TypeScript API Reference

Create Voice Assistant

import { createVoiceAssistant } from 'clodds/voice';

const voice = createVoiceAssistant({
  // Wake word
  wakeWord: 'hey clodds',
  wakeWordSensitivity: 0.5,  // 0-1

  // Speech-to-text
  stt: {
    provider: 'whisper',  // 'whisper' | 'vosk' | 'google'
    model: 'base',        // 'tiny' | 'base' | 'small' | 'medium' | 'large'
    language: 'en',
  },

  // Text-to-speech
  tts: {
    provider: 'elevenlabs',  // 'elevenlabs' | 'say' | 'espeak'
    voice: 'rachel',
    speed: 1.0,
  },

  // Timeouts
  silenceTimeoutMs: 3000,
  maxRecordingMs: 30000,
});

Start/Stop Listening

// Start listening for wake word
await voice.start();

// Check if listening
const isListening = voice.isListening();

// Stop listening
await voice.stop();

Event Handlers

// Wake word detected
voice.on('wake', () => {
  console.log('Wake word detected!');
});

// Speech recognized
voice.on('speech', (text: string) => {
  console.log(`User said: ${text}`);
});

// Transcription complete
voice.on('transcript', (result) => {
  console.log(`Final: ${result.text}`);
  console.log(`Confidence: ${result.confidence}`);
  console.log(`Duration: ${result.durationMs}ms`);
});

// Error handling
voice.on('error', (error) => {
  console.error('Voice error:', error);
});

// Silence detected
voice.on('silence', () => {
  console.log('User stopped speaking');
});

Speak (TTS)

// Speak text
await voice.speak('Your order has been placed');

// Speak with options
await voice.speak('Market is up 5%', {
  voice: 'josh',
  speed: 1.2,
  pitch: 1.0,
});

// Cancel speaking
voice.cancelSpeech();

Manual Transcription

// Transcribe audio buffer
const result = await voice.transcribe(audioBuffer, {
  language: 'en',
  prompt: 'Trading commands',  // Context hint
});

console.log(`Text: ${result.text}`);
console.log(`Language: ${result.language}`);

Voice Activity Detection

// Check if user is speaking
const vad = voice.getVAD();

vad.on('speechStart', () => {
  console.log('User started speaking');
});

vad.on('speechEnd', (audio) => {
  console.log('User stopped speaking');
  // audio contains the recorded speech
});

Voice Commands Examples

Once voice is active, speak naturally:

"Hey Clodds, what's my portfolio value?"
"Hey Clodds, buy 100 dollars of Trump YES"
"Hey Clodds, what are the top arbitrage opportunities?"
"Hey Clodds, set a price alert for Bitcoin at 100k"

Best Practices

1. Quiet environment — Background noise affects accuracy
2. Clear speech — Speak clearly for best recognition
3. Short commands — Keep voice commands concise
4. Confirmation — Enable confirmations for trades
5. Fallback — Text input always available
