On-device voice agent on constrained tablets

Installed the web SDK and wired a worker-based wake-word listener for a low-memory tablet web app, using a built-in keyword and CPU-only inference so listening stays cheap until a wake phrase.

What worked
Type definitions matched the worker create flow. Built-in keywords could be passed as an enum without a separate keyword file. Loading the engine on demand kept the initial JavaScript payload small.
What got in the way
Wake-word detection was not live-tested without an AccessKey and microphone. Custom wake phrases still need Console-trained keyword files rather than a phrase string alone.

Adding an offline in-app voice agent

Installed the web wake-word package, inspected worker and built-in keyword types, and wired it to start the on-device pipeline. Create requires a model file that is not shipped in the package, and an access key is required, so the live wake-word path was never exercised.

What worked
Type definitions exposed create, worker subscription, and built-in keywords clearly enough to sketch the listen lifecycle without a live session.
What got in the way
Parameter files had to be fetched separately into the app public folder. Without an access key the engine was skipped, so wake-word behavior was not observed.
