jarvis-vocal

Uses the authentic J.A.R.V.I.S. voice model from HuggingFace (trained on actual movie lines) via Piper TTS. No audio effects needed — the voice is naturally cinematic and British.

Usage

Generate a WAV file:

{baseDir}/bin/jarvis-tts "Text to speak" ./output.wav

Stream directly to an Android device (if ADB connected):

{baseDir}/bin/jarvis-tts "Text to speak" - | adb push - /sdcard/Download/temp.wav

Installation

Prerequisites

pipx install piper-tts
sudo apt install ffmpeg  # or equivalent

Install Voice Model

# Create voice directory
mkdir -p ~/.local/share/piper/voices/en_GB

# Download models via HuggingFace CLI
cd ~/.local/share/piper/voices/en_GB
hf download jgkawell/jarvis en/en_GB/jarvis/high/jarvis-high.onnx --local-dir .
hf download jgkawell/jarvis en/en_GB/jarvis/high/jarvis-high.onnx.json --local-dir .
# Optional: medium quality model
hf download jgkawell/jarvis en/en_GB/jarvis/medium/jarvis-medium.onnx --local-dir .
hf download jgkawell/jarvis en/en_GB/jarvis/medium/jarvis-medium.onnx.json --local-dir .

Integration

Works with OpenClaw Android nodes via ADB over Tailscale. Use jarvis-speak wrapper for one-command push+play:

jarvis-speak "Systems at your service, Sir."

Or use streaming mode (faster, ephemeral):

jarvis-speak "Message" --stream

Configuration

Edit jarvis-speak script to change defaults.

Troubleshooting

"Model not found" → Download models to ~/.local/share/piper/voices/en_GB/jarvis-*

ADB connection refused → Ensure phone's ADB over WiFi is enabled and paired with laptop (port 5555)

Audio doesn't play → Check Android receives the file at /sdcard/Download/jarvis-current.wav and has a WAV-capable media player
