SAM (Software Automatic Mouth) is a text-to-speech engine that generates retro robotic audio in the style of the Commodore 64 era. It supports a persistent toggle mode where all agent responses are spoken aloud, plus one-off voice generation via the /sam command. Voice characteristics like pitch, speed, mouth, and throat are adjustable per-session.
Unlike cloud TTS services, SAM runs entirely offline with no API keys or network calls, producing its distinctive lo-fi robotic voice deterministically.

- Adding robotic narration to automated notifications
- Generating retro-style voice replies in a chat session
- Testing phonetic pronunciation for C64-style audio projects
- Creating WAV voice clips for Discord or Telegram bots
- Toggling all agent responses into spoken robotic audio
