The user chose Microsoft Edge TTS, voice ko-KR-HyunsuMultilingualNeural at rate
+45% (~1.45x), as the natural Korean voice. Wire it into the bridge and make it
the default engine.
- bridge/server.py: _edge_synthesize() calls edge-tts and transcodes the MP3 to
PCM16 mono WAV with the system ffmpeg (temp file for a correct header);
TTS_ENGINE default -> edge; EDGE_TTS_VOICE / EDGE_TTS_RATE env-driven
- requirements-bridge.txt: add edge-tts (lightweight; httpx)
- compose/.env.example/README: TTS_ENGINE=edge + EDGE_TTS_* knobs; note the
online/privacy trade-off (reply text is sent to Microsoft, needs internet)
- drop the now-unused MeloTTS build layer (Dockerfile) and melo-worker
(supervisord) — edge synthesises in-process, no model/worker baked, slimmer
and faster image; settings UI engine list -> edge/piper, restart only bridge
Verified on host: edge-tts -> ffmpeg yields a valid 16-bit mono 24kHz WAV;
envsubst renders tts_engine=edge; docker build --check + 26 tests pass.

MeloTTS's single Korean speaker sounded non-native ("foreign accent"). Swap it
for Coqui XTTS-v2 with the built-in female studio speaker "Ana Florence"
(language ko), the natural voice used in earlier local runs.
- bridge/xtts_worker.py: new warm HTTP worker (own /opt/xtts venv), same
/synth + /health contract and PCM16 output as the old melo worker
- docker/setup-xtts.sh: builds the venv with cu128 torch (Blackwell) + Coqui
TTS and bakes the XTTS-v2 model offline. Pins transformers>=4.57,<5 (5.x
removed isin_mps_friendly, breaking XTTS) and installs the [codec] extra
(torch>=2.9 needs torchcodec) — both verified by a real host synth
- Dockerfile: replace the melo build layer with the xtts layer
- supervisord.conf: melo-worker -> xtts-worker, env passthrough for
XTTS_DEVICE/SPEAKER/LANGUAGE (always set via compose defaults)
- bridge/server.py: default TTS_ENGINE=xtts, route to the xtts worker, generic
worker-synth helper, neural-only fallback flag (XTTS_FALLBACK_PIPER)
- settings UI: engine dropdown xtts/piper, drop the dead melo_speed field, fix
the supervisorctl restart target to xtts-worker
- compose/.env.example/README: XTTS_* vars, speaker/language knobs, remove melo
- remove bridge/melo_worker.py and docker/setup-melo.sh
- tests: xtts treated as multilingual (not English-only)
Verified on host: coqui-tts loads XTTS-v2 and synthesises Korean as
"Ana Florence" to a 16-bit mono 24kHz WAV.

- Chrome: --disable-blink-features=AutomationControlled (+ ko-KR) so Google
shows results, not the /sorry/ automation block.
- Settings persist to /data/jarvis-settings.json (survives recreate; entrypoint
re-merges it) AND the runtime config; apply restarts via a DETACHED process so
the HTTP response isn't dropped when the bridge restarts.
- Bridge reads tts_engine from the settings config so the TTS-engine choice
actually applies.
Adds /settings (served by the bridge) to change the LLM model (from installed
Ollama models), Whisper model, TTS engine + MeloTTS speed, output language,
agentic max-turns, thinking mode, and free-form LLM instructions — live, with a
'apply' that restarts the bridge + TTS worker. Settings persist to the runtime
config JSON; engine reads output_language + llm_instructions and the TTS worker
reads melo_speed from it. Bridge port publishable for access.
