# Maha Strategies Celestial Position Snapshot

> Maha Strategies Celestial Position Snapshot is a paid API for AI agents from www.mahastrategies.com, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Calculates geocentric longitudes for seven classical celestial bodies at a given UTC instant in both Tropical and Lahiri Sidereal frames, returning a deterministic integrity receipt.

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 maha-strategies-celestial-position-snapshot-45ff8cdc -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Calculate the geocentric positions of the seven classical planets right now — give me both Tropical and Lahiri Sidereal longitudes, and include the integrity receipt so I can verify the result.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a deterministic, auditable snapshot of classical planetary longitudes at a specific UTC instant in both Tropical and Lahiri Sidereal frames, especially when an integrity receipt is required for verification. It is ideal for astrology software pipelines, Vedic chart construction, or any workflow requiring tamper-evident celestial position data without interpretations or forecasts.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed UTC instant string returns a validation error
- Unsupported data class value (not 'public' or 'synthetic') causes schema rejection
- Missing required fields (dataClass or instantUtc) returns a 400-level error
- Timestamps outside supported range may produce an error or undefined behavior
- Network or payment failure prevents the calculation from completing

## How this service works

Build an astronomy or astrology tool with seven classical-body geocentric longitudes at one UTC instant, Tropical and versioned Lahiri Sidereal frames, conventions and a deterministic receipt. Public or synthetic inputs only. No interpretations, forecasts or predictive certification. Request and result bodies are not stored.

## Output

Returns a versioned JSON object (maha-celestial-calculations/0.1) containing the offer ID, input digest, geocentric longitudes for seven classical bodies in both Tropical and Lahiri Sidereal frames, explicit convention metadata, boundary declarations, and a deterministic receipt digest for integrity verification. No interpretations, forecasts, or predictive content is included.
