About vedicchart
vedicchart is a local stdio bridge for MCP clients that need access to a hosted Vedic astrology service. It forwards requests for chart calculations, calendars, compatibility, doshas, and related tools without implementing astrology logic locally.
Key features
- 01Access 17 hosted astrology tools
- 02Retrieve panchang and birth charts
- 03Check matching and doshas
- 04Query dashas and transits
- 05Get festival and eclipse calendars
Use cases
- 01Retrieve a day's panchang for a place
- 02Generate or inspect a birth chart
- 03Compare two charts for compatibility
- 04Check yearly festivals and eclipses
MCP support
It serves the hosted service's tool list locally over stdio and forwards MCP tool calls to the hosted endpoint, returning results to the client.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| date | string | No | Gregorian date to compute, YYYY-MM-DD, e.g. 2026-07-25. Years 1200-2400. Omit to get today's date at the given place (not the server's date). |
| place | string | No | Place as free text, "City, State, Country" -- e.g. "Jaipur, Rajasthan, India". Preferred input: it is geocoded to coordinates and an IANA timezone server-side, and any city worldwide works. Omit only if you pass latitude + longitude + timezone instead. |
| latitude | number | No | Latitude in decimal degrees, -90 to 90, north positive (Delhi = 28.6139). Use only when `place` is omitted, and then longitude and timezone are required too. |
| timezone | string | No | IANA timezone name, e.g. "Asia/Kolkata" or "America/New_York" (never an offset like "+05:30"). Required when latitude/longitude are used; ignored when `place` is given. |
| longitude | number | No | Longitude in decimal degrees, -180 to 180, east positive (Delhi = 77.2090). Use only when `place` is omitted. |
Details
From the project READMEvedicchart
A local stdio bridge to a hosted Vedic astrology service, with no astrology logic of its own.
The hosted service computes free Vedic astrology over the Model Context Protocol: the daily panchang, janam kundali birth charts, kundli matching, dosha checks (manglik, kaal sarp, sade sati), dasha periods, transits, muhurta timings, festival and eclipse calendars, and several forms of Vedic numerology — 17 tools in all. Results are deterministic, computed with the Swiss Ephemeris on the sidereal zodiac (Lahiri ayanamsa). No account and no API key are needed; the hosted endpoint allows 30 requests per minute per IP.
vedicchart exists for MCP clients that only speak
stdio. It serves tools/list locally — the tool
names, descriptions and input schemas are the hosted
server's own, captured live on 2026-10-27 and served
verbatim — and forwards every tools/call to the
hosted endpoint, returning the result unchanged.
Configuration
KUNDLIT_MCP_URL(optional) — hosted MCP endpoint. Defaults tohttps://kundlit.com/api/mcp.
How a call travels
Each forwarded call runs the streamable-HTTP JSON-RPC sequence against the endpoint:
- an
initializerequest, - a
notifications/initializednotification, - the
tools/callrequest itself.
If the server issues an Mcp-Session-Id header, it
is sent back on the later requests of the same call.
Replies framed as server-sent events are understood
as well as plain JSON replies.
If the hop to the hosted server fails — unreachable,
a non-2xx answer, or an unusable reply — the call
fails locally with a JSON-RPC -32001 error whose
message begins vedicchart error:, rather than
leaving the client hanging. An error the hosted
server itself sends is surfaced with its own message
under the same prefix.
Tools

The authoritative description of each tool — its
exact inputs, defaults and caveats — is the one
served in tools/list, which is the hosted server's
own text.
CLI
Each tool is a subcommand taking one JSON argument string; the forwarded result is printed as JSON:
npx @reneturcios/vedicchart get_panchang '{"place":"Jaipur, Rajasthan, India"}'
npx @reneturcios/vedicchart get_janam_kundali '{"birth_date":"1992-03-14","birth_time":"06:45","place":"Lucknow, India"}'
npx @reneturcios/vedicchart get_eclipses '{"year":2026}'
npx @reneturcios/vedicchart --version
Exit codes: 0 on success, 1 on a runtime error,
2 on a usage error.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
