}The slim catalogue of every episode — one row each, metadata only. Narrow it with show or person; passing both is an error. Large responses are truncated to the newest rows with a note, so filter rather than paging.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| show | string | Show id. Mutually exclusive with person. |
| asset | string | Optional asset tag ids joined by commas (equities, crypto, vc_pe, other). Matches any selected id within this facet and all supplied facets together. Omit for all episodes, including untagged; pass none for no episodes. |
| focus | string | Optional focus tag ids joined by commas (investing, company_building, technical, macro, policy). Matches any selected id within this facet and all supplied facets together. Omit for all episodes, including untagged; pass none for no episodes. |
| person | string | Exact participant name. Mutually exclusive with show. |
| sector | string | Optional sector tag ids joined by commas (ai_software, semis, robotics, biotech, consumer, finance, blockchain, energy, space_defense). Matches any selected id within this facet and all supplied facets together. Omit for all episodes, including untagged; pass none for no episodes. |

}Read one section of an episode. Long sections page deterministically: when the result says truncated: true, call again with offset set to next_offset and concatenate content_md until next_offset is null. Prefer tldr or digest — a transcript can exceed 100,000 characters and is rarely worth paging in full. lang selects the OUTPUT edition, not a catalogue filter; transcripts exist only in the episode's source language, so requesting a different lang for section=transcript always returns the source with lang_fallback: true.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| lang | string | Output edition. A translated summary is served only when both the TL;DR and the digest translations are complete; otherwise the source edition comes back with lang_fallback: true. |
| slug* | string | Episode slug from a list or search result. |
| offset | integer | Code-point offset into the section. Use the previous next_offset. |
| section | string | meta returns the row with no long markdown at all; tldr is the bullet summary; digest is the structured writeup; transcript is the full text. |
| max_chars | integer | Code points per window. Defaults to 20000 for Latin text and 14000 for Chinese or Japanese text, which cost about one token per character. |

}List episodes newest first, optionally narrowed to one show. Returns metadata only — titles, deks, dates, durations, participant chips and source links — never the digest or transcript. Use bidclub_get_episode for content.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| show | string | Show id from bidclub_list_shows. Omit for the whole library. |
| asset | string | Optional asset tag ids joined by commas (equities, crypto, vc_pe, other). Matches any selected id within this facet and all supplied facets together. Omit for all episodes, including untagged; pass none for no episodes. |
| focus | string | Optional focus tag ids joined by commas (investing, company_building, technical, macro, policy). Matches any selected id within this facet and all supplied facets together. Omit for all episodes, including untagged; pass none for no episodes. |
| limit | integer | Episodes per page. |
| offset | integer | Rows to skip. Page with the returned pagination.next_offset. |
| sector | string | Optional sector tag ids joined by commas (ai_software, semis, robotics, biotech, consumer, finance, blockchain, energy, space_defense). Matches any selected id within this facet and all supplied facets together. Omit for all episodes, including untagged; pass none for no episodes. |
| source_lang | string |
List every show in the BidClub library with its id, display name, source language, hosts, and source links. Start here when you need a show id for the show parameter of the other tools.

}Full-text search across titles, deks, TL;DRs, digests and transcripts, with a substring sweep that handles Chinese queries the tokenizer cannot segment. Returns up to 20 metadata rows, never content. When the response carries partial: true the query only covered the newest searched_recent episodes, so say so rather than reporting an absence.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| q* | string | Query text. English words are stemmed; Chinese matches as a substring. |
| len | string | Episode duration bucket. |
| show | string | Show id from bidclub_list_shows. |
| time | string | Restrict to episodes published within this window. |
| asset | string | Optional asset tag ids joined by commas (equities, crypto, vc_pe, other). Matches any selected id within this facet and all supplied facets together. Omit for all episodes, including untagged; pass none for no episodes. |
| focus | string | Optional focus tag ids joined by commas (investing, company_building, technical, macro, policy). Matches any selected id within this facet and all supplied facets together. Omit for all episodes, including untagged; pass none for no episodes. |
| person | string | Exact participant name, matched against the "person:" chips. |
| Filters by the episode's ORIGINAL language. Chinese digests exist for most English-source episodes, so do NOT set source_lang=ZH just because you want Chinese output — use the lang parameter on bidclub_get_episode instead. |
