Search the books Dr. Shiva Kakkar actually owns and has uploaded, using the shivas-book-search MCP server (Gemini file search). Answers from the owned corpus with book-level citations instead of from training memory or the open web. Use when he asks what a book says about something, wants a passage or mechanism located, wants a claim checked against a source he owns, is assembling teaching material and needs the primary text, or asks whether he already owns a book on a topic. Triggers on "what does <book> say about", "search my books", "find in my library", "which of my books covers", "do I have anything on", "pull the passage on", "cite from my library". This skill reads the owned shelf only. It does NOT evaluate books he has not read or decide whether a new book is worth buying: hand that to book-taste-curator.

# Search Books The owned shelf, searchable. This skill answers from books Shiva has actually uploaded, so an answer can be cited and trusted. Anything not in the store is out of scope for this skill. ## Boundary | Question | Skill | |---|---| | What does a book I own say about X? | This skill | | Which of my books covers X? | This skill | | Do I already own something on X? | This skill | | Should I read X, is X worth it? | book-taste-curator | | What should I read about X? | book-taste-curator | | Mine X for prompt vocabulary | book-taste-curator, after this skill retrieves the passages | When a search here returns nothing on a topic, say so plainly and offer the handoff. An empty shelf is a real answer, not a failure. ## Server Tools come from the `shivas-book-search` MCP server, which must already be configured in the user's own MCP settings. This skill never carries credentials, store identifiers, or endpoint URLs. If the tools are absent, say the server is not connected and stop. Do not substitute web search and present the result as if it came from the library. Tools used: `list_stores`, `list_books`, `search_book`, `search_store`, `list_chapters`. ## Load order 1. Read `references/library-map.md` for what is on the shelf and how to route a topic to a store. 2. Read `references/query-protocol.md` before the first tool call. It carries the call sequence and the known failure modes. ## Workflow 1. **Always call `list_stores` first.** Never hardcode a store ident
