2026-09-26	Use the system kokoro-onnx package, drop the venv	Danilo M.	1	-7/+3
	kokoro-onnx is now packaged (python3-kokoro-onnx, without espeakng-loader) and finds the system espeak-ng with its default config, so the explicit EspeakConfig and the .venv setup go away. Tested live: two Italian questions answered and spoken correctly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-09-25	Add push-to-talk voice assistant loop	Danilo M.	1	-0/+281
	The microphone's mute button is the push-to-talk: the ALSA Mic Capture Switch starts and stops a recording. whisper-server (large-v3-turbo, Vulkan on the Arc) transcribes it, the model already resident in llama-server answers, and Kokoro speaks the reply sentence by sentence. Only Italian and English are spoken, so detection is restricted to those two; the voice follows the language of the reply, not of the question. Presses are ignored while presentation mode is on, so calls keep the mic. AGENTS.md records the backend, model and voice comparisons behind these choices. Licensed GPLv2 only.
