Trying out OVOS on my Mark II, and using the ovos-personal-backend on a docker container. I noticed that there is a ovos-backend-manager project and wernt to roll my own docker container for it, but noticed that it is already installed via the ovos-personal-backend Dockerfile https://github.com/OpenVoiceOS/ovos-personal-backend/blob/dev/Dockerfile

I would like a voice assistant for Home Assistant. What are my options ?

MycroftAI : Does seem to be going away - They are currently winding down operations. Apparently the local-only OpenVoiceOS personal backend will also work as a backend for Mycroft - that repo has a Dockerfile. I haven't used Selene or the OVOS personal backend but would sway towards the OVOS solution.

some great responses here already, if you want to verify what information is sent you can also install the mock-backend. the logs will show you exactly what is being sent.

If your request does not register with a skill, it will also reach back to the Mycroft server as a final try and use the Wolfram Alpha service to try to handle it. This is the default fall-back skill. (see https://github.com/MycroftAI/fallback-wolfram-alpha)
