Wyoming speech-to-text and text-to-speech for a Wyoming server you run (stt/tts provider `wyoming`), plus a wyoming_voice_status tool that lists the server's models and voices.

## Good to know before installing

Audio and text to speak go to the WYOMING_* host:port you set over cleartext, unauthenticated TCP (public addresses accepted). Once selected, the providers send speech in every session, including cron and webhooks. Non-WAV audio is converted with your local ffmpeg. wyoming_voice_status asks for approval on each call and refuses under cron, yolo, approvals off, -q and unattended platforms; answering "always" leaves a command_allowlist line in config.yaml. It calls internal Hermes approval, config and write-guard helpers, so a Hermes update can disable the status tool or speech file writes (both fail closed).

From the plugin's catalog listing.

## How to install

1. Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs, then asks whether to turn it on.

```bash
hermes plugins install wyoming-voice-bridge
```

2. Said no? Turn it on later:

```bash
hermes plugins enable wyoming-voice-bridge
```

3. Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.

Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see the official page. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide: https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/plugins
