get_book_recommendersread-only | Return every verified person who recommends a given book, each with their quote about it and a link to the original source. This is MRB's signature dataset — use it when a user asks 'who recommends Sapiens?', 'is Zero to One worth reading?', or wants social proof / expert opinions on a specific title. Accepts a title ('Sapiens') or author+title for disambiguation. |
get_listread-only | Return one of MRB's 1,300+ consensus 'best books' lists for a topic (startups, stoicism, finance, sci-fi…). Every book on a list was recommended by at least two independent expert sources and is ranked by how many sources mention it. Use this when a user asks for 'the best X books' and you want a ranking backed by multiple experts rather than one opinion. Accepts a topic name ('startup', 'personal finance') or MRB list slug. |
get_person_recommendationsread-only | Return every book a specific person (entrepreneur, investor, author, celebrity…) has recommended, with their verified quote about each book and a link to the original source (interview, podcast, post). Use this when a user asks 'what books does Naval Ravikant recommend?', 'Tim Ferriss's favorite books', or wants reading habits of a specific public figure. Accepts a name ('Naval Ravikant') or MRB slug ('naval-ravikant'). |
get_series_reading_orderread-only | Return the complete publication-order book list for a book series — the order the author released them, including novellas and companion volumes where cataloged. Use this when a user asks 'what order do I read John Grisham?', 'Harry Potter books in order', or how many books a series has. Accepts a series or author name ('Jack Reacher', 'Brandon Sanderson'). |
get_summaryread-only | Return MRB's one-page summary of a book: the overview plus chapter-by-chapter notes (~435 titles available). Use this when a user asks 'summarize Atomic Habits', 'what is Sapiens about?', or wants the key ideas without reading the book. Set full_text=true only when the user explicitly wants the complete chapter notes — they can be very long. |
search_booksread-only | Search Most Recommended Books' human-curated catalog by book title or author name. Returns ranked matches with author, publication year, how many verified people recommend each book, the top recommenders, a sourced quote, and a buy link. Use this when a user asks about a specific book, an author's books, or wants recommendations matching a title they half-remember. For 'who recommends X?' prefer get_book_recommenders; for 'what does person X recommend?' prefer get_person_recommendations. |
