Mohamed Boudra b625b69302 Render images from Claude Code tool results in chat (#1717)
* feat(providers): render images Claude Code emits instead of base64

Claude returns images as base64 blocks inside tool_result content; they were
dumped into the tool output as a wall of raw base64 text. Materialize them to a
temp file and emit an assistant_message markdown image — the path Codex already
uses — so the client fetches the bytes over the existing WebSocket binary-frame
channel. No protocol or client change; assistant_message is an existing type.

Also strips the base64 out of the failed-tool-call error field, and widens the
Claude history-replay filter so the image survives reload. Collapses the image
writer Codex had duplicated twice into one shared materializeProviderImage.

* fix(providers): match only materialized image paths in the history filter

The history-replay filter recognized a provider image by a leading "![". Review
flagged that user-authored text starting with an image-markdown pointing at the
attachments dir could then replay as assistant output. Tighten the predicate to
the content-hashed <sha256>.<ext> shape the writer actually emits, so only
materialized images pass.

* fix(providers): handle Windows paths in the image-markdown predicate

On Windows the materialized image path uses backslash separators, and
escapeMarkdownImageSource doubles each backslash in the markdown source. The
history-replay predicate matched a single separator, so on a Windows daemon the
image was dropped on reload; the test path assertions failed for the same
reason. Allow one-or-more separators in the predicate, unescape the source in
the test helper, and add a Windows-path case to the predicate test.

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.
