Treatment Modality Selector (KP)
get_treatment_modality
Answers 'which system of medicine will work?' by reading three cusp sub lords: the 6th CSL (nature of the cure agent), the 11th CSL (what delivers the cure), and the 12th CSL (hospital vs home). Each CSL's planet maps to modalities (Sun = allopathy/hospital, Moon = diet/counselling/homeopathy, Mars = surgery, Mercury = diagnostics-led/physiotherapy/mixed pathies, Jupiter = ayurveda/herbal, Venus = comfort/naturopathy, Saturn = long-term regimen/chronic care, Rahu = experimental/foreign/strong drugs, Ketu = faith healing/alternative medicine) and is scored 11th x3, 6th x2, 12th x1 with star lords at half weight. Extra verdicts: surgical route indicated (Mars on the 6/11 cure axis plus 8th CSL signifying 8), hospital vs home care, and doctor change (10th CSL signifying 6/8/12 at L1/L2). Optionally pass current_treatment for an ALIGNED / PARTIAL / MISALIGNED verdict against the ranking. Natal-only, no dasha walk. Supplementary lens, not treatment advice.

}Birth data
This tool requires birth data on every call. The MCP server is stateless, so calling set_birth_profile first validates the data and returns the reading plan, but it does not store anything. Repeat the same five fields here.
