| POST | /v1/japan-diet-minutes/meeting-speeches | Reads a bounded page of speech excerpts from one meeting selected by a meeting_ref returned by japan-diet-minutes:search-meetings or japan-diet-minutes:search-speeches. Use when you already hold a meeting_ref and want that meeting's speeches in order. Do NOT use to find meetings or to search speeches by keyword — use japan-diet-minutes:search-meetings or japan-diet-minutes:search-speeches instead. Pass the meeting_ref unchanged; the cursor continues through individual speeches within the meeting, not across meetings, and each excerpt is limited to 500 characters. Returns items (speech rows with speech_id, speaker, speech_excerpt, and speech_url) and summary (returned_count, total_count, has_more, cursor). | |
| POST | /v1/japan-diet-minutes/search-meetings | Searches official National Diet meetings by speech content, meeting name, house, speaker, date range, or session range and returns meeting rows with the official meeting_ref identifier. Use when you need meeting-level results or a meeting_ref to read a meeting's speeches. Do NOT use for individual speech text or for filtering by speaker position, parliamentary group, or special speaker role — use japan-diet-minutes:search-speeches instead. Provide at least one search field; date and session range starts must not exceed their ends. Content words use AND semantics, while meeting-name and speaker words use OR semantics. Returns items (meeting rows with meeting_ref, meeting_url, pdf_url, and matched_speech_count) and summary (returned_count, total_count, has_more, cursor). | |

Do NOT use for meeting-level results — use japan-diet-minutes:search-meetings instead; do NOT use to page through one known meeting — use japan-diet-minutes:meeting-speeches instead. Provide at least one search field; date and session range starts must not exceed their ends. Content words use AND semantics, while meeting-name and speaker words use OR semantics.
