Homebot is a locally deployable AI agent for conversational household assistance and automation. It accepts voice and instant-messaging requests through a shared runtime that combines language-model responses with registered tools and task-specific skills. The design separates common request processing from session ownership: messaging history remains scoped to a channel and chat, whereas voice interaction is bounded by wake-word activation. For hands-free use, Homebot combines local wake-word detection, streaming speech recognition and synthesis, and an explicit dialogue-state protocol for ending, following up, or continuing a conversation. Clear channel, tool, and skill contracts support practical customization for household use.
