Monthly Declination Parallels - Parallel and contraparallel events for a month

post_vedic_astrology_parallels_monthly
Read-only

Find all declination parallel and contraparallel events between the 7 visible planets for a given month. Parallels occur when two planets share the same celestial declination (equivalent to conjunction in strength). Contraparallels occur at opposite declinations (equivalent to opposition). Scanned daily at noon UTC. Omit year and month to get the month in progress, so a published parallel calendar stays current without a redeploy. Essential for advanced transit analysis and hidden aspect discovery. Monthly declination parallels API, planetary parallel ephemeris, contraparallel event calendar.

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
yearNoYear for monthly parallel analysis (1551 to 2649). Defaults to the current year (UTC).
monthNoMonth number (1-12) for parallel analysis. 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).

  10. First observed

TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations cover the read-only safety profile, so the description only needs to add context — and it does: 'Scanned daily at noon UTC' discloses the sampling cadence, the planet set is bounded to the 7 visible planets, and the default-to-current-month behavior is spelled out. It does not disclose response shape, pagination, or volume, but the output schema presumably carries that.

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 operative content is front-loaded and the definition of parallels/contraparallels is genuinely useful. However, the closing string 'Monthly declination parallels API, planetary parallel ephemeris, contraparallel event calendar' is keyword padding that adds no invocation value and dilutes the definition.

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?

For a read-only calendar lookup with an output schema and full annotation coverage, the description supplies the concept definitions, the sampling cadence, and the default-window behavior an agent needs. Only return-volume expectations are unaddressed, which the output schema can cover.

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%, so lang, year, month, compact, and timezone are already fully documented. The description's only added semantic is the year/month omission rule, which duplicates the schema defaults. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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?

States a specific verb (Find), resource (declination parallel and contraparallel events), scope (7 visible planets, given month), and even defines the phenomena. It is clearly distinguishable from post_vedic_astrology_parallels and the other post_* tools by being the monthly event calendar over the visible planets.

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?

Gives a concrete usage rule: 'Omit year and month to get the month in progress, so a published parallel calendar stays current without a redeploy.' That tells the agent when to send no dates. It does not name the sibling tool (e.g. post_vedic_astrology_parallels) as an alternative or state when not to use this one.

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