History was a date-grouped list you scrolled. Finding a session from last week meant eyeballing every row. This adds a search field to the existing filter rail, next to the host picker. Search runs on the daemon, not the client. The daemon already holds every persisted agent in memory, so it ranks the whole history and the client never has to warn that it only looked at the pages it had loaded. A searched response is one ranked page with no cursor. The global top K is always contained in the union of each host's own top K, so merging per-host pages and slicing back to the limit is the exact global answer — no k-way merge, and no offset into a ranking that is recomputed per request, which would duplicate and skip rows as history changes underneath it. Past result 200 of a relevance order the answer is a narrower query, so the footer says that instead of offering a "Load more" that cannot deliver. Matching is the app's existing picker matcher, moved to the protocol package so app and daemon share one implementation instead of drifting into two "why didn't this show up?" rule sets. Typo tolerance is opt-in, so the comboboxes keep exact narrowing; the budget is per token, and four-character tokens get transpositions only, because at that length a free substitution turns "main" into "mail", "maid" and "rain". Ranked rows carry the spans they matched on, so results can mark them. The subsequence and typo tiers match characters the eye would never find unaided, and an unexplained row reads as a bug. The ranker computes the spans anyway; sending them keeps the client from deriving a second opinion that could disagree with the ranking it is explaining. Hosts that fail or are offline are now named above the list. Without that, "No sessions match" is a claim the app has no basis for. Gated on server_info.features.agentHistorySearch, checked once against the connected hosts. Reachability is reported by the banner instead, so one offline host in the registry no longer hides the field.
Voice Assistant
A voice-controlled terminal assistant that runs as a single local service.
Quick Start
# Install dependencies
npm install
# Copy environment variables
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env and add your API keys (OpenAI, Deepgram)
# Run development servers
npm run dev
# Open browser to http://localhost:5173
Architecture
- Express Server (port 3000) - Serves API and built UI in production
- Vite Dev Server (port 5173) - Hot-reload React UI in development
- WebSocket (
/ws) - Real-time bidirectional communication - Agent - STT → LLM → TTS pipeline with terminal control
- Daemon - tmux-based terminal management (in-process)
Development
# Run both servers (recommended)
npm run dev
# Or run separately:
npm run dev:server # Express on port 3000
npm run dev:ui # Vite on port 5173
# Type checking
npm run typecheck
# Build for production
npm run build
# Start production server
npm start
Project Status
✅ Completed (Phases 1-2):
- Package setup and configuration
- Express server with WebSocket
- React UI with Vite
- WebSocket client with ping/pong testing
⏳ In Progress (Phase 3):
- Terminal control (tmux integration)
📋 Planned (Phases 4-9):
- LLM integration (OpenAI GPT-4)
- Agent orchestrator
- Speech-to-Text (Deepgram)
- Text-to-Speech (OpenAI)
- Audio streaming
- UI polish
See IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md for complete details.
Environment Variables
OPENAI_API_KEY=your-openai-key-here # GPT-4 and TTS
DEEPGRAM_API_KEY=your-deepgram-key-here # Streaming STT
STT_MODEL=whisper-1 # Optional: override to gpt-4o-transcribe, etc.
STT_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD=-3.0 # Optional: reject low-confidence clips
STT_DEBUG_AUDIO_DIR=.stt-debug # Optional: persist raw dictation audio for debugging
PASEO_HOME=~/.paseo # Runtime state directory (agents/, etc.)
PASEO_LISTEN=127.0.0.1:6767 # Listen address (host:port or /path/to/socket)
PASEO_HOME defaults to ~/.paseo and isolates runtime artifacts like agents/. PASEO_LISTEN controls the daemon listen address. For blue/green testing you can run a parallel server without touching production state:
PASEO_HOME=~/.paseo-blue PASEO_LISTEN=127.0.0.1:7777 npm run dev
Tech Stack
- Server: Express, TypeScript, ws (WebSocket)
- Client: React 18, Vite, TypeScript
- Terminal: tmux (via child_process)
- AI: OpenAI (LLM + TTS), Deepgram (STT)
Testing
Currently manual testing via:
- Start servers:
npm run dev - Open http://localhost:5173
- Test WebSocket connection (green status indicator)
- Click "Send Ping" button to test communication
More testing guidance as features are implemented.
