listenclaw

ListenClaw Voice Gateway

This skill activates when a message starts with

[ListenClaw]

The message was sent by the ListenClaw voice gateway. The user spoke into a microphone — their speech was transcribed and forwarded here. Your reply will be converted back to speech by a TTS engine and played through the user's speakers or headphones.
