A voice transcription and script launching app, written leveraging Termux
This setup can be used to create a 'push button' assistant (which is in fact what I am in the process of setting it up for) where you quickly record your command, and once finished it runs through the whole processing pipeline. I will be releasing more python/java scripts to do just this, and eventually turning it into a native Android app once I've formalized some of the design. I figured it was something people in this sub might be interested in. You can get the APK, the sample launching script, and the setup instructions on my Github. If you're interested in following the project you can do so at r/SapphireFramework

It's foolish to think open source isn't possible on Android.
Google Assistant: Dicio is already on F-Droid but it won't get what you are saying. Possible actions are limited. There's also Athena that's in development, though it is not ready for any kind of use. Depending on whether you need some sort of an accessibility service, you can get away with ditching Ok Google / Alexa / Cortana / Bixby. TalkBack should help with it too.

Is there a viable AOSP speech-to-text app?
Along with what you said, the Athena project also seem like interesting - even though you have to build it. Yet this video indicates that the developer knows what he is doing

[Request] Problem with 3rd party launcher and recent apps screen on Hi Reader Pro
I would like to use Lawnchair on my Hi Reader Pro, but whenever I set it to use a third party launcher (obviously I haven't tried them all, but I tried 5 or 6 with the same outcome) the "Recent Apps" (Square Button) stops working after a few uses. By that I mean: nothing happens when it's clicked.
