Irene is an offline-capable Russian voice assistant written in Python that recognizes speech via Vosk and responds using TTS engines. Its functionality is extended through a plugin system of skills, with optional integrations for LLMs like ChatGPT and Claude via OpenAI-compatible endpoints.

Use cases

• run an offline Russian voice assistant on my PC
• control my computer with voice commands in Russian
• build custom voice assistant skills with plugins
• connect a voice assistant to ChatGPT or GPT-4
• do speech recognition and TTS locally without cloud services
• set timers and run small utilities by voice

When to choose

• you need a Russian-language voice assistant that works fully offline
• you want an extensible assistant with a plugin/skill architecture
• you prefer local speech recognition (Vosk) over cloud APIs
• you want optional LLM integration through OpenAI-compatible endpoints

When to avoid

• you need a voice assistant in a language other than Russian
• you want a polished commercial-grade assistant out of the box
• you need mobile or embedded deployment
• you require guaranteed long-term support under a standard open-source license
