What it does
Bereishes is an MCP server, a connector that lets an AI assistant use it as a tool. It is hosted: an assistant connects to it over the internet, nothing to install.
No capability identified yet from its description.
Facts come from the Official MCP Registry, as declared by the publisher. Capabilities are matched automatically (low confidence). None of this is a test of the tool.

4 tools offered to AI assistants
semantic_search· Searches the library by meaning. Returns ranked passage snippets (the ref and its first ~180 characters) with links. Snippets are short excerpts, not full passages. Optional hebrew_terms rank passages that contain those Hebrew words higher.fetch_text· Returns the full Hebrew and English text of one canonical ref, or of up to 10 refs, with links. A range such as 'Shabbat 21b:5-11' works. Text is cut at about 3000 characters per language for one ref (1500 when several are read) and markedfetch_commentary· Returns the commentary on a verse or passage (Rashi, Ramban, Ibn Ezra, Sforno and others), in each commentator's own words, with links. Can be limited to named commentators.resolve_ref· Turns a natural-language reference ('Rambam Teshuvah 2', 'Hilchot Shabbat ch. 5') into the library's canonical ref, or returns suggested completions.
What "online" means: the server answered an MCP connection at the time of the check. It is not a guarantee of security, quality or continuous uptime. How we test: we open an MCP session and ask for the tool list, as an AI assistant would. We never run a tool and never send a key. Checked every few days. Method
Is this your server? Monitoring Pro: a check every 30 minutes and an email within the hour when it stops answering. Launch offer: $39.99 once, for life.
