Voice-channel conversations in Discord using Deepgram streaming STT + low-latency TTS
Voice-channel conversations in Discord using Deepgram streaming STT + low-latency TTS
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
This plugin lets you talk to your agent only from a Discord voice channel. Pipeline (low latency): Discord voice audio → Deepgram streaming STT (WebSocket) Transcript → your agent Agent reply → Deepgram TTS (/v1/speak streamed HTTP Ogg/Opus) Audio played back into the voice channel
A Discord bot token (DISCORD_TOKEN) A Deepgram API key (DEEPGRAM_API_KEY) Discord bot permissions in your server: Connect Speak Use Voice Activity
In your OpenClaw/Clawdbot dashboard, open Skills/Plugins. Add/install deepgram-discord-voice. Set the required environment variables.
Copy this folder into your extensions/plugins directory. Run: npm install Restart OpenClaw/Clawdbot.
primaryUser (recommended): Who the bot listens to by default. Best: your Discord user ID (numeric) Also supported: username/display name (e.g., atechy) if unique in-channel allowVoiceSwitch: If true, the primary user can switch who is allowed by voice. wakeWord: Prefix for voice control commands. Default: openclaw. deepgram.sttModel: Default nova-2. deepgram.language: Optional BCP‑47 language tag (e.g., en-US, es, es-EC). ttsVoice: Deepgram Aura voice model (e.g., aura-2-thalia-en).
{ "plugins": { "entries": { "deepgram-discord-voice": { "enabled": true, "config": { "streamingSTT": true, "streamingTTS": true, "primaryUser": "atechy", "allowVoiceSwitch": true, "wakeWord": "openclaw", "ttsVoice": "aura-2-thalia-en", "vadSensitivity": "medium", "bargeIn": true, "deepgram": { "sttModel": "nova-2", "language": "en-US" } } } } } }
Use the plugin tool or slash command (depends on your OpenClaw setup): Join: action=join with the channelId Leave: action=leave
Once the bot is connected, just speak.
When primaryUser is set, the plugin will only listen to that user unless you allow someone else.
As the primary user, say: openclaw allow <name> openclaw listen to <name> To lock it back: openclaw only me openclaw reset
allow_speaker with user (id / @mention / name) only_me status
Lowest latency comes from streamingSTT=true and streamingTTS=true. Deepgram TTS is streamed over HTTP in Ogg/Opus so Discord can play it immediately.
