You can connect an AI assistant to the Urantia Papers. After that, the assistant looks up the text when you ask, and it quotes the paragraph with its reference, such as 2:5.1. It does not answer from memory. You need one thing, the server address:
There is no key, no account, and no sign-in. The connection only reads the text. It cannot save or change anything.

​
Set it up

Choose your assistant. Each company changes its menus from time to time, so a menu name can differ a little from the steps below. The link under each set of steps opens that company’s own instructions.
1

Open the connector settings

In Claude, open Settings, then Connectors.
2

Add a custom connector

Select Add custom connector. For the name, type Urantia Papers. For the address, paste https://api.urantia.dev/mcp. Select Add.
3

Turn it on in a chat

In a chat, select +, then Connectors, and turn on Urantia Papers.
This works on every Claude plan. The Free plan allows one custom connector.Claude’s instructions for custom connectors
We tested the connection with Claude and with Grok. The ChatGPT and Gemini steps come from each company’s instructions. If a step does not match what you see, write to kelson@urantia.dev.

​
What to ask

Name the Urantia Papers in your question, so the assistant knows to look them up.
  • “What do the Urantia Papers say about the Thought Adjuster? Quote the paragraphs and give the references.”
  • “Show me paragraph 2:5.10 of the Urantia Papers with the two paragraphs before and after it.”
  • “Summarize Paper 1 of the Urantia Papers and cite the paragraphs you use.”
  • “Who is Machiventa Melchizedek in the Urantia Papers?”
  • “Which Urantia paragraphs are closest in meaning to Matthew 5:3?”

​
What to expect

  • The assistant asks before it looks something up. The first time, it can ask for permission to use the connector. Allow it.
  • Answers carry references. A reference such as 110:4.2 means Paper 110, section 4, paragraph 2. You can check any quote at that reference.
  • It reads the English text. It can also read the World English Bible and find related paragraphs between the two.
  • It only reads. It cannot keep notes, bookmarks, or anything about you.
If an answer has no references, ask: “Use the Urantia Papers connector and quote the exact text.”
