction.

Input Schema

TableJSON 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
focusNoWhich signification vocabulary the houseThemes map returns. "general" gives the classical bhava significations (self, wealth, siblings, home, and so on). "finance" gives the money reading of the same twelve bhavas, so house 2 returns income and savings, 5 speculation and risk appetite, 8 sudden money and leverage, 11 gains and profits, and 12 expenses and capital outflow. Use "finance" for wealth, income, business and market timing questions in Krishnamurti Paddhati, where the significator house groups 2, 6, 10, 11 for earned income and 5, 8, 11 for speculation are read against a running dasha. Defaults to "general".general
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.
datetimeNoISO 8601 datetime (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS) for ruling planets. Defaults to current time. Interpreted as local time when a non-zero timezone is provided (a trailing Z is accepted but ignored); with timezone 0 it is UTC.
latitudeYesObserver 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: IANA name (e.g. "America/New_York", "Europe/London") OR decimal hours from UTC. IANA resolved to the DST-correct offset based on birthDate or datetime. Defaults to 5.5.
birthDateNoBirth date (YYYY-MM-DD) to calculate significators. If provided with birthTime, response includes which houses each ruling planet signifies.
birthTimeNoBirth time (HH:MM:SS) for significator calculation. Required if birthDate is provided.
longitudeYesObserver longitude in decimal degrees

TDQS

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 adds no contradictions. It goes beyond the annotations by specifying the computed fields, the optional birth-data condition that changes output (only includes significators when birthDate and birthTime are provided), and what those significators mean (which houses are signified) — useful context and not a read-only operation.

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?

The description is two tightly-worded sentences, front-loading the core calculation and its outputs, then conditionally addressing the optional significators. No redundant content; each clause adds either a behavioral detail or use context.

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?

There is no output schema, so the description correctly takes on the job of stating the essential return components (Day Lord, Moon Sign/Star/Sub Lord, Lagna Sign/Star/Sub Lord) and the optional return addition (significators with the relevant houses). Given the 10-parameter complexity, it does not need to repeat schema-coverd parameter details, but it stays generic about the exact response shape (e.g., JSON field names/nesting), which is a minor gap.

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

Parameters4/5

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

With schema description coverage at 100%, a baseline of 3 applies. The description adds semantic meaning by explaining the purpose of the birthData parameters (birthDate and birthTime) — 'include significators showing which houses each ruling planet signifies in the birth chart' — which is valuable domain framing beyond the schema's mechanical descriptions of 'date' and 'time'.

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 uses a specific verb ('calculate'), a concrete resource ('the 5 ruling planets'), and method ('Krishnamurti Paddhati horary astrology'), and lists the exact output ingredients (Day Lord, Moon Sign/Star/Sub Lord, Lagna Sign/Star/Sub Lord). The phrase 'at any moment' distinguishes this from interval-based siblings like post_vedic_astrology_kp_ruling_planets_interval.

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 implies usage: it is for computing ruling planets for a moment and optionally adding birth chart significators for KP prediction ('essential for KP prediction'). However, it does not explicitly state when to choose this tool versus the many alternative KP tools (e.g., kp_planets, kp_horary, kp_cusps, or the interval variant), nor any exclusions.

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.
