Masnavi

Full-text search across the Masnavi. Returns beyts that contain the query terms, ranked by relevance. Useful for finding where a theme, word, or phrase appears.

Semantic search: find the beyts closest in MEANING to the query, in ANY language — English, Persian, Spanish, Turkish, Arabic, … . Use this when you have a theme, feeling, or idea rather than exact Persian words (e.g. 'feeling separated from your origin' → M1:1). Each hit carries a cosine-similarity score. status='unavailable' means the vector index is not built yet — fall back to `search`.

Fetch a specific beyt by its citation (e.g. 'M3:1278'), by daftar+beyt number, or by global beyt index. Optionally include surrounding beyts for context.

Given a candidate quote attributed to Rumi's Masnavi, check whether it actually appears. Returns status='exact' (with citation), 'fuzzy' (with similar candidates), or 'not_found'. USE THIS BEFORE QUOTING RUMI to avoid hallucination.

Retrieve a full section (story / بخش) with all its beyts.

Browse the Masnavi's section list. Returns titled sections per daftar with beyt counts and ranges.

Return a randomly-selected beyt, optionally restricted to a daftar.

Fetch ALL beyts between two endpoints, inclusive, grouped by section. Use this — NOT many calls to get_section or lookup — when a user asks for a full story, a long passage, or a sequence of beyts spanning multiple sections. Endpoints are canonical citations like 'M2:2608' and 'M2:2775', or global indices via start_global / end_global. Max range: 500 beyts.

Find sections (stories) by TITLE. Exact words first (phrase, then AND-of-tokens); when NO title contains the words, falls back to MEANING matches in any language (hits carry match='meaning' + a cosine score — verify with get_section before relying on one). Each match includes `first_citation` and `last_citation` — ready-to-use canonical citations (e.g. 'M2:2608'). To read a whole multi-section story, call get_range with the FIRST match's `first_citation` as start and the LAST match's `last_citation` as end. Do NOT construct a citation from `first_beyt_global` — that is a GLOBAL index (1..25635), not a daftar-local beyt number. Example: find_sections('ابلیس معاویه', daftar=2).

Get commentary (Persian + English) for a specific beyt of the Masnavi, attributed to a primary source (e.g. Abdolkarim Soroush's lectures). Returns the beyt text along with structured commentary entries. Each entry has source, author, language, body markdown, and confidence ('ai-draft' / 'reviewed' / 'verbatim'). Use this when a user asks 'what does this beyt mean' or 'what does <scholar> say about M1:1'.

Full-text search across the 34,603 beyts of the ghazals of the Divan-e Shams (Divan-e Kabir) — Rumi's lyric work, distinct from the Masnavi. Returns beyts with divan citations (G{ghazal}:{beyt}, e.g. G1393:1). Use when you know the exact Persian words; use search_divan_meaning for a theme in any language.

Semantic search over the Divan-e Shams ghazals: given a theme, feeling, or idea in ANY language, returns the GHAZALS closest in meaning — each with its best-matching couplet as a preview and a cosine score. Both couplet-level and whole-ghazal vectors are searched, so a ghazal whose overall theme matches is found even when no single couplet does. Fetch a full ghazal with get_ghazal. status='unavailable' means the index is not built — fall back to search_divan.

Fetch ONE complete ghazal of the Divan-e Shams by its canonical number (1..3230) or citation ('G1393' / 'G1393:2'). Returns every beyt plus prev/next ghazal numbers. Famous example: get_ghazal(1393) = «مرده بدم زنده شدم…».
