Andrew Dutta Rule of Origin

check_rule_of_origin

Andrew Dutta's Rule of Origin: a correctly-rectified birth chart will have the Lagna's star/sub lord connected to the 9th cusp's star/sub lord. Returns verdict DIRECT (same planet match — score 2, HIGH confidence in birth time), INDIRECT (third-planet bridge — score 1, MODERATE), or NONE (no connection — score 0, LOW; birth time likely needs rectification). Use as a fast pre-flight check on any birth chart before deeper readings.

Engine endpoint

This tool delegates to the kp-engine endpoint:

http

POST /v1/kp/rule-of-origin

The engine is a private internal service. All public access flows through the MCP server, which handles auth, rate limiting, and response compaction.

Birth data

This tool requires birth data. If you have already called set_birth_profile in the same conversation, the MCP server injects those fields automatically and you can omit them from the call.
