What it does
ZiWeiDouShu-Master is a Codex skill that reads a ready Zi Wei Dou Shu chart, a form of Chinese astrology. Frameworks in the `frameworks` folder cover career, wealth, relationships, moving and a full-chart reading. The skill first checks the input fields, then selects a framework and shows evidence, counterevidence and confidence. The knowledge base holds palaces, stars, four transformations, formations and a timing engine, and every conclusion is tied to a source. The skill does not compute the chart: it analyses a ready chart and is neither a calculator nor a prediction engine. Birth hour is given as a branch index `0-11`, not a clock hour.
Who it is for. People studying Chinese astrology who get a chart from a separate program or screenshot. Needs Codex with skills.
Good fit when
- A structured chart and a question about income, career or relationships for a particular year.
- Comparing employment and entrepreneurship through the palace layout.
- Turning a chart screenshot into a list of confirmed and doubtful fields.
- A reading in which each conclusion has a source.
Not a fit when
- A ready chart is needed because the skill does not compute it.
- A health, money or family decision would rest only on this reading.
- A precise prediction is expected, which the skill says it does not give.
Example request
Check the fields of this chart, then read career and income for 2026 with evidence, counterevidence and confidence.Limitations
The repository has no license file and states no terms of use. The last commit is 2 September 2026. The skill does not build the chart, so a ready one is needed. A chart screenshot counts as weak evidence and unclear fields go to a clarification list. The result is an interpretation of a tradition, not a verifiable fact, so it should not guide medical, financial or family decisions. The skill targets Codex: the `agents/openai.yaml` file describes it for that agent.
How to disable. Delete the `ziwei-doushu-master` folder from the Codex skills directory.
FAQ
Does the skill compute the chart?
No. It analyses a ready chart. The authors state it is not a standalone calculator or a deterministic predictor.
What input format works best?
A structured chart is the most reliable. A screenshot is weak evidence and unclear fields go to a clarification list.
How is birth time given?
As a branch index from 0 to 11, not an hour from 0 to 23.
Which sources does the reading rely on?
The classical Zi Wei Dou Shu text and the Tian Ji system. Citation mapping is described in `knowledge/source-citation-map.md`.
How is the skill called?
With `$ziwei-doushu-master` in a Codex chat, followed by the chart structure and a question on topic and period.

README in short
The skill validates chart fields before analysis and does not invent stars. Materials are split into frameworks and a knowledge base with a source map.
