It is for reflection and education, not medical, psychological, or financial advice.\n\n## What it does\n\nWhen an AI assistant connects to this server, it gains a single tool — `analyze_bazi` — that turns a birth time into a readable chart:\n\n- **Four Pillars (八字 / SiZhu)**: the year, month, day, and hour pillars, each a Heavenly Stem (天干) + Earthly Branch (地支).\n- **Day Master (日主)**: the day stem — the reference point for the whole chart.\n- **Dominant Ten Soul (十神 / ShiShen)**: the primary archetype of the chart, mapped to its Chinese and English name.\n\nThe computation is delegated to the open-source [`@decasoul/bazi-calculator`](https://github.com/shenshuge/bazi-calculator) library, so the logic is transparent and verifiable.\n\n## Install\n\n```bash\nnpm install @decasoul/mcp-server\n```\n\n## Run it as an MCP server\n\n```bash\nnpx decasoul-mcp\n```\n\n## Configure a client\n\nAdd it to your MCP client's config. For example, in Claude Desktop (`claude_desktop_config.json`):\n\n```json\n{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"decasoul-bazi\": {\n      \"command\": \"npx\",\n      \"args\": [\"-y\", \"@decasoul/mcp-server\"]\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\n\nFor Cursor or other MCP clients, point them at the same command and the server will advertise its `analyze_bazi` tool automatically.\n\n## Tool reference\n\n### `analyze_bazi`\n\nCompute the Four Pillars and dominant Ten Soul from a birth time.\n\n| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |\n|-----------|------|----------|-------------|\n| `year`   | number | yes | Gregorian birth year, e.g. `1990` |\n| `month`  | number | yes | Birth month `1`–`12` |\n| `day`    | number | yes | Birth day `1`–`31` |\n| `hour`   | number | yes | Birth hour `0`–`23` (`0` = 00:00–00:59) |\n| `gender` | string | no  | `\"male\"` or `\"female\"` |\n\nReturns a text summary with the four pillars, the Day Master, and the dominant Ten Soul in both Chinese and English.\n\n## What are the Ten Souls (十神)?\n\nThe Ten Souls are ten relational archetypes derived from how every other element in a Bazi chart relates to the Day Master. They are the engine behind the \"Eastern MBTI\":\n\n| Key | 中文 | English |\n|-----|------|---------|\n| Bijian | 比肩 | The Standing Beside |\n| Jiecai | 劫财 | Forged by Fire |\n| Shishen | 食神 | Feeding the World |\n| Shangguan | 伤官 | Truth Before Comfort |\n| Zhengcai | 正财 | Building Steadily |\n| Piancai | 偏财 | Seeing Openings |\n| Zhengguan | 正官 | Order as Safety |\n| Qisha | 七杀 | Breaking Ground |\n| Zhengyin | 正印 | Seeing Deeper |\n| Pianyin | 偏印 | Wandering Inward |\n\n## Bazi vs the Chinese zodiac\n\nA common question is whether **Bazi (八字)** is the same as the **Chinese zodiac (生肖)**. It is not:\n\n| Dimension | Chinese Zodiac (生肖) | Bazi (八字) |\n|-----------|----------------------|-------------|\n| Input | Birth year only | Birth year / month / day / hour |\n| Resolution | 12 animal signs | Four Pillars → Ten Souls |\n| Depth | One trait per year | Individual archetype + blind spots |\n| Origin | ~2,000 years, Han dynasty | ~4,000 years, I Ching lineage |\n\nThe zodiac is a single note; Bazi is the full score — which is why this server computes the full Four Pillars rather than just the year sign.\n\n## Why 4,000 years?\n\nThe system descends from the *I Ching* (易经) and the theory of yin-yang and the Five Elements (五行). It took shape in the Han dynasty, was refined by Li Xuzhong (唐代李虚中) and Xu Ziping (宋代徐子平), whose Four Pillars method was later compiled into the classic *Yuan Hai Zi Ping* (渊海子平), and flourished through the Ming and Qing dynasties, where it once served the imperial court and aristocracy for matchmaking and date selection. That lineage is the cultural foundation behind the \"Eastern MBTI.\"\n\n## License\n\nMIT — DecaSoul Research (Shenshuge Information Consulting). See [LICENSE](LICENSE).\n"}
