personality: bool API, i18n across the app

Browse Source 
- Collapse intent tri-state (respond/rewrite/compose) to `personality: bool` on /generate, /speak, and voicebox.speak. Drop respond entirely; keep compose as a standalone button via /profiles/{id}/compose. Remove /rewrite, /respond, and /speak profile endpoints.
- FloatingGenerateBox: Wand2 persona toggle + Dices compose button appear when the selected profile has a personality. ProfileCard badges Wand2 alongside the effects Sparkles.
- MCP bindings: default_intent column → default_personality: bool. Migration drops the legacy column.
- i18n: en / ja / zh-CN / zh-TW translation files filled out and wired through the capture, server, and profile UI.

```ts
voicebox.speak({
  text: "Deploy complete.",
  profile: "Morgan",
  personality: true, // rewrite through the profile's personality LLM
});
```

## [Unreleased]
### Personality — simpler API, better UX
Voice personalities have been collapsed from a three-mode (`compose` / `rewrite` / `respond`) API down to what they actually needed to be: a compose button and a boolean rewrite toggle.
- **Generate box UI.** When a profile has a personality set, two controls appear next to the generate button: a shuffle button that drops a fresh in-character line into the textarea, and a wand toggle that runs your input through the personality LLM before TTS. No more intent dropdown.
- **API surface.** `POST /generate` and `POST /speak` accept `personality: bool` in place of the removed `intent` field. `voicebox.speak` (MCP) takes `personality: bool`. The standalone `/profiles/{id}/rewrite`, `/profiles/{id}/respond`, and `/profiles/{id}/speak` endpoints are gone; `/profiles/{id}/compose` remains for the shuffle button.
- **MCP bindings.** `default_intent` has been replaced with `default_personality: bool`. Existing bindings with a non-null `default_intent` are migrated to `false`; re-enable the rewrite path from **Settings → MCP** if you were relying on it.
- **Respond mode is gone.** Letting the personality LLM *reply* to input text was only useful for agent-as-LLM flows nobody was actually building. Agents that want conversational replies can produce the reply themselves and pipe it into `voicebox.speak`.
## [0.5.0] - 2026-04-22
**The Capture release.** Voicebox stops being just a voice-cloning studio and becomes a full AI voice studio. The loop closes in both directions: your voice goes into your computer through a global hotkey, and any agent's voice comes out of your computer through a voice you own.

### Personality — voice profiles that speak for themselves
Voice profiles now carry an optional **personality** — a free-form description of who this voice is, up to 2000 characters. When set, three new actions appear on the profile, each powered by a bundled Qwen3 LLM running entirely locally:
Voice profiles now carry an optional **personality** — a free-form description of who this voice is, up to 2000 characters. When set, two new actions appear next to the generate button, each powered by a bundled Qwen3 LLM running entirely locally:
- **Compose** — generate fresh utterances in the character's voice. Click again for variety.
- **Rewrite** — restate your text in the character's voice while preserving every idea. High-fidelity mode for turning dictation into in-character speech.
- **Respond** — treat your text as a prompt and produce the character's reply.
- **Compose** — drop a fresh in-character line into the textarea. Click again for variety, edit before speaking.
- **Speak in character** — a toggle that rewrites your input text in the character's voice before TTS, preserving every idea.
Temperatures are tuned per mode (compose hot for variety, rewrite cold for fidelity, respond balanced) and the character framing enforces "speech only" output — no narration, no action tags, no meta-commentary. The same LLM doubles as the refinement model, so there's one local LLM in the app, not two.

### Agents — any MCP-aware agent gets a voice
Voicebox ships a built-in **Model Context Protocol** server at `http://127.0.0.1:17493/mcp` so Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, VS Code MCP extensions — any MCP-aware agent — can call into your local Voicebox install. Four tools ship with dotted names:
- **`voicebox.speak`** — speak text in any voice profile, with optional `intent: compose | rewrite | respond` to run through the profile's personality LLM first
- **`voicebox.speak`** — speak text in any voice profile, with optional `personality: true` to run through the profile's personality LLM first
- **`voicebox.transcribe`** — Whisper transcription of a base64 blob or an absolute local path
- **`voicebox.list_captures`** — recent captures with their transcripts
- **`voicebox.list_profiles`** — available voice profiles (cloned + preset)
