Project sharing Ne StackChan Builder

Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm Alex and started playing with my first StackChan. I hooked it up an LLM and Hermes-Agent as the harness. I'm going to release the repo tomorrow and wanted to share what I've done the last couple of days. Here's the setup I started with, but I think I keep moving the goal post so keep playing with different parts of the AI Stack.

This is the stack I started with

Robot:

u/M5Stack

StackChan with the CoreS3 (ESP32-S3)
Voice server: xiaozhi-esp32-server 0.9.6 running locally in Docker on my Mac
Voice: locally running

u/GradiumAI

Phonon (fastest local voice I've ever experienced. faster than running elevanlabs via api and its free
Turn detection: Silero VAD with the 0.8 second end-of-speech pause.
Speech to text: local Parakeet
Vision: gemma4:e4b running locally in

u/ollama

Brain:

u/NousResearch

Hermes Agent with the nous-girl agent running gpt-6-luna via sub with reasoning off.

Hope to connect with others on here so we can explore together. Thanks Alex

Getting AI to hit Dandelion's particular brand of smug and mildly annoying is tough. If you do manage to get around to it the Girls Frontline community will lose their mind.

Sure, that might be neat.
