+## Private Jetson voice: multilingual TTS policy
+
+`hermes-tts` on `titan-21` bakes three checksum-pinned Piper voices and
+selects one per request from a fixed, allow-listed `language` field: `en`/
+`en-US` → `en_US-amy-medium`, `ru`/`ru-RU` → `ru_RU-irina-medium`, `es`/
+`es-MX`/`es-ES` → `es_MX-claude-high` (Piper's `claude` voice is Mexican
+Spanish; there is no Castilian `es_ES-claude`). Matching is case-insensitive
+and accepts both `_` and `-` separators. Any language that is missing,
+unrecognized, or malformed falls back to English amy rather than erroring.
+The mapping is a fixed dict from `language` to one of the three baked model
+names only — a client-supplied `voice` field is never read, so no client
+input can select or construct a model path. All three voices are preloaded
+at process start (see `dockerfiles/hermes-jetson-tts-server.py`).
+
+Hermes Chat deliberately exposes no TTS speaker/model choice. The deterministic
+WebUI image patch removes the pinned upstream voice selector, its label and
+translations, its browser/server preference persistence, and every outbound
+client `voice` field while preserving the TTS engine, speech rate/pitch,
+dictation, hands-free Voice Mode, and the conversation instrument. Legacy
+`hermes-tts-voice` browser state is deleted. Voice choice is therefore policy,
+not a client preference: validated English maps to amy, Russian to irina,
+Spanish to claude, and every unsupported or absent language falls back to amy.
+
+The private WebUI voice bridge (`dockerfiles/hermes-webui-atlas-voice.js`,
+patched into `api/routes.py` by `hermes-webui-atlas-patch.py`) has no signal
+for the language of the assistant reply it is about to speak — it sends only
+`text` and `engine`. Until the WebUI or gateway attaches an explicit
+`language` field to that request, every reply speaks in the safe English
+default regardless of its actual language. Closing that gap needs a language
+signal upstream of the TTS call (e.g. tagging the assistant turn with a
+detected/declared reply language and threading it through
+`hermes-webui-atlas-voice.js` → `api/routes.py` → the `language` field), not
+client- or server-side guessing bolted onto the TTS service itself.
