Search & retrieval

More-like-this: given a passage id, returns its semantic neighbours.

Widens a result set without a second query. Because the embedding space is multilingual, the neighbours are not limited to the seed passage's language — a German result can surface the English coverage of the same subject.

Arguments

NameTypeDescription
idrequiredstringSeed passage id.
limitintegerNeighbour count.

Returns:Neighbouring passages in the same metadata-only shape.

Example

Prompt: “Find more pages like this one.”

similar calljson
{ "id": "p:8f2c9a", "limit": 10 }

Over HTTP

The same operation is available as GET /similar for anything that does not speak MCP.

/similarbash
curl -H "x-api-key: $UNLOB_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.unlob.com/similar?id=p:8f2c9a&limit=10"
