FreeTTS: local personal BYOK speech
- Add FreeTTS key setup and import support for your own local account.
- Add native MP3 text-to-speech with voice selection, fixed-host credential-safe downloads, bounded responses, audio validation and rate-limit failover.
- Keep the provider's spoken watermark. FreeTTS Free is personal/non-commercial; local use does not waive its terms or permit reselling shared API access.
- The signed catalog adds one logical TTS entry,
neural-tts. Voices are parameters, not thousands of separate models. Premium receives the catalog entry now; Free receives it after the existing 30-day aging rule. No gate changes or early model seeding. - Keep every other provider/model row, Mistral settings, and existing user overrides unchanged.
Install this release to use the FreeTTS adapter. Add your own FreeTTS key locally; no provider key is bundled or published.
The release also includes the fixes already merged on main since v0.16.24, including Gemini schema compatibility, overloaded-model sibling-key fallback, and the Start on system startup toggle.
Linux installer builds are pinned to Ubuntu 24.04 for compatibility with the current packaging tools; AppImage, tar.xz, DEB and RPM remain available.
