paseo-bot[bot] 94ab368e4e Give daemon-spawned ACP terminals the agent's identity (#5248)
* fix(acp): give daemon-spawned terminals the agent's launch environment

A terminal the daemon opens for an ACP agent is a sibling of the agent
process, not a child, so it inherits nothing from it. createTerminal built
its environment from the requested terminal env alone, while the transport
spawn a hundred lines down already overlays the session's launchEnv. The
terminal therefore ran without PASEO_AGENT_ID or PASEO_AGENT_CWD, so
`paseo heartbeat create` refused to run and `paseo run` lost the caller,
creating child agents with no parent. When the daemon itself was started
from inside another Paseo agent, the terminal saw that agent's id instead.

Overlay launchEnv beneath the requested terminal env in both the argv and
the single-string shell branch, matching the transport spawn's precedence.

Fixes #5016

* test(acp): take createSession options as an object

The helper had grown a second optional positional parameter, making
callers read createSession(undefined, launchEnv).

Voice Assistant

A voice-controlled terminal assistant that runs as a single local service.

Quick Start

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Copy environment variables
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env and add your API keys (OpenAI, Deepgram)

# Run development servers
npm run dev

# Open browser to http://localhost:5173

Architecture

  • Express Server (port 3000) - Serves API and built UI in production
  • Vite Dev Server (port 5173) - Hot-reload React UI in development
  • WebSocket (/ws) - Real-time bidirectional communication
  • Agent - STT → LLM → TTS pipeline with terminal control
  • Daemon - tmux-based terminal management (in-process)

Development

# Run both servers (recommended)
npm run dev

# Or run separately:
npm run dev:server  # Express on port 3000
npm run dev:ui      # Vite on port 5173

# Type checking
npm run typecheck

# Build for production
npm run build

# Start production server
npm start

Project Status

✅ Completed (Phases 1-2):

  • Package setup and configuration
  • Express server with WebSocket
  • React UI with Vite
  • WebSocket client with ping/pong testing

⏳ In Progress (Phase 3):

  • Terminal control (tmux integration)

📋 Planned (Phases 4-9):

  • LLM integration (OpenAI GPT-4)
  • Agent orchestrator
  • Speech-to-Text (Deepgram)
  • Text-to-Speech (OpenAI)
  • Audio streaming
  • UI polish

See IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md for complete details.

Environment Variables

OPENAI_API_KEY=your-openai-key-here      # GPT-4 and TTS
DEEPGRAM_API_KEY=your-deepgram-key-here  # Streaming STT
STT_MODEL=whisper-1        # Optional: override to gpt-4o-transcribe, etc.
STT_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD=-3.0  # Optional: reject low-confidence clips
STT_DEBUG_AUDIO_DIR=.stt-debug # Optional: persist raw dictation audio for debugging
PASEO_HOME=~/.paseo        # Runtime state directory (agents/, etc.)
PASEO_LISTEN=127.0.0.1:6767  # Listen address (host:port or /path/to/socket)

PASEO_HOME defaults to ~/.paseo and isolates runtime artifacts like agents/. PASEO_LISTEN controls the daemon listen address. For blue/green testing you can run a parallel server without touching production state:

PASEO_HOME=~/.paseo-blue PASEO_LISTEN=127.0.0.1:7777 npm run dev

Tech Stack

  • Server: Express, TypeScript, ws (WebSocket)
  • Client: React 18, Vite, TypeScript
  • Terminal: tmux (via child_process)
  • AI: OpenAI (LLM + TTS), Deepgram (STT)

Testing

Currently manual testing via:

  1. Start servers: npm run dev
  2. Open http://localhost:5173
  3. Test WebSocket connection (green status indicator)
  4. Click "Send Ping" button to test communication

More testing guidance as features are implemented.
