ovos-persona (LLM/solver) agent protocol plugin for HiveMind-core

hivemind-persona-agent-plugin

An ovos-persona agent protocol for HiveMind-core: the hub answers natural-language queries from an LLM/solver persona instead of a full OVOS skills stack.

Unlike the default hivemind-ovos-agent-plugin, this agent needs no OVOS bus and no running skills — it answers queries directly from the configured persona, streaming the model output sentence by sentence so that a satellite can start speaking before generation finishes.

Install

pip install hivemind-persona-agent-plugin

Or from source:

git clone https://github.com/JarbasHiveMind/hivemind-persona-agent-plugin
cd hivemind-persona-agent-plugin
pip install -e .

Quickstart

1. Create a persona file

ovos-persona personas are JSON files. A minimal LLM-backed persona:

{
  "name": "MyAssistant",
  "solvers": [
    {
      "module": "ovos-solver-openai-plugin",
      "ovos-solver-openai-plugin": {
        "api_url": "http://localhost:8000/v1",
        "model": "local-model"
      }
    }
  ]
}

Save it to ~/.config/ovos_persona/persona.json (or any path — you will reference it in the config below).

2. Configure hivemind-core

Edit ~/.config/hivemind-core/server.json:

{
  "agent_protocol": {
    "module": "hivemind-persona-agent-plugin",
    "hivemind-persona-agent-plugin": {
      "persona": "~/.config/ovos_persona/persona.json"
    }
  }
}

The persona value can be either:

• a path to a persona JSON file (string, ~ is expanded), or
• an inline persona config dict.

3. Start hivemind-core

hivemind-core listen

Satellites connecting to this hub receive answers streamed from the persona.

Configuration

All keys live under "hivemind-persona-agent-plugin" in server.json.

Key	Type	Required	Description
persona	string or dict	yes	Path to a persona JSON file, or an inline persona config.

How queries are answered

hivemind-core's QUERY handler calls natural_language_query(utterance, lang) on the active agent. This plugin implements that method by calling Persona.stream(messages, lang=lang), yielding each output chunk as it is produced. The final None sentinel signals end-of-query to hivemind-core, which sends a hive.query.complete control message back to the satellite.

See docs/query_flow.md for a detailed trace.
