Feature Request: Discord Voice Channel Support

Context:
OpenClaw recently added native Discord voice channel support in their 2026.2.21 "Freshbits — voices unlocked" release. Since TinyClaw is inspired by OpenClaw, it would be valuable to bring this capability to TinyClaw's multi-agent architecture.

Proposed Features

Core Voice Capabilities

• Join/leave voice channels via slash commands (/vc join|leave|status)
• Streaming STT (Deepgram or Whisper) for real-time speech transcription
• TTS responses for spoken agent replies in voice channels
• Barge-in support to interrupt agent mid-response
• Auto-reconnect for session reliability
• Stale call reaper to auto-end stuck calls

Multi-Agent Enhancement

Since TinyClaw supports multiple agents and teams, voice channel support could enable:

• Agent-specific voice personalities (different TTS voices per agent)
• Voice-based agent routing (user says "@coder fix the bug" → transcribed → routed to coder agent)
• Team collaboration in voice (multiple agents responding in same VC)

Implementation Reference

OpenClaw's implementation uses:

• Discord gateway API for voice connections
• Streaming STT (Deepgram/Whisper)
• TTS for spoken responses
• Background listening controls
• Enhanced interruption handling

Reference code: https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw
Documentation: https://docs.openclaw.ai/channels/discord

Use Cases

1. Hands-free coding sessions - Ask @coder to debug while in VC
2. Voice standups - Team leader gives voice status updates
3. Accessibility - Voice interaction for users who prefer not to type
4. Mobile-first workflows - Discord mobile voice + TinyClaw agents

Priority

Would be nice to have but not urgent. Main value is keeping TinyClaw feature-complete with OpenClaw's latest capabilities while leveraging TinyClaw's unique multi-agent architecture.
