Overview

A daily horoscope and astrology API that returns zodiac readings as JSON, with sign traits and astrological meanings like element, ruling planet and modality on paid plans. Horoscope works by generating horoscope data based on the zodiac sign or birthdate provided. It returns the horoscope for the day in a structured format.

The tool

Once your client is connected to the VerveKit server, this appears in its tool list as HoroscopeSkill. It is read-only and open-world — it fetches and never mutates anything on your side — so most clients call it without asking you to confirm.

Tool call
{
  "name": "HoroscopeSkill",
  "arguments": {
    "sign": "aries"
  }
}

You do not name the tool yourself; the model picks it. Asking about aries in the terms this skill covers is enough for it to reach for HoroscopeSkill on its own — naming it explicitly also works, and is the way to force the call.

Connecting

One server URL covers every skill in the catalog, including this one. Authorization is OAuth: the client opens a browser once, and there is no key to paste into a config file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vervekit": {
      "url": "https://api.vervekit.com/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Per-client setup — Claude, Cursor, VS Code, ChatGPT — is on the MCP setup page.

Arguments

These are the properties on the tool's inputSchema, so a well-behaved client validates them before the call is made. Premium arguments are accepted on every plan but only take effect on plans that include them.

ArgumentTypeDescription
signRequiredstringThe zodiac sign for which you want to get the horoscope

periodOptionalstringdaily (default), weekly or monthly

What the model gets back

The result carries a structuredContent object matching the tool's declared outputSchema, so a client reads fields without parsing prose. status is "ok" and error is null on success; a null field means the value was not available for that input, not that the call failed.

You're likely to feel a surge of energy, making it an excellent day to tackle challenging projects and assert your leadership. Communication flows well, so don't hesitate to express your ideas clearly and confidently. Be mindful, however, of potential impatience; ensure you're not rushing others or overlooking important details in your eagerness to move forward. A surprise opportunity might arise from an unexpected source, so stay open and adaptable. Financially, a cautious approach is advised, but longterm investments could see positive developments if you've done your due diligence. Listen to your intuition, especially when making significant decisions regarding your career or personal goals. Your courage will be your greatest asset.",

Response fields

Paths are relative to data. Premium fields are absent rather than zeroed on plans that do not include them, so check for presence instead of comparing to 0.

Failure modes

Errors come back as tool errors carrying a sentence the model can act on, not a bare status code. Error handling covers the full list.

StatusWhat it means
400 / 422The arguments did not validate. The message names the offending one.
401The OAuth session is invalid or expired — reconnect the server.
403Blocked by a key restriction or an IP allow-list. Never a bad identity.
404This skill is not part of VerveKit. Check the catalog.
429Out of credits, or a brief rate limit. The message tells them apart.

A call costs 2 credits each time the tool actually runs; a model that reasons about the tool without calling it costs nothing.
