Performance

  • Not measured
    Fast (p50)

    Median latency 369 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

  • Not measured
    Reliable (uptime)

    1 of 1 attempts returned a tool list in 30 days (100%). The bar is 99%. Need at least 30 samples.

  • Not measured
    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

    Safety hints

    6 tools set neither readOnlyHint nor destructiveHint.

Publisher

  • Pass
    Verified namespace

    Listed in the Official MCP Registry.

  • Not measured

Capabilities

Tools 6

asktian_best_time_for_action

Find the most auspicious time windows in the next N days for a specific action. Use this when the user asks 'when should I do X', 'should I move this meeting', 'is tomorrow a good day to launch', 'when should I have the hard conversation', etc. Returns top 3 best windows and any windows to avoid. This is the most useful tool for real-time decision support inside any AI assistant — it lets you give specific scheduling advice instead of vague reflections.

Discovered
asktian_compatibility

Compute fate compatibility between two people via Chinese metaphysics (八字 pairing, 5-element generation/clash). Returns qualitative label first (e.g. '互补型 Complementary'), then a numeric score (hidden if <60 to avoid making low-compat feel like rejection — this is intentional per the asktian design principles). Useful when user asks about compatibility, fit, or 'will this person and I work'.

Discovered
asktian_daily_reading

Get today's personalized Chinese metaphysics (八字 bazi + 干支 daily energy) reading for a person. Returns their archetype (one of 8 trigrams 八卦), today's energy, favorable colors/direction/hours, headline advice, and any caution. Use this when the user asks how today will be for them, what colors to wear, where to face their desk, or for general daily guidance.

Discovered
asktian_market_read

Get a Chinese-metaphysics signal on a binary prediction-market question (Polymarket/Kalshi style yes/no outcomes). Use when a user — or a trading agent — wants an UNCORRELATED, for-fun read on a market: 'will X happen by date Y'. Returns a lean (yes/no/neutral), a confidence, the 五行 reasoning from the resolution date's energy, and a mandatory disclaimer. This is ENTERTAINMENT and a falsifiable ritual — NOT financial advice. Always present it as a novelty signal, never as a recommendation to place a bet.

Discovered
asktian_name_analysis

Quick energetic profile of a name (姓名学 name-analysis). Useful when the user asks about someone's name, a baby name, a company name, or 'what kind of person is X' when no birthdate is available. Returns a one-line vibe + dominant element guess.

Discovered
asktian_today_energy

Get today's GENERAL energy (no person needed) — the 干支 (stem + branch) and the dominant 5-element character of the day. Useful when the user asks 'what kind of day is it', 'what's the energy today', or when an AI agent wants to add cosmic context to a generic suggestion without needing the user's birthdate.
