Secondary Progressions

astroway_prognostics_progressions

Read-onlyIdempotent

Calculates a day-for-a-year secondary progressed chart for a target date, returning progressed planets, houses, angles, and aspects from natal birth data.

Instructions

Calculate secondary progressed chart (day-for-a-year) for a target date. Returns progressed planets, houses and angles, and the aspects between progressed planets.

Addedv1.6.0Oct 24, 2026

TDQS

A3.6/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already establish the read-only, idempotent, non-destructive, closed-world profile, so the bar is lower. The description still adds genuinely useful operational context beyond them: the POST endpoint and a concrete cost of 50 credits (Tier 3), which an agent cannot get from annotations, plus a summary of returned components.

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?

Two tight sentences with the operation front-loaded, followed by structured metadata lines (group, endpoint, cost) that are scannable rather than prose padding. Nothing is redundant within the description itself.

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

Completeness5/5

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 no elaboration, and the input schema is fully documented. Given the tool's modest complexity, the description plus annotations plus schema give an agent everything needed to call it correctly; only cross-tool selection guidance is absent, which is scored separately.

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% with detailed nested descriptions covering date/time formats, coordinate conventions, timezone handling, and house-system letters, so the schema does the heavy lifting. The description only echoes "target date" and adds no further parameter meaning, which is the expected baseline here.

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 gives a specific verb and resource ("Calculate secondary progressed chart") and even defines the technique ("day-for-a-year") for a target date. It is unambiguous about what is computed, though it never names the sibling progression tools (minor, tertiary) to sharpen the distinction.

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 at all: nothing says when secondary progressions are preferred over tertiary/minor progressions, symbolic directions, or profections, which are all present as siblings. The only contextual hint is "for a target date," which the schema already implies.

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