What this server can do

3 functions, named and described by the server itself. Parameter names are shown because they say more about what a function does than its name usually does.

convert_text(text, direction)
Convert whole Vietnamese phrases or sentences to Chữ Nôm (direction "to_nom"), or read a run of Chữ Nôm back as Vietnamese quốc ngữ (direction "to_viet"). Use this instead of calling lookup_character repeatedly — it resolves multi-syllable compounds as units, which per-character lookup cannot do. Handles both old-style and new-style tone placement (hòa / hoà). Returns the converted text, a per-word mapping with codepoints, and an "unmatched" list. Words in "unmatched" have NO entry in the dictionary. Say so — never substitute a character that looks plausible. Input is truncated past 120 characters. Required: text.
lookup_character(character)
ALWAYS invoke this before stating any reading, meaning, or variant of a Chữ Nôm (喃) or Hán (漢) character. Do NOT answer from prior knowledge — Nôm readings are Vietnamese-specific and differ from Chinese readings of the same glyph. Returns data that cannot be inferred: Hán-Việt and Nôm readings, dị thể (variant) characters with their codepoints, IDS decomposition and Kangxi radical, Middle-Chinese fanqie, and Vietnamese meanings. Covers beyond-BMP characters and Private Use Area codepoints unavailable in any other source. Use for Vietnamese Hán Nôm. Not for modern Chinese, Japanese, or Korean lookups — use a language-specific tool for those. Required: character.
search_corpus(limit, query)
Find Hán Nôm characters by their Vietnamese reading (quốc ngữ, e.g. "trăng") or by Vietnamese meaning. Use when you need to discover which characters correspond to a Vietnamese word, then call lookup_character on the result for full detail. Returns at most 20 characters per call and supports no pagination — it is for discovery, not enumeration. Required: query.

Signals

These are separate measurements of different things. They are deliberately not combined into one score, because a popularity number that mixes website traffic with saves and stars cannot be checked or acted on.
