Start TTS Server
Start the VibeVoice TTS server in HTTP mode on port 8002.
Steps
- Run the TTS server in the background:
cd /home/smolen/dev/EnglishConnect/src/services/tts-mcp && source .venv/bin/activate && python server.py --http
Run this command in the background so it doesn't block the conversation.
- Verify it's running:
curl -s http://localhost:8002/health
Should return {"status":"ok"}.
Notes

generate_demos.py and regenerate_example.py scripts
