Decennials

astroway_hellenistic_hand_decennials
Read-onlyIdempotent

Calculate Hand’s decennial timing periods from birth data to map life-stage activations and identify time periods for Hellenistic astrology analysis.

Instructions

Hand's decennial timing technique.

[Group: Hellenistic: Hand tradition] [Endpoint: POST /v1/hellenistic/hand/decennials] [Cost: 10 credits (Tier 1)]

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
bodyYesBirth data for a single natal chart. Required: date (YYYY-MM-DD), time (HH:mm:ss), latitude and longitude in decimal degrees. The short forms lat, lon, lng and tz are rejected with 400 INVALID_FIELD; pass the full names. timezoneOffset is hours from UTC and defaults to 0, meaning UTC; send timezone instead (an IANA name such as Europe/Kyiv, or auto) and the offset for that date is worked out, summer time included. city is a display label only: nothing here geocodes it, so it never stands in for coordinates. houseSystem is a single house-system letter, P by default; a name such as "Placidus" is refused, and the case matters because I and i are two different Sunshine systems.

  2. Addedv1.6.0

TDQS

C2.8/5.0
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 fully covered. The description adds genuinely non-structured context — a 10-credit Tier 1 cost and the POST endpoint — which matters for an agent budgeting calls, but says nothing about computational behavior or what the technique yields.

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 prose is a single sentence with no filler, and the bracketed group/endpoint/cost lines are scannable metadata rather than padding. It is efficient, though the efficiency comes partly from saying very little.

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 explained, and the input schema is exhaustive. But for a specialized astrological timing technique with many near-identical siblings, the description gives no conceptual framing of what the decennials technique computes or how lifespanYears shapes the result — an agent cannot judge fitness from this text alone.

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 the nested birth-data body and the lifespanYears parameter are thoroughly documented in the schema itself, including format rules, timezone handling and house-system letters. The description adds no parameter meaning beyond that, so the baseline of 3 applies.

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?

The description names a specific technique ("Hand's decennial timing technique"), which distinguishes it from siblings like profections or zodiacal releasing by label alone. However, there is no verb and no statement of what the tool actually produces — a time-lord sequence, period table, or chart overlay — so an agent unfamiliar with the technique learns only the name.

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 prerequisites, and no mention of alternatives among the many other Hellenistic timing tools (perfections, profections, zodiacal releasing, time_lord_stack). The agent must already know the technique to know when to call it.

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