When speech is detected, Reachy's antennas wiggle.\n\n**3. STT (Speech-to-Text)**: The speech audio is sent to a cloud STT provider (OpenAI Whisper or Groq). The response includes text and a confidence score. If confidence is below `conf_threshold` or volume is below `vol_threshold`, the utterance is discarded.\n\n**4. LLM (Language Model)**: The text goes to the selected LLM with the system prompt, conversation history, and available tools. The LLM may call tools (play emotions, take snapshots, etc.) before or alongside its text response.\n\n**5. TTS (Text-to-Speech)**: The LLM's text response is sent to a TTS provider. Audio is routed to either the robot speaker (16kHz via SDK) or browser speaker (base64 WAV via WebSocket). A TTS lock ensures only one voice plays at a time.\n\nAll providers are accessed via **LiteLLM** for unified API compatibility. Configure providers and models in Settings.",

LiteLLM translates your request into the provider's native API format automatically.\n\n**Provider discovery**: Available models are discovered by making live API calls to each configured provider (cached for 10 minutes).

When it hears background noise or speech not directed at it, it calls `ignore` instead of responding. This is called ~95% of the time in a typical environment. The ignore tool plays no emotion and produces no speech.\n\n**Mute behavior**: When Reachy is speaking (TTS active), the listener is temporarily muted to prevent Reachy from hearing and responding to its own voice.",
