Frank 31266fb7f3 feat(frank-tts): cloned-voice speech endpoint — OpenAI-shaped facade, voice packs by name
Phase 1 of the voice-over goal (Gitea issue #2). One stdlib-only HTTP facade in
front of whichever TTS engine wins the engine decision: POST /v1/audio/speech
with voice=<name> answers audio in THAT voice, where a name is real exactly when
/voices/<name>/reference.wav exists — an unknown name is a 400 listing the
voices that are, never a silent fallback (a wrong-voice endpoint stays wrong for
weeks). voice_id works as the alias the omp harness sends; response_format=mp3
is really mp3 (ffmpeg re-encode); oversized input is refused with 414 instead of
half-narrated; /health reports the backend and the resolved voice list.

Two backends behind the one surface, chosen by TTS_BACKEND: omni-http forwards to
an OpenAI-shaped upstream carrying the voice as base64 reference_audio, and
llama-tts-cli runs a local binary per request with --tts-speaker-file at nice 19
so narration never starves the text endpoints. Both are driven in the seam
through stubs — no GPU, no containers.

Named frank-tts, a first-class fleet model endpoint: port 7772 in the 7770/7771
family, alias naming per the StarCraft law, rootless boot-persistent self-healing
quadlet with a read-only /home/dank/voices mount. Voice-pack law recorded in the
env header: reference.wav PLUS the engine's own speaker artifact (required, so a
voice is reusable in other runtimes), plus manifest.json provenance with offsets
always past the first 10 s of the source file.

Not deployed: the engine decision, the pack builder, deployer/homepage/Prometheus
registration and the omp models.yml runner row are phase 2.

# Quadlet unit: frank-tts (rootless, boot-persistent).
#
# Install path on dankclaw: ~/.config/containers/systemd/frank-tts.container
# Unit name: frank-tts.service (container name: frank-tts)
#
# WHAT IT IS. The fleet's one OpenAI-compatible speech endpoint: consumers
# (omp, OpenWebUI, open-notebook) POST /v1/audio/speech with voice=<name> and
# get audio in that cloned voice. A voice is a directory under
# /home/dank/voices holding reference.wav; the shim refuses any name without
# one (400 + the list that does exist) rather than narrating in a fallback
# voice nobody chose. The engine behind it is a separate decision —
# TTS_BACKEND in scripts/frank-tts.env picks between forwarding to an
# OpenAI-shaped upstream on host :8880 and running a local CLI binary per
# request.
#
# IMAGE. Built locally from dankclaw/voiceservice/Containerfile by
# deploy-remote.sh (build_compose_image), like loki/alloy: python 3.12-alpine
# pinned by digest + ffmpeg, app.py copied in, running as uid 10000.
# Pull=never and the localhost/ prefix are required — this host's quadlet
# path cannot resolve a locally built tag from local storage otherwise.
#
# NETWORK. Bridge (dankclaw_default), NOT host: nothing here needs a shared
# loopback namespace, and the comfyui/loki/authentik units are bridge too.
# Consequences both ways: consumers reach it on the published 7772, and the
# shim reaches the host-side TTS engine through host.containers.internal
# (never the LAN IP — a bridge netns cannot route to the host's own address
# for every bind shape, and the fleet's law is the gateway name). NOTE for
# whoever starts the :8880 engine: host.containers.internal reaches the host
# network namespace, so the engine must bind an address that namespace
# accepts; a 127.0.0.1-only bind is not it (the 2026-09-17 signal-relay hop
# needed the host LAN bind for the same reason).
#
# VOICES. /home/dank/voices is host state, never repo state, and is mounted
# READ-ONLY: this endpoint has no business writing voice packs. Because the
# container runs as uid 10000, the packs must be world-readable (644 files,
# 755 directories), which is how the pack builder writes them.
#
# NO GPU. The shim is a façade: audio conversion via ffmpeg on the CPU and,
# for the CLI backend, whatever CPU threads LLAMA_TTS_THREADS allows, at nice
# 19. No /dev/kfd, no /dev/dri, no keep-groups — unlike comfyui, whose unit
# carries them deliberately.
