Working-tree changes that had accumulated without being committed. The test
updates matter most: tests/test_caller_gen.py was left behind when caller_gen
started requiring voice and age in regulars_included, so the committed tree had
a failing suite that only passed locally.
- Caller dialog moves from Haiku 4.5 to Sonnet 4.6 (~$1/show to ~$3-4/show)
- Grok pinned to x-ai/grok-4.3; grok-4, grok-4-fast and grok-4.1-fast were
retired from OpenRouter, and llm.py swallows the 404 and returns empty text,
so a retired id makes callers go silent with nothing in the logs
- Devon's web_search now runs against SearXNG on the NAS
- Assorted TTS, audio, news, cost tracker and control-panel changes
- CLAUDE.md updated to match

Brings in the Phase 5B caller-generation rewrite:
- Slim two-stage pipeline: Sonnet 4.6 batch identity pregen at session
start, Haiku 4.5 live dialog per turn. Deletes CallerBackground
dataclass, shape/style/voice-matching, per-model routing, preflight UI.
- New caller_gen.py (slim prompt builder) and regulars_v2.py (Obsidian
lore loader for named recurring callers).
- Reworked caller buttons and info panel around the slim background:
identity, situation, signature, secret want. Removes shape badges,
energy dots, emotion info-badges.
- Inworld TTS: emotional_register -> (temperature, speed_adjust) mapping
via _emotional_register_to_params(). applyTextNormalization ON.
- Silas identity/voice leak fix, avatar gender, pre-warm batch gen.
- Archives old regulars to data/regulars.archived.json, adds 10 sample
caller transcripts under docs/samples/.
Post-merge fixes applied during resolution:
- intern.py: kept main's richer new_show() (NEW SHOW history marker,
trim, _save()) and _track_suggestion(); removed the branch's
duplicate minimal new_show() stub.
- tts.py: added 5 voice speed overrides (Graham, Malcolm, Victoria,
Loretta, Marlene) that main had tuned locally. Evelyn deliberately
NOT added to VOICE_PROFILES — she is in BLACKLISTED_VOICES for
unnatural prosody.
- Main's cost dashboard polish, LLM per-model params, and Devon show
context memory from commits c087c03..61b3cba carried through cleanly.
