# Deepgram Discord Voice (Clawdbot/OpenClaw Plugin)
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
## Requirements
- A Discord bot token (`DISCORD_TOKEN`)
- A Deepgram API key (`DEEPGRAM_API_KEY`)
- Discord bot permissions in your server:
- **Connect**
- **Speak**
- **Use Voice Activity**
## Install
### Option A: Install from ClawHub
1. In your OpenClaw/Clawdbot dashboard, open **Skills/Plugins**.
2. Add/install **deepgram-discord-voice**.
3. Set the required environment variables.
### Option B: Manual install
1. Copy this folder into your extensions/plugins directory.
2. Run:
```bash
npm install
```
3. Restart OpenClaw/Clawdbot.
## Configuration
### Key settings
- `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`).
### Example config
```json5
{
"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"
}
}
}
}
}
}
```
## Usage
### Join a voice channel
Use the plugin tool or slash command (depends on your OpenClaw setup):
- Join: `action=join` with the `channelId`
- Leave: `action=leave`
### Talk (voice channel)
Once the bot is connected, just speak.
### Safeguard: only listen to you (default)
When `primaryUser` is set, the plugin will only listen to that user unless you allow someone else.
### Let someone else talk (voice commands)
As the primary user, say:
- `openclaw allow <name>`
- `openclaw listen to <name>`
To lock it back:
- `openclaw only me`
- `openclaw reset`
### Switch via tool actions (optional)
- `allow_speaker` with `user` (id / @mention / name)
- `only_me`
- `status`
## Notes
- Lowest latency comes from `streamingSTT=true` and `streamingTTS=true`.
- Deepgram TTS is streamed over HTTP in **Ogg/Opus** so Discord can play it immediately.Related Skills
