What it can do
| Tool | What it says it does |
|---|---|
audio.get | Get the audio file URL for a specific paragraph. Accepts any paragraph reference format (globalId "1:2.0.1", standardReferenceId "2:0.1", or paperSectionParagraphId "2.0.1"). |
bible.book | Get metadata for a single Bible book including chapter and verse counts. Accepts OSIS codes ("Gen"), USFM codes ("GEN"), full names ("Genesis"), and aliases ("genesis", "1-maccabees") — case-insensitive, hyphens/underscores tolerated. |
bible.books | List all 81 books of the World English Bible (eng-web): 39 Old Testament + 15 deuterocanonical + 27 New Testament. Each entry includes OSIS book code, full name, abbreviation, canonical order, canon, and chapter/verse counts. |
bible.chapter | Get every verse in a Bible chapter, ordered by verse number. Accepts OSIS, USFM, full name, or alias for `book_code`. |
bible.search.semantic | Free-form natural-language search across all Bible chunks, ranked by cosine similarity. Each result includes the top-N pre-computed Urantia paragraphs related to that chunk. One query surfaces both Bible matches and the relevant Urantia content. Optional filters: `canon` (`ot`, `deuterocanon`… |
bible.verse | Get a single verse from the World English Bible (eng-web). Accepts OSIS, USFM, full name, or alias for `book_code`. |
bible.verse.urantia_parallels | Returns the top 10 Urantia paragraphs whose embeddings are nearest to the Bible chunk that contains this verse. Pre-computed at seed time with text-embedding-3-large (3072-d) cosine similarity. Each result carries a similarity score (0..1) and rank (1..10). These are semantic neighbors, not a… |
cite.get | A formatted citation of one paragraph of the Urantia Papers in APA, MLA, Chicago, or BibTeX. The ref is "196:2.1", "1:196.2.1", or "196.2.1". |
entities.get | Get detailed information about a specific entity by its slug ID. Returns name, type, aliases, description, related entities, and citation count. |
entities.list | Browse the entity catalog: beings, places, orders, races, religions, and concepts mentioned in the Urantia Papers. Supports filtering by type and searching by name. |
entities.paragraphs | Get all paragraphs that mention a specific entity, ordered by position in the text. Useful for studying everything said about a particular being, place, or concept. |
papers.get | Get a single paper with all its paragraphs. Paper IDs range from 0 (Foreword) to 196. Each paragraph has its reference, section, and plain text, so a whole paper fits in one call. `paper.audio` is one audio file of the whole paper (null when there is none). Optionally include entity mentions. |
papers.list | List all 197 papers of the Urantia Papers with their metadata (id, title, partId, labels), as a flat list. |
papers.sections | Get all sections within a paper, ordered by section number. Useful for understanding paper structure before reading specific sections. |
paragraphs.context | Get a paragraph with surrounding context (N paragraphs before and after within the same paper). Useful for understanding passages in context. |
paragraphs.get | Look up paragraphs by reference. Supports three formats: globalId ("1:2.0.1"), standardReferenceId ("2:0.1"), or paperSectionParagraphId ("2.0.1"). The format is auto-detected. To read several paragraphs, pass them all in `refs` in one call (up to 20); for a passage with its neighbors, use… |
paragraphs.random | Get a random paragraph from the Urantia Papers. Great for daily quotes, exploration, or discovering new passages. |
quotes.verify | Checks whether a quoted passage is in the Urantia Papers. Returns `verdict` (exact, close, not_found), the reference and exact text of the best match, each word that differs, and other places the quote appears. Case and punctuation are ignored. A quote must be at least 4 words and fall within one… |
search.fulltext | Keyword search across all paragraphs of the Urantia Papers. Mode "auto" (default): a reference such as "68:6.3", "103:2", "Paper 68", or a bare number such as "68" (0 to 196) gives those paragraphs; otherwise the exact phrase first, then every word, then (when few) typo fixes and most of the… |
search.semantic | Search the Urantia Papers using semantic similarity (vector embeddings). Returns conceptually related results even without exact keyword matches. A reference such as "99:1.1" gives those paragraphs; a pasted paragraph gives itself first. Each result has `strength` (strong, related, weak) and… |
toc.get | Get the full table of contents of the Urantia Papers. Returns the Foreword and the 4 parts, with all 197 papers and their titles. |
works.list | The works beside the Urantia Papers: the Bible (World English Bible) and 21 texts of the world's religions and traditions, each in the US public domain. `id` is what the other works.* tools take ("bible" or a slug such as "dhammapada"); `unitLabel` is the word for one unit of each work. |
works.read | The units of a reference in one work, in order, at most 200, each with its link: one verse or passage, a short range of up to 50, or a chapter. The prefix is optional ("BG 2.47" and "2.47" are the same); for the Bible, name the book ("John 3:16"). |
works.search | Keyword search across the Bible and the other works, or one work with `work`. A reference such as "John 3:16", "Jn 3:16-18", "Dhp 183", or "BG 2.47" gives those units first. Otherwise the exact phrase first, then every word, then (when few) a typo fix in `meta.didYouMean`. Each result has `match`… |
works.search.semantic | Natural-language search across the Bible and the other works, or one work with `work`. The list holds the 100 nearest chunks (a few verses each); each has `similarity` and `strength` (strong, related, weak), and `meta.total` is the length of that list, and `meta.related` counts the related or… |
works.urantia_parallels | The 10 Urantia paragraphs closest in meaning to one unit of a work (the chunk that holds it). Semantic parallels, not curated ones: they do not claim that two teachings are the same. The reference must name one unit. |
