## Tools (as reported by the server, not verified)

- `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.
- `papers.list`: List all 197 papers of the Urantia Papers with their metadata \(id, title, partId, labels\), as a flat list.
- `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.sections`: Get all sections within a paper, ordered by section number. Useful for understanding paper structure before reading specific sections.
- `paragraphs.random`: Get a random paragraph from the Urantia Papers. Great for daily quotes, exploration, or discovering new passages.
- `paragraphs.get`: Look up a specific paragraph by reference. Supports three formats: globalId \("1:2.0.1"\), standardReferenceId \("2:0.1"\), or paperSectionParagraphId \("2.0.1"\). The format is auto-detected.
- `paragraphs.context`: Get a paragraph with surrounding context \(N paragraphs before and after within the same paper\). Useful for understanding passages in context.
- `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 words.
- `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 \`match\`
- `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.get`: Get detailed information about a specific entity by its slug ID. Returns name, type, aliases, description, related entities, and citation count.
- `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.
- `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.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.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.chapter`: Get every verse in a Bible chapter, ordered by verse number. Accepts OSIS, USFM, full name, or alias for \`book\_code\`.
- `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 curate
- `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\` \(\`ot\`, \`deuterocanon\`, \`nt\`\)
- `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.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 better
- `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.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.
- `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 pa
- `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".
