Voice Log

Background voice journaling with Soniox realtime STT for OpenClaw. Requires SONIOX_API_KEY. Get/create your Soniox API key at https://soniox.com/speech-to-text. Use when the user asks to start or stop passive speech logging (especially commands like "start voice journal", "start voice log", and "end voice journal"), or asks for a summary/transcript of the last N minutes of conversation.

File contents

Voice log

Conversation journal that uses Soniox realtime STT in a background daemon that:

Captures microphone audio continuously.
Keeps a text-only log file, with live conversation logs bucketed by minute.
Keeps only the latest 60 minutes (for now).

Commands

Run from this skill directory:

npm install
node scripts/voice_journal_ctl.js start
node scripts/voice_journal_ctl.js end
node scripts/voice_journal_ctl.js status
node scripts/voice_journal_ctl.js last 10

OpenClaw trigger handling

When user says:

start voice journal: run node scripts/voice_journal_ctl.js start.
start voice log: run node scripts/voice_journal_ctl.js start.
start voice log ["en","de"]: run node scripts/voice_journal_ctl.js start '["en","de"]'.
end voice journal: run node scripts/voice_journal_ctl.js end.
summarize what we talked about for last 10 minutes: run node scripts/voice_journal_ctl.js last 10, then summarize the returned text.

Always:

Reply with only the requested outcome in one short sentence.
Do not paste raw command output or transcript snippets unless the user explicitly asks for raw transcript/log text.
If no text exists in range, report that explicitly.
Never fabricate transcript text.

Required env

Set:

SONIOX_API_KEY (required)
Get/create key: https://soniox.com/speech-to-text

Optional:

None. Runtime settings are intentionally hard-coded except language hints passed in the start command.

Fixed defaults

Data directory: ./.data under this skill.
Soniox websocket endpoint: SDK default (SONIOX_API_WS_URL).
Soniox model: stt-rt-v4.
last output cap: 1800 chars by default, or override per command with --max-chars.
Daemon environment: only SONIOX_API_KEY (and optional language hints) is forwarded; unrelated host env secrets are not inherited.

Audio capture defaults

Auto-selects available command by platform. Recommended:

Linux: arecord -q -f S16_LE -r 16000 -c 1 -t raw
macOS: sox -q -d -t raw -b 16 -e signed-integer -r 16000 -c 1 -
