You can definately read more about my voice implimentations in my blog posts (linked below) or on the main repo page. Voice separates the average home from the Smart Home. Once you start teaching your home to talk, tweet or text, you'll be hard pressed to stop.</p>

### Featured files to browse
| File | Why it matters |
| --- | --- |
| [announcements.yaml](announcements.yaml) | Daily/occasional broadcast messages with quiet hours. |
| [home_stats.yaml](home_stats.yaml) | Voice summary of house status and interesting stats. |
| [guest_mode.yaml](guest_mode.yaml) | Adjust announcements and behaviors while guests are over. |
| [High_Wind_Speed_Check.yaml](High_Wind_Speed_Check.yaml) | Warn about severe wind before it causes issues. |
### Tips
- Pairs with `script/speech_engine.yaml` and `templates/speech/briefing.yaml` for reusable phrasing.
- Keep announcements short; most are triggered off sensor changes or scheduled briefings.
