The Mac Mini hasn't run mana-llm/stt/tts/image-gen for a while — those
services live on the Windows GPU server now. The Mac-targeted
installers, plists, and platform-checking setup scripts have been
sitting in the repo as cargo-cult, suggesting Mac Mini deployment is
still a real option. It isn't.
Removed (Mac-Mini deployment infrastructure):
services/mana-stt/
- com.mana.mana-stt.plist (LaunchAgent)
- com.mana.vllm-voxtral.plist (LaunchAgent for the abandoned local Voxtral experiment)
- install-service.sh (single-service launchd installer)
- install-services.sh (mana-stt + vllm-voxtral installer)
- setup.sh (Mac arm64 installer)
- scripts/setup-vllm.sh (vLLM-Voxtral setup)
- scripts/start-vllm-voxtral.sh
services/mana-tts/
- com.mana.mana-tts.plist
- install-service.sh
- setup.sh (Mac arm64 installer)
scripts/mac-mini/
- setup-image-gen.sh (Mac flux2.c launchd installer)
- setup-stt.sh
- setup-tts.sh
- launchd/com.mana.image-gen.plist
- launchd/com.mana.mana-stt.plist
- launchd/com.mana.mana-tts.plist
setup-tts-bot.sh stays — it's the Matrix TTS bot installer (Synapse
side), not the mana-tts service.
Updated:
- services/mana-stt/CLAUDE.md, README.md — fully rewritten for the
Windows GPU reality (CUDA WhisperX, Scheduled Task ManaSTT, .env keys
matching the actual production .env on the box)
- services/mana-tts/CLAUDE.md, README.md — same treatment, documenting
Kokoro/Piper/F5-TTS on the Windows GPU under Scheduled Task ManaTTS
- scripts/mac-mini/README.md — dropped the STT setup section, replaced
with a pointer to docs/WINDOWS_GPU_SERVER_SETUP.md and the per-service
CLAUDE.md files
- docs/MAC_MINI_SERVER.md — expanded the "deactivated launchagents"
list to mention the now-removed plists, added the full GPU service
port table with public URLs, added a cleanup snippet for any old plists
still installed on a Mac Mini somewhere
Adds end-to-end browser voice capture for the Memoro module, mirroring the
existing dreams pattern: MediaRecorder → SvelteKit server proxy → mana-stt
on the Windows GPU box via Cloudflare tunnel.
Recording UI lives in /memoro page header (mic button + live timer + cancel +
sticky-permission retry). Server proxy at /api/v1/memoro/transcribe forwards
the blob with the server-held X-API-Key. memosStore.createFromVoice creates a
placeholder memo with processingStatus='processing' and fires transcribeBlob
in the background, which writes the transcript and flips status on completion
(or 'failed' with error in metadata).
Also corrects the mana-stt hostname across the repo: stt-api.mana.how (which
never existed in DNS) → gpu-stt.mana.how (the actual Cloudflare tunnel route
to the Windows GPU box). Adds an ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLES.md section explaining
how to obtain MANA_STT_API_KEY and where the tunnel terminates. Adds tunnel
health probes to the mac-mini health-check script so we catch tunnel-side
breakage in addition to LAN-side.

- Disable vLLM by default (has issues on macOS CPU)
- Use Mistral API for Voxtral transcription (cloud-based)
- Keep Whisper-MLX for local transcription
- Update README with architecture diagram

Add mana-stt service with Whisper and Voxtral support for local
transcription. Includes setup script and launchd integration for
automatic startup on Mac Mini server.
