# Astro Agents Vedic Kundli API

> Astro Agents Vedic Kundli API is a paid API for AI agents from astro-agents-api.vercel.app, paid per call via x402, $0.15/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-11).

Generates a deterministic Vedic astrology birth chart (kundli) using the NASA/JPL DE440 ephemeris for a given birth location and time.

## Facts

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability astro-agents-vedic-kundli-api-5be98ee2 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you generate a Vedic kundli for someone born on March 15, 1990 at 6:30 AM in Mumbai (latitude 19.076, longitude 72.877), using the Lahiri ayanamsa and whole sign house system?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fully deterministic, reproducible Vedic astrology birth chart backed by the authoritative NASA/JPL DE440 ephemeris — not an LLM approximation. It is ideal for applications that require verifiable outputs (via SHA-256 hash), support for multiple Vedic house systems and ayanamsas (Lahiri, Krishnamurti, Raman, etc.), and AI agent pipelines that need structured JSON output for downstream reasoning or display.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required latitude or longitude returns a validation error
- Invalid date or time format causes a parsing failure
- Timezone string not recognized results in an error
- Latitude or longitude out of valid range (-90 to 90 / -180 to 180) causes rejection
- Ambiguous local time without specifying ambiguous_time option may default to earlier occurrence silently

## How this service works

Deterministic Western + Vedic astrology API for AI agents: JPL DE440 ephemeris, no LLM, reproducible SHA-256 hashes.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing: Vedic lagna (ascendant degree and sign), moon rashi, janma nakshatra, lagna lord, list of exalted planets, plus metadata including the ephemeris version used, a deterministic SHA-256 hash of the result, and a flag confirming no LLM was used in the computation.
