OVOS Wikipedia plugin

ovos-wikipedia-plugin

Wikipedia integration for OpenVoiceOS. Provides a retrieval engine for RAG pipelines and an agent toolbox for tool-using agents, both as standard OPM plugins.

Installation

pip install ovos-wikipedia-plugin

OPM Entry Points

Entry point	Class	Use case
opm.agents.retrieval — ovos-wikipedia-plugin	WikipediaRetrievalEngine	Retrieval — returns ranked (passage, score) tuples
opm.agents.toolbox — ovos-wikipedia-tool	WikipediaToolbox	Agent tool use — exposes search_wikipedia

---

Retrieval Engine

WikipediaRetrievalEngine implements the RetrievalEngine OPM interface. It searches Wikipedia, fetches article summaries in parallel, scores them for relevance, and optionally applies extractive QA and reranking sub-plugins.

from ovos_wikipedia import WikipediaRetrievalEngine

engine = WikipediaRetrievalEngine()

# Returns List[WikipediaResult] sorted by relevance
for result in engine.search("Ada Lovelace", lang="en"):
    print(result.title, result.conf)
    print(result.summary)
    if result.image:
        print(result.image)

# RAG interface: List[Tuple[str, float]]  (passage, score)
passages = engine.query("who was Ada Lovelace", lang="en", k=3)

Optional sub-plugins

Config key	OPM type	Effect
extractive_qa	opm.agents.extractive_qa	Extract the best passage from each article summary
reranker	opm.agents.reranker	Re-score results with a cross-encoder
keyword_extractor	opm.plugin.keywords	Rewrite the query when the initial search returns nothing

engine = WikipediaRetrievalEngine(config={
    "extractive_qa": "ovos-bm25-solver",
    "reranker": "ovos-bm25-reranker",
    "keyword_extractor": "ovos-rake-keywords",
})

Agent Toolbox

WikipediaToolbox exposes a single search_wikipedia tool that any OPM-compatible agent loop ( e.g. ovos-agentic-loop) can discover and call.

Loading via entry point (recommended)

Any agent loop that supports opm.agents.toolbox entry points will auto-discover this toolbox by name:

{
  "name": "ResearchAgent",
  "solvers": [
    "ovos-react-loop"
  ],
  "ovos-react-loop": {
    "brain": "ovos-chat-openai-plugin",
    "ovos-chat-openai-plugin": {
      "api_url": "http://localhost:11434/v1/chat/completions"
    },
    "toolboxes": [
      "ovos-wikipedia-tool"
    ]
  }
}

Direct usage

from ovos_wikipedia import WikipediaToolbox, SearchWikipediaArgs

tb = WikipediaToolbox()

# Discover the tool (used internally by agent loops)
tools = tb.discover_tools()
# [AgentTool(name="search_wikipedia", description="Search Wikipedia for information about a topic...")]

# Call directly
output = tb.search_wikipedia(SearchWikipediaArgs(query="Ada Lovelace", lang="en"))
for title, summary in output.results:
    print(title)
    print(summary)
