Tertiary Progressions

astroway_prognostics_tertiary_progressions

Read-onlyIdempotent

Calculate tertiary progressions from natal chart data to a target date, with converse direction support, to analyze symbolic astrological timing.

Instructions

Calculate tertiary progressions (day-for-a-lunar-month) to a target date. Supports converse direction.

TDQS

B3.2/5.0

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 safety is covered. The description does add real value with cost (50 credits, Tier 3) and the endpoint, which an agent budgeting calls needs, but it says nothing about output shape or precision/limits despite an output schema existing.

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 sentences of substance followed by compact tagged metadata lines for group, endpoint and cost; nothing is padded and the core purpose is front-loaded. The bracketed metadata is slightly mechanical but earns its place by conveying cost.

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 an output schema (so return values need not be described) and annotations covering safety, the description supplies the remaining agent-relevant facts: the technique definition, direction support, and credit cost. Missing only a note on what distinguishes tertiary from secondary/minor progressions in practice.

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% and the body schema documents birth data and target date thoroughly, so the baseline is 3. The description only echoes two schema concepts (target date, converse), adding no syntax or validation detail beyond what the schema already supplies.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ("Calculate tertiary progressions") and even defines the technique parenthetically as "day-for-a-lunar-month," which is what separates it from the sibling minor/secondary progression tools. It stops short of naming those siblings explicitly, so the differentiation is technical rather than direct.

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?

No when-to-use or when-not guidance is given; the agent must already know what tertiary progressions are and why to pick them over astroway_prognostics_progressions or astroway_prognostics_minor_progressions. "Supports converse direction" is the only behavioral hint about usage.

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