# masnavi.ai — Rumi's Masnavi as an MCP server
The complete **Masnavi-ye Maʿnavi** of Jalāl al-Dīn Rūmī — all **25,635 beyts**
(couplets) in 6 daftars, 972 sections — served as a free, public, read-only
**Model Context Protocol** server. Your agent can search, quote, **verify**,
and explain Rumi from the canonical text instead of inventing him.
- **Site:** https://masnavi.ai (read it in 31 languages)
- **MCP endpoint:** `https://masnavi.ai/mcp` (Streamable HTTP, no auth)
- **REST + OpenAPI:** https://masnavi.ai/api/openapi.json
- **Discovery:** https://masnavi.ai/.well-known/mcp.json · https://masnavi.ai/llms.txt
- **Docs:** https://masnavi.ai/docs
## Connect
```json
{ "mcpServers": { "masnavi": { "type": "http", "url": "https://masnavi.ai/mcp" } } }

## Tools (9)
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| `search` | full-text search across all 25,635 beyts, ranked |
| `lookup` | a beyt by citation (`M1:1` = daftar 1, beyt 1) with neighbours |
| `verify` | is this really a line by Rumi? fuzzy-checks a quotation against the corpus |
| `get_section` | one named section (story) with all its beyts |
| `get_range` | a full multi-section story in one call (≤500 beyts) |
| `find_sections` | find a story by (Persian) title fragment |
| `table_of_contents` | the 972 sections, by daftar |
| `random_beyt` | a random couplet |
| `explain` | per-beyt commentary by named scholars |
Citations use `M{daftar}:{beyt}` (e.g. `M3:1278`). Text sourced from
[Ganjoor](https://ganjoor.net/moulavi/masnavi); the Masnavi is in the
**public domain**.
## Why
Language models routinely misattribute Persian poetry. This server exists so
agents can ground every Rumi quotation in the canonical text — search it,
cite it, and verify it — in any language.
*This repository holds the public metadata for the hosted server at
masnavi.ai; the service itself runs at the endpoint above.*
