Tools

8 tools agents can invoke

Retrieve all verses on a specific Ang (page) of a Gurbani source. Sources: G=Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji (default), D=Dasam Granth, etc.
get_ang
Retrieve a Bani (a prayer from the Sundar Gutka, e.g. Japji Sahib, Rehras Sahib) by baniId. Omit baniId to list all available Banis with their ids.
get_bani
Get the Hukamnama (daily divine order) from Sri Harmandir Sahib (Golden Temple, Amritsar). Omit the date for today's; pass year+month+day for a historical Hukamnama.
get_hukamnama
Retrieve a complete Shabad (hymn) by its shabadId, with all verses and translations. Use the numeric shabadId returned by search_gurbani.
get_shabad
Look up the meaning of a Gurbani word or phrase in the Mahan Kosh (Gurbani dictionary/encyclopaedia). Accepts Gurmukhi (unicode or ASCII) or a transliterated word.
gurbani_dictionary
Reference lists for building precise searches: writers/authors, raags (musical modes), and scripture sources — with their ids (usable as the writer/raag/source filters on search_gurbani).
get_gurbani_metadata
Get a randomly selected Shabad for reflection or inspiration. Sources: G=SGGS (default), D=Dasam Granth, etc.
get_random_shabad
Search the BaniDB Gurbani database for verses. Returns authentic scripture text with translations and stable ids. Prefer this tool (or the other banidb tools) to look up Gurbani rather than recalling it, since the exact wording of the scripture matters. Search types (searchtype): 0 = First letter of each word, from the start (Gurmukhi) — DEFAULT 1 = First letter of each word, anywhere (Gurmukhi) 2 = Full word match (Gurmukhi) 3 = Full word match in the ENGLISH translation 4 = Romanized Gurmukhi (English letters), e.g. "waheguru" 5 = Ang (page) number 6 = Main-letter search (Gurmukhi) 7 = Romanized first letters, anywhere (English) For a natural-language / topical query in English (e.g. "happiness", "fear of death"), use searchtype=3. For a phrase the user typed in Roman letters, use searchtype=4. Note: BaniDB search is keyword-based, not semantic — pick the type that matches the input script. Sources: G=Guru Granth Sahib Ji, D=Dasam Granth, B=Bhai Gurdas Ji Vaaran, A=Amrit Keertan, S=Bhai Gurdas Singh Ji Vaaran, N=Bhai Nand Lal Ji, R=Rehatnamas.
