ovos-solver-failure-plugin

A chat engine plugin for OpenVoiceOS personas that never answers the question. It always returns a canned line, so it works as the last link of a persona chain when every other handler declines. Registered as ovos-solver-failure-plugin in the opm.agents.chat entry-point group.

Install

pip install ovos-solver-failure-plugin

Usage

In a persona file, list it last:

{"name": "OldSchoolBot", "solvers": ["ovos-solver-rivescript-plugin", "ovos-solver-failure-plugin"]}

Directly:

from ovos_plugin_manager.templates.agents import AgentMessage, MessageRole
from ovos_solver_failure_plugin import FailureChatEngine

engine = FailureChatEngine()
reply = engine.continue_chat([AgentMessage(MessageRole.USER, "hello")], lang="en-US")
print(reply.content)
# 404 brain not found

The plugin ships lines for en-US, da-DK, fr-FR, and sv-SE in locale/<lang>/no_brain.dialog. The lang argument picks the closest shipped language (en-us and en-GB both resolve to en-US). If no shipped language is close enough, the reply is 404.
