Quick start

1. Install

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-voice-talk
dsh web   # restart after install

Install from source:

git clone https://github.com/duoduoqian708/dsh-voice-talk.git
cd dsh-voice-talk && npm install && npm run build
dsh plugin --profile web add /path/to/dsh-voice-talk

Requires the dsh web profile: 0.1.0-rc.7+ (both the 0.1.0-rc.x and 0.1.5-rc.x host lines are supported); Chrome / Edge, microphone permission and a network connection are also needed.

2. Configure voice

Speech playback defaults to the system voice, free of charge: voice and rate are both adjustable — pick a voice that suits you and tune the rate, and it sounds great. For a more natural timbre, switch to Qwen (usage-based, ≈¥1 per 10k chars).

Speech recognition needs a cloud engine: get an API Key from Alibaba Cloud Model Studio, then paste it into Qwen's "Settings" under Settings → Plugins → Voice chat; the model and endpoint are built in.

3. Start talking

There is a mic icon next to the input box on the conversation page or workspace; tap it to enter the full-screen call and just start speaking. The red hang-up button or Esc exits; you can mute or collapse the panel mid-call.

Settings

Changes on the settings page are persistent defaults; changes made in the call overlay apply to the current call only.

Highlights

• Follows the system theme: light / dark out of the box.
• Bilingual UI (Chinese / English): follows the platform language setting.
• Keys stay on your machine and are never uploaded: the browser never sees them, and speech requests are proxied by the host.
• Open source under MIT: auditable and self-hostable.

Easter egg

Suppose you would rather not stare at a screen and feel like getting outdoors; suppose you happen to have a proxy port open — then take your phone out for a walk and talk through your development while strolling.
