Urantia Papers

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 via `bible_parallels` (direction=bible_to_ub). One query surfaces both Bible matches and the relevant UB content. Optional filters: `canon` (`ot`, `deuterocanon`, `nt`) and `book_code`. Set `urantia_parallel_limit` to 0 to suppress the UB attachment. Requires OPENAI_API_KEY.

Get a single verse from the World English Bible (eng-web). Accepts OSIS, USFM, full name, or alias for `book_code`.

Returns the top 10 Urantia paragraphs whose embeddings are nearest to the Bible chunk that contains this verse — the reverse of `include_bible_parallels` on the UB side. 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* parallels, not curated. Treat results as starting points for further reading, not as authoritative parallels.

Get detailed information about a specific entity by its slug ID. Returns name, type, aliases, description, related entities, and citation count.

Browse the entity catalog: beings, places, orders, races, religions, and concepts mentioned in the Urantia Book. Supports filtering by type and searching by name.

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.

Get a single paper with all its paragraphs. Paper IDs range from 0 (Foreword) to 196. Optionally include entity mentions.

List all 197 papers in the Urantia Book with their metadata (id, title, partId, labels). Use toc.get for a hierarchical view instead.

Get all sections within a paper, ordered by section number. Useful for understanding paper structure before reading specific sections.

Get a paragraph with surrounding context (N paragraphs before and after within the same paper). Useful for understanding passages in context.

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.

Get a random paragraph from the Urantia Book. Great for daily quotes, exploration, or discovering new passages.

Full-text search across all Urantia Book paragraphs. Supports three modes: "and" (all words must appear, default), "or" (any word), "phrase" (exact phrase). Results ranked by relevance.

Search the Urantia Book using semantic similarity (vector embeddings). Returns conceptually related results even without exact keyword matches. Requires OPENAI_API_KEY.

Get the full table of contents of the Urantia Book. Returns all 4 parts and 197 papers with their titles. This is the best starting point to understand the book structure.
