Praxis CI 376fddf18e feat(P01-04-03,P01-04-04): wire store into pipeline + per-session cost logging
server/cost.py — derive_cost() counts LLM input/output tokens (gemma4 +
deepseek-v4-flash), Deepgram audio minutes, Cartesia/Piper characters;
derives estimated cents from scenarios/cost_rates.yaml. No enforced ceiling
(D-012 pilot). CostBreakdown dataclass carries the breakdown dict stored in
sessions.cost_breakdown_json. Per G-005: v0.1 logged costs are pilot-config
(Ollama tier + cloud), NOT at-scale /learner economics — that requires
self-hosted gemma4:e4b + Piper (post-pilot).

server/session_recorder.py — SessionRecorder wires the SQLite store into the
pipeline lifecycle: start() creates a session row, log_turn() writes turns
with ASR/TTS text + latency + accumulates cost inputs, set_branch_path(),
end() derives cost + writes outcome + debrief + updates progress. No auth —
learner_id is the hardcoded learner-1 (D-007).

7 tests pass (derive_cost basic/piper-zero/breakdown-dict, load_rates yaml,
no-enforced-ceiling, recorder full lifecycle with DB assertions, progress
updated).

Praxis — v0.1 Foundation

Voice-first AI apprenticeship platform. v0.1 is a tech-validation harness (per G-008) for the minimal viable voice loop: a single learner speaks to an AI tutor playing a Customer Service role-play scenario, hears a <600ms-latency response, receives an end-of-session coaching debrief, and has the session logged to SQLite.

Status

Phase 1 (minimal viable voice loop) — code-complete, pending live API keys for runtime verification.

Stack

  • Orchestration: Pipecat (D-017) with Silero VAD + interruptibility
  • ASR: Deepgram Nova-3 streaming (D-013)
  • LLM: Ollama Cloud direct API (D-020) — gemma4:cloud (role-play) + deepseek-v4-flash:cloud no-think (debrief)
  • TTS: Cartesia Sonic (primary, D-014) / Piper (self-hosted, R4 mitigation) — behind an interface
  • Client: React + Vite + WebRTC (Pipecat client SDK, D-015)
  • State: SQLite praxis.db (D-007, single hardcoded learner, no auth)

Layout

server/      Pipecat pipeline, services (TTS/LLM/Guardrail interfaces), scenario runtime, adapters
client/      React + Vite + WebRTC learner surface
scenarios/   YAML scenario definitions (D-018)
db/          SQLite schema, migrations, async store
scripts/     Latency probes (R1-R4), e2e smoke
tests/       Unit + e2e
docs/        Latency report, debrief templates

Quickstart

  1. Copy .env.example.env, fill in DEEPGRAM_API_KEY, CARTESIA_API_KEY, OLLAMA_API_KEY.
  2. Install server deps: pip install -e ".[dev]"
  3. Install client deps: cd client && npm install
  4. Run probes: python scripts/probe_deepgram.py (etc.)
  5. Run server: python -m server
  6. Run client: cd client && npm run dev

See docs/latency-report.md for the R1-R4 spike status and TTS decision.
