voice

Local speech-to-text and read-aloud on the iii bus. Nothing leaves the machine by default: a small streaming recognizer produces live text, while bundled Parakeet or a configured host whisper-cli can produce accurate final text. An OpenAI-compatible endpoint or any speech provider registered with llm-router can replace either half through configuration.

When to Use

• A user attached or named a WAV recording and wants its text: voice::transcribe.
• A surface streams microphone audio and wants live text: voice::dictation::*.
• A reply should be spoken: voice::speak.
