+# inferon
+
+Voice interface daemon for [Letta Code](https://letta.com) agents. Lives in your system tray; click to talk, click to send — your speech is transcribed, sent to an agent, and the reply is spoken back.
+
+**name**: **infer**ence + in**fer**nal + **infer**on (a particle), with symbolic inference planned for later.
+
+## Pipeline
+
+```
+tray click → pw-record (16kHz mono WAV)
+           → whisper.cpp server (spawned & owned by inferon, :50153)
+           → letta CLI (agent conversation, multi-turn)
+           → MeloTTS (melo_server.py subprocess, British English voice)
+           → pw-play
+```
+
+All backends are subprocesses owned by inferon: they die when it dies (tray quit, SIGINT, SIGTERM — signal handlers included).
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Zig 0.16
+- Qt 6 (qt6-base) + GCC toolchain
+- PipeWire (`pw-record`, `pw-play`)
+- [whisper.cpp](https://github.com/ggleron/whisper.cpp) built with `whisper-server` (defaults expect `~/Projects/whisper.cpp`, large-v3-turbo q5_0)
+- `letta` CLI on PATH, logged in
+- Python 3.11 (via [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/)) for MeloTTS
+
+## Setup
+
+```bash
+./setup.sh          # clones MeloTTS, builds venv, downloads checkpoint
+zig build
+zig-out/bin/inferon
+```
+
+Paths (whisper binary/model, MeloTTS root, agent ID) are constants at the top of `src/whisper.zig`, `src/melo.zig`, `scripts/melo_server.py`, and `src/main.zig`.
+
+## Usage
+
+- **Left-click**: start / stop recording. After you stop, the pipeline runs: transcribe → agent → spoken reply → idle.
+- **Right-click → End conversation / Quit**: menu.
+- Tray dot color = state: grey idle · red recording · orange transcribing · blue thinking · green speaking · magenta backend error.
+
+Temp audio lives in `/tmp/inferon/` and is cleaned up as it's consumed (logs stay).
