Each result carries a similarity score (0..1) and rank (1..10). These are semantic neighbors, not a curat
• cite.get ~149 tokens

• papers.get ~257 tokens
  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.

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 ~537 tokens
  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`
• toc.get ~149 tokens
  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.search.semantic ~364 tokens
  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.urantia_parallels ~189 tokens
  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.
