๐Ÿ“Œ Looking for tools to build/run an engine to do STT-LLM-TTS basically. I know how to run all of them separately, and if need be I can build one myself, but I was curious if there is already an open source tool out there that can do this. I know that some UIs like Open WebUI can do this but I find it to be not fluid. I don't know about SillyTavern though, it might already have it. This is just for the funsies so it doesn't have to be perfect. I saw this model https://huggingface.co/LessThanThre...

I saw this model https://huggingface.co/LessThanThreeAI/Qwen3.8-27B-Humanlike-Chat-GGUF and I bet I will have a LOT of fun if I can just turn this into a turn based or fluid voice conversation engine.
