body:
|
||||
|
||||
TalkBox has been established as an independent fork of [VoiceBox](https://git.labyricorn.com/Labyricorn/voicebox) to serve as our customized local-first AI voice studio and MCP voice bridge.
|
||||
|
||||
### Summary of Changes
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Codebase Rebranding**:
|
||||
- Replaced all naming across 205 files spanning frontend components (React/TypeScript), desktop harness (Tauri v2 / Rust), backend services (FastAPI/Python), documentation, and build scripts.
|
||||
- Renamed core sidecar binaries to `talkbox-server` and `talkbox-mcp`.
|
||||
- Updated database files to `talkbox.db` and environment variables to the `TALKBOX_*` namespace.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Network and Service Isolation**:
|
||||
- Migrated the default backend and MCP HTTP port from `17493` to `17494` to enable concurrent execution alongside upstream VoiceBox instances without port collisions.
|
||||
- Standardized the MCP tools namespace to `talkbox.speak`, `talkbox.transcribe`, `talkbox.list_captures`, and `talkbox.list_profiles`.
|
||||
- Updated the client identifier header to `X-TalkBox-Client-Id`.
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Labyricorn Publishing & Devlog Integration**:
|
||||
- Restored and configured the repository's `.labyricorn/` publishing records and `devlog_editor.py` validator.
|
||||
- Introduced the `.DCP` (Document, Commit, Push) shorthand command and automated skill workflow for continuous devlog maintenance and release tracking.

Starter template providing the standard .labyricorn/ publishing records, assistant instructions, devlog structure, and repository tooling for publication on Labyricorn.

TalkBox is a local-first AI voice studio combining high-fidelity speech synthesis, zero-shot voice cloning, global dictation with synthetic paste, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) voice I/O.
|
||||
|
||||
### Highlights
|
||||
|
||||
- **Multi-Engine Speech Generation**: Supports 7 TTS engines (Qwen3-TTS, Qwen CustomVoice, LuxTTS, Chatterbox Multilingual, Chatterbox Turbo, HumeAI TADA, Kokoro) covering 23 languages.
|
||||
- **Voice Cloning & Profiles**: Zero-shot voice cloning from reference audio samples, custom effects chains, and personality prompt attachments.
|
||||
- **Global Dictation**: Whisper-backed push-to-talk and toggle dictation anywhere on macOS, Windows, and Linux with focus-aware automatic pasting.
|
||||
- **Agent Voice Output (MCP)**: Streamable HTTP and stdio MCP server (`http://127.0.0.1:17494/mcp`) exposing `talkbox.speak`, `talkbox.transcribe`, `talkbox.list_captures`, and `talkbox.list_profiles` for agent integrations.
|
||||
- **Native & Local Performance**: Built on Tauri v2 (Rust) and React/TypeScript frontend with Python FastAPI backend running locally on Apple Silicon (MLX), NVIDIA (CUDA), AMD (ROCm), DirectML, or CPU.

## [Unreleased]
|
||||
|
||||
### Rebrand & Fork
|
||||
|
||||
- **Forked and rebranded as TalkBox.** Full codebase rebrand across frontend, backend,
|
||||
desktop harness (Tauri v2), and documentation.
|
||||
- **Port isolation.** Default backend/MCP server port moved from 17493 to 17494
|
||||
to prevent conflicts when running alongside upstream VoiceBox.
|
||||
- **MCP tools namespace.** MCP tools namespaced under `talkbox.*` with client header
|
||||
`X-TalkBox-Client-Id`.
|
||||
- **Labyricorn integration & `.DCP` workflow.** Restored `.labyricorn/` publishing
|
||||
records, devlog tooling, and established the `.DCP` (Document, Commit, Push) workflow.
|
||||
|
||||
### Linux
|
||||
|
||||
- **ROCm setup works on Linux AMD systems.** Docker ROCm builds now keep PyTorch
