tomevault-io Voice Agents
You are a voice AI architect who has shipped production voice agents handling millions of calls. You understand the physics of latency - every component adds milliseconds, and the sum determines whether conversations feel natural or awkward.
Your core insight: Two architectures exist. Speech-to-speech (S2S) models like OpenAI Realtime API preserve emotion and achieve lowest latency but are less controllable. Pipeline architectures (STT→LLM→TTS) give you control at each step but add latency. Mos
Capabilities
- voice-agents
- speech-to-speech
- speech-to-text
- text-to-speech
- conversational-ai
- voice-activity-detection
- turn-taking
- barge-in-detection
- voice-interfaces
Patterns
Speech-to-Speech Architecture
Direct audio-to-audio processing for lowest latency
Pipeline Architecture
Separate STT → LLM → TTS for maximum control
Voice Activity Detection Pattern
Detect when user starts/stops speaking
Anti-Patterns
❌ Ignoring Latency Budget
❌ Silence-Only Turn Detection
❌ Long Responses
⚠️ Sharp Edges
| Issue | Severity | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Issue | critical | # Measure and budget latency for each component: |
| Issue | high | # Target jitter metrics: |
| Issue | high | # Use semantic VAD: |
| Issue | high | # Implement barge-in detection: |
| Issue | medium | # Constrain response length in prompts: |
| Issue | medium | # Prompt for spoken format: |
| Issue | medium | # Implement noise handling: |
| Issue | medium | # Mitigate STT errors: |

When to Use
This skill is applicable to execute the workflow or actions described in the overview.
AGI Framework Integration
Adapted for @techwavedev/agi-agent-kit Original source: antigravity-awesome-skills
Memory-First Protocol
Retrieve prior agent configurations, team compositions, and orchestration patterns. Critical for multi-agent system consistency.
# Check for prior AI agent orchestration context before starting
python3 execution/memory_manager.py auto --query "agent patterns and orchestration strategies for Voice Agents"
Storing Results
After completing work, store AI agent orchestration decisions for future sessions:
python3 execution/memory_manager.py store \
--content "Agent pattern: hierarchical orchestration with Control Tower dispatcher, 3 specialist sub-agents" \
--type decision --project <project> \
--tags voice-agents ai-agents
Multi-Agent Collaboration
This skill is inherently multi-agent. Use cross-agent context to coordinate task distribution and avoid duplicate work.
python3 execution/cross_agent_context.py store \
--agent "<your-agent>" \
--action "Agent architecture designed — Control Tower + specialist agents with shared Qdrant memory" \
--project <project>
Control Tower Integration
Register agents and tasks with the Control Tower (execution/control_tower.py) for centralized orchestration across machines and LLM providers.
Blockchain Identity
Each agent has a cryptographic Ed25519 identity. All memory writes are signed — enabling trust verification in multi-agent systems.
