Tools
8| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | No | Passages to return. Default 8. |
| parts | array | No | Which part of a verse to search: `verse` is the Sanskrit source text, `translation` the literary translation, `word_by_word` the gloss table, `commentary` Vedaword's own exposition, `bhashya` an ācārya's original commentary. Omit to search all. |
| query | string | Yes | A question, a phrase, a Sanskrit term, or a citation such as "BG 2.47". Any language, and Sanskrit in Devanāgarī or IAST. Quote the string to require the exact wording. |
| works | array | No | Restrict to these works by slug — see list_works. Omit to search all. |
| language | enum | No | Preferred language of the translations returned. Not a filter: works that exist only in Russian are returned in Russian, and each result says which language it is actually in. Default: en.ru | en | es | hi | zh |
| full_text | boolean | No | Return each passage whole instead of an excerpt. Use when you intend to quote; excerpts are for deciding what to quote. |

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
