simple-virtual-assistant 0.0.4

A simple voice assistant meant to be easily extensible.

Description

simplevirtual-assistant is an extremely simple Python module that allows one to create their own voice assistants, using the transcription ability of faster-whisper, the messaging ability of a configurable LLM, and the tooling ability of langchain.

Caveat

This is not meant for large projects. I primarily wrote it to use in my frame-assist package.

Compatbility

Tested on Debian Linux and Windows 10.

Example

main.py contains a fairly simple example of an Ollama-powered large language model chatbot that answers user questions.

Requirements:

• Ollama with the --model you specify already pulled (defaults to qwen3:8b)
• ffmpeg (on Windows) for voice recording
• arecord (on Linux) for voice recording

Usage

python -m venv virtual-assistant-venv
source virtual-assistant-venv/bin/activate 
python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
python main.py
