Alcibiades Athens 1daa76951b feat(tools): forward OpenAI TTS instructions field through text_to_speech
The `text_to_speech` tool schema accepted only `text` and `output_path`,
so style direction (tone, emotion, pacing, whispering) could never reach
the OpenAI backend — even though `gpt-4o-mini-tts` (Hermes's OpenAI
provider default) treats `instructions` as its primary voice-design
control.

This plumbs an optional `instructions` argument through the tool schema,
the handler lambda, and `text_to_speech_tool()` into
`_generate_openai_tts`, where it is forwarded to
`client.audio.speech.create()` only when truthy. Empty/None values still
omit the key entirely, preserving behavior on `tts-1`/`tts-1-hd` and
strict OpenAI-compatible servers.

The same passthrough unblocks self-hosted OpenAI-compatible voice-design
servers (Qwen3-TTS-VoiceDesign on oMLX, etc.) that are already wired in
via `tts.openai.base_url` — the established convention per #9004 and the
TTS config docs — without inventing a new provider backend.

Tests: `tests/tools/test_tts_instructions.py` covers backend passthrough,
tool-level threading, schema declaration, and the empty-string/absent
omission cases. `tests/tools/test_tts_max_text_length.py` fake_openai
signature widened to accept the new kwarg.

Website

This website is built using Docusaurus, a modern static website generator.

Installation

yarn

Local Development

yarn start

This command starts a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.

Build

yarn build

This command generates static content into the build directory and can be served using any static contents hosting service.

Deployment

Using SSH:

USE_SSH=true yarn deploy

Not using SSH:

GIT_USER=<Your GitHub username> yarn deploy

If you are using GitHub pages for hosting, this command is a convenient way to build the website and push to the gh-pages branch.

Diagram Linting

CI runs ascii-guard to lint docs for ASCII box diagrams. Use Mermaid (````mermaid`) or plain lists/tables instead of ASCII boxes to avoid CI failures.
