What tools does Wikexa Knowledge expose? (6)

Read from the live server. Click any tool for its input schema.

  • lookupFacts about any named thing — person, company, place, species, event, concept. Returns structured fields (dates, identifiers, relationships) plus a ~200-token summary, drawn from 10.2M entity records. Prefer this over fetching an encyclopedia page: the HTML costs ~15,000 tokens to recover ~500 tokens of fact. Resolves aliases and Wikidata Q-ids, so "Apple", "Apple Inc" and "Q312" all reach the sam
  • articleThe full text of an article, for when lookup()'s summary is not enough — sections as a JSON array, infobox as key/value facts, no HTML or wikitext to parse. Pass `sections` to pull only the parts you need (e.g. ["Early life"]) and `max_chars` to cap the payload; both exist because a long article will otherwise flood your context.
  • defineWhat a word means, in thousands of languages — 8.15M dictionary entries with senses, part of speech, etymology and pronunciation. Covers what a general model is weakest at: historical languages (Old English, Gothic, Ancient Greek, Middle French) and hundreds of regional and indigenous ones. A single spelling often has entries in many languages and you get all of them — `hund` returns Danish, Gothi
  • searchFind the right title when you only have a partial name or a rough description. Returns ranked {title, wikidata_id, description, summary_snippet}; ranking blends text relevance with monthly pageviews and follows redirects, so abbreviations land on the real article — "usa" returns United States, "jfk" returns John F. Kennedy, "apple" returns Apple Inc. rather than a disambiguation page. Searches eve
  • recentWhat changed in the last hours or days — the escape hatch for facts newer than your training cutoff. Reach for this whenever the answer could have moved since you were trained: elections, appointments, acquisitions, releases, deaths, records. Returns titles with timestamps and edit comments; resolve any of them with lookup(). Pass `topic` to filter and `hours` to widen the window up to a week.
  • papersAcademic paper metadata from 57M+ works — title, abstract, authors, citations, DOI and open access URL. Covers every field: CS, medicine, physics, economics, biology, and more. Search by keywords (e.g. "transformer attention"), by topic name (e.g. "machine learning"), or by OpenAlex topic ID. Returns papers sorted by citation count. Source: OpenAlex (CC0 metadata). Use this when the user needs sch

What the code can do

This is a remote server — nothing is installed or run on your machine, so there is no local code to analyze. What it can reach is described above: your requests go to the provider's host.
