+# STT WebSocket Service v1.0.0
+
+Standalone WebSocket-only Speech-to-Text service for VoiceCal integration.
+
+## Features
+
+- ✅ WebSocket-only STT interface (`/ws/stt`)
+- ✅ ZeroGPU Whisper integration
+- ✅ FastAPI-based architecture
+- ✅ No Gradio dependencies
+- ✅ No MCP dependencies
+- ✅ Standalone deployment ready
+- ✅ Real-time audio transcription
+- ✅ Base64 audio transmission
+- ✅ Multiple Whisper model sizes
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Using the WebSocket Server
+
+```bash
+# Install dependencies
+pip install -r requirements-websocket.txt
+
+# Run standalone WebSocket server
+python3 websocket_stt_server.py
+```
+
+### Docker Deployment
+
+```bash
+# Build WebSocket-only image
+docker build -f Dockerfile-websocket -t stt-websocket-service .
+
+# Run container
+docker run -p 7860:7860 stt-websocket-service
+```
+
+## API Endpoints
+
+### WebSocket: `/ws/stt`
+
+**Connection Confirmation:**
+```json
+{
+  "type": "stt_connection_confirmed",
+  "client_id": "uuid",
+  "service": "STT WebSocket Service",
+  "version": "1.0.0",
+  "model": "whisper-base",
+  "device": "cuda",
+  "message": "STT WebSocket connected and ready"
+}
+```
+
+**Send Audio for Transcription:**
+```json
+{
+  "type": "stt_audio_chunk",
+  "audio_data": "base64_encoded_webm_audio",
+  "language": "auto",
+  "model_size": "base"
+}
+```
+
+**Transcription Result:**
+```json
+{
+  "type": "stt_transcription_complete",
+  "client_id": "uuid",
+  "transcription": "Hello world",
+  "timing": {
+    "processing_time": 1.23,
+    "model_size": "base",
+    "device": "cuda"
+  },
+  "status": "success"
+}
+```
+
+### HTTP: `/health`
+
+```json
+{
+  "service": "STT WebSocket Service",
+  "version": "1.0.0",
+  "status": "healthy",
+  "model_loaded": true,
+  "active_connections": 2,
+  "device": "cuda"
+}
+```
+
+## Port Configuration
+
+- **Default Port**: `7860`
+- **WebSocket Endpoint**: `ws://localhost:7860/ws/stt`
+- **Health Check**: `http://localhost:7860/health`
+
+## Architecture
+
+This service eliminates all unnecessary dependencies:
+- **Removed**: Gradio web interface
+- **Removed**: MCP protocol support  
+- **Removed**: Complex routing
+- **Added**: Direct FastAPI WebSocket endpoints
+- **Added**: Simplified audio processing
+- **Added**: ZeroGPU optimized transcription
+
+## Integration
+
+Connect from VoiceCal WebRTC interface:
+
+```javascript
+const ws = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:7860/ws/stt');
+
+// Send audio data
+ws.send(JSON.stringify({
+  type: "stt_audio_chunk",
+  audio_data: base64AudioData,
+  language: "auto",
+  model_size: "base"
+}));
+```
