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, which is 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

  9. First observed

TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds useful behavioral context about the output composition and the optional significator calculation, which goes beyond the annotations without contradicting them.

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 sentences with no filler. It front-loads the primary purpose, specifies the return contents, and then introduces the optional birth-data condition. Every word earns its place.

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 rich input schema (100% parameter documentation) and the presence of an output schema, the description covers the core purpose and the key optional behavior. It could mention the interval sibling or how the tool fits against other KP tools, but nothing an agent needs to call it correctly is missing.

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 coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds some meaning by explaining that birthDate and birthTime together enable significators, but this is already stated in the schema descriptions; the added value is minimal.

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 the tool calculates the 5 ruling planets at a specific moment using KP horary astrology, and it lists the exact returned components (Day Lord, Moon and Lagna sign/star/sub lords). It implies a single-moment calculation in contrast to the sibling interval tool, though it does not explicitly name the alternative, so it stops short of a full 5.

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?

It gives clear context for when to use the tool (any moment) and provides a specific conditional: provide birthDate and birthTime when significators are needed, noting this is essential for KP prediction. It does not mention exclusions or directly compare with siblings, but the guidance is actionable.

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