Advanced Transit Timing
get_transit_advanced
Advanced transit timing: triple transit confirmation (Jupiter star+sub AND Sun sign AND Moon nakshatra simultaneously on significator), Rahu-Ketu axis tracking (amplification/termination over significator positions), Moon sub-division tracking (2-3hr windows over 72hrs), and Lagna minute-level prediction (8-12min windows for exact event timing). The highest resolution KP timing available.

}Engine endpoint
This tool delegates to the kp-engine endpoint:
POST /v1/kp/transit/advancedThe 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.
