Search for books on Aladin.

Search for books on Aladin. This plugin allows users to search for books based on their preferences. If the user asks a question in English, the plugin will translate the book information, including title, link, author, pubDate, and description, into English. The plugin uses a knowledge base to find up to 5 appropriate books and searches for them via queries. It asks the user for preferences at least once, so it doesn't only recommend books based on genre. If the user asks an inappropriate question or if the plugin considers the information to be insufficient, it will ask for more details. Only verified books are recommended.
