TL;DR
- You want to try the Xiaozhi voice assistant on a computer without ESP32 hardware.
- You want offline wake words with Sherpa-ONNX, echo cancellation and a GUI or command-line mode.
- You want ready MCP tools such as schedules, timers, music, train tickets, web search and maps.
- You want a self-contained assistant: AI features depend on the Xiaozhi service.
- You cannot use Python 3.9 to 3.12, working audio devices and an internet connection.
- You want to self-host the backend: that is the server projects' job.
