## Briefing Preference
- Johan prefers X/Twitter as primary news source for briefings over legacy media
- Speed matters — X breaks news hours before traditional outlets
- Lean into high-engagement posts, real-time threads, not CNN/Reuters rewrites

## OpenClaw Source Patches (reapply after updates)
1. **Scope preservation with dangerouslyDisableDeviceAuth**
   - File: `dist/gateway-cli-DbznSfRg.js`
   - Change: `if (scopes.length > 0)` → `if (scopes.length > 0 && !disableControlUiDeviceAuth)`
   - Why: Without this, `dangerouslyDisableDeviceAuth` nullifies device → clears scopes → operator.read/write denied

2. **Index deleted session transcripts in memory search**
   - File: `dist/sqlite-C54NeA1C.js`
   - Change: `.filter((name) => name.endsWith(".jsonl"))` → `.filter((name) => name.endsWith(".jsonl") || name.includes(".jsonl.deleted."))`
   - Why: Daily session reset marks old transcripts as `.deleted`, making them invisible to memory search

## TTS → Tablet Pipeline (idea)
- Generate high-quality TTS (Fish Audio S1 / ElevenLabs) → mp3
- Serve from forge (dashboard server or simple http)
- Play via `media_player.play_media` on Fully Kiosk tablets
- Tablets: `media_player.lenovo_tab_m8_*` (many), `media_player.casita_tbl`, etc.
- **Office tablet only for testing** (people sleeping!)
- Could become James's "voice" — intercom-style announcements with a premium voice
- Need to identify which media_player entity maps to the office tablet

## Smart Home Voice Vision
- Goal: push smart home to next level with contextual voice announcements
- Pipeline proven: Edge TTS → mp3 → media_player on Fully tablets ✅
- Use cases:
  - "The UPS driver is approaching the front door" (before doorbell)
  - "Misha is arriving" (car in driveway)
  - "The dryer upstairs finished" (Miele integration)
  - Russian announcements for MiL/FiL (ru-RU voices)
  - Delivery alerts tied to tracker
- Russian voices for in-laws — house speaks their language
- Need Tanya's buy-in before expanding beyond office tablet
- Fish Audio S1 ($5/mo) for premium voice quality when ready

## Wake Permission
- Johan allows James to wake him from **8:00 AM ET** onwards
- Only for **genuinely important** events (Kaseya critical, urgent emails, etc.)
- No FYI-level noise — real alerts only

## Fish Audio S1 — LIVE ✅
- API key: stored in memory (need to add to Vaultwarden when session refreshed)
- Voice: **Adrian** (reference_id: `bf322df2096a46f18c579d0baa36f41d`)
- Model: `s1`
- Pricing: $5/M UTF-8 bytes (pay-as-you-go, no subscription needed)
- API: `POST https://api.fish.audio/v1/tts` with Bearer auth
- Successfully generated and played on office tablet (media_player.lenovo_tab_m8_7)
- Johan picked Adrian over Ethan, Andrew (Edge), Guy (Edge), Brian (Edge), Christopher (Edge)
- Pipeline: Fish API → mp3 → python http server on :8199 → media_player.play_media
- TODO: Make persistent TTS service (not ad-hoc python server), store key in Vaultwarden
