Pin a query to Wikimedia
- Over the HTTP API, send
"requested_provider": "wikimedia"with the query and your search key. - In an agent connected over MCP, ask it to search with Wikimedia.
Results come back in the same shape for every provider, as the docs describe. Leave the field out, and Grounder routes each query to the provider most likely to answer it well.
