Input Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`city`	No
`date`	Yes
`name`	No
`time`	Yes
`fields`	No	Compact mode: comma-separated dotted paths to keep, relative to `data`, e.g. "planets.name,planets.longitude,houses.cusp". Omit for the whole response.
`ayanamsa`	No	Sidereal school by name. Lahiri when omitted. Equivalent to ayanamsaId; send either.
`latitude`	Yes
`timezone`	No	IANA zone name such as Europe/Kyiv, or auto to look the zone up from latitude and longitude. The server takes the offset that zone kept at this local date and time, summer time included, and uses it in place of timezoneOffset. A clock time that happened twice takes the first occurrence; one skipped when clocks went forward takes the offset from before the change. Abbreviations such as EST are refused. Before 1970 the tz database is not reliable for every place, so send timezoneOffset when the local clock is known.
`cosmogram`	No
`longitude`	Yes
`precision`	No	Compact mode: round fractional numbers to this many decimals. Longitudes carry 14 by default; 2 is finer than any chart is drawn.
`ayanamsaId`	No
`zodiacType`	No
`houseSystem`	No		P
`timezoneOffset`	No	Hours from UTC at the given moment, not minutes. Fractional zones are hours too: 5.5 for India, 5.75 for Nepal, -3.5 for Newfoundland. Defaults to 0, meaning UTC. Ignored when timezone is sent.

Output Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`source`	No
`doctrine`	No
`perPlanet`	No
`disclaimer`	No
`egyptianBoundsTable`	No

C2.6/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds genuinely useful non-schema facts: the POST endpoint and the 10-credit Tier 1 cost, which an agent planning a call cannot see elsewhere. It still says nothing about chart prerequisites or what the response contains, so it is additive but thin.

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?

It is short and front-loaded with the resource name, and the bracketed metadata lines are scannable rather than prose padding. However, the space saved is spent on boilerplate (endpoint path, tier label) while the substance — what bounds are and how they are returned — is absent, so it is under-specified rather than truly concise.

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

Completeness2/5

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

An output schema exists, so return values need not be described. But for a 15-parameter chart calculator with low schema coverage and many near-duplicate siblings, a one-line description plus routing metadata is not enough for an agent to invoke it confidently; the domain concept (bounds) is never explained.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema description coverage is 33% across 15 parameters, so the description must compensate and does not. It only restates the four required fields (date, time, latitude, longitude) that the schema already marks required, and says nothing about the ambiguous fields (zodiacType, ayanamsa vs ayanamsaId, houseSystem, fields, precision) that most need explanation.

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

Purpose3/5

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

"Ptolemaic Egyptian bounds rulers." names a specific astrological resource and the tradition (Hand/Egyptian), which separates it from siblings like decanic_rulers or critical_degrees. But it is a bare noun phrase with no verb, so it never states what the tool actually does with that resource (compute the bounds lord per planet? list the table?).

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

There is no when-to-use guidance, no condition under which a caller should pick this over the other ~10 hellenistic_hand_* tools, and no prerequisites. The only routing signal is the bracketed group/endpoint metadata, which is implied context rather than guidance.

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