Get a topic area, its membership and link, and its glossary entries. ID-only requests return all entries in full. Adding detail, limit, or cursor enables pages (25 default, 100 maximum); detail defaults full. total counts the full topic. Use list_categories to discover IDs and get_term for a full entry.
Topic ID from list_categories, for example "ai-and-automation" or "cloud-and-systems".
Entries per page: default 25, maximum 100. May change between pages.
Copy nextCursor from the previous page and keep the same tool, filters, and detail. Omit it on the first request; restart without it after INVALID_CURSOR. The final page has no nextCursor.
"full" returns complete entries (default); "compact" returns summaries with links.

}Explain a concept in context by getting it together with the glossary entries editors linked as related, in their chosen order, with absolute url links. Accepts an ID, title, or alias. Neighbors default to full; compact detail shortens neighbors while keeping the main entry full.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| id* | string | Entry ID, title, or alias, for example "rag", "Vector Database", or "retrieval augmented generation". |
| detail | string | "full" returns complete related entries (default); "compact" returns neighbor summaries. The main entry always stays full. |
