## Description

Jasper Client is a voice computing client and extensible speech framework designed to translate natural language speech into hardware actions and service requests. It functions as a voice command interface that manages the end-to-end process of audio capture, transcription, and action execution.

The system features a modular architecture that allows for the integration of custom plugins, various speech recognition engines, and synthesis providers. This plugin-based approach supports the addition of new speakers and regional language capabilities without altering the core logic.

The client includes a wake-word detection engine that monitors background audio streams for specific acoustic triggers. To maintain interface responsiveness, it utilizes a multi-threaded audio pipeline that offloads audio processing and transcription to separate execution threads.
