feat(backend/ai-services): Phase 3 - Model validation and setup guide

Browse source 
Phase 3 Tasks Completed:
- Added model directory validation to VoskService constructor
- Added configuration validation to TtsService constructor
- Added comprehensive setup instructions to VoskConfig and CoquiConfig
- Added AI Model Setup Guide to docs/features/ai-services.md with:
  - Vosk model download and setup instructions
  - Coqui TTS model download and setup instructions
  - Mistral API configuration guide
  - Verification commands
  - Troubleshooting table
- Updated appsettings.json and appsettings.Development.json with comments

All configuration is now validated on service startup with helpful error messages
that guide users to download and configure the required models.

Build: Success
Tests: 296 passing (148 unit + 148 integration)

### 📥 AI Model Setup Guide
This section provides step-by-step instructions for downloading and configuring the AI models required for Vosk and Coqui TTS services.
#### Vosk Speech Recognition Model (vosk-model-de-0.22)
**Size:** ~500MB
**Download and Setup:**
```bash
# 1. Create models directory
mkdir -p models/vosk
# 2. Download the German model
wget https://alphacephei.com/vosk/models/vosk-model-de-0.22.zip -P models/vosk/
# 3. Extract the model
cd models/vosk/
unzip vosk-model-de-0.22.zip
cd ../../
# 4. Verify the model directory structure
# You should have: models/vosk/vosk-model-de-0.22/
# With files: model, ivector, etc.
```
**Configuration:**
```json
{
"Vosk": {
"PythonPath": "python3",
"ModelPath": "./models/vosk-model-de-0.22",
"SampleRate": 16000,
"TimeoutSeconds": 30,
"BeamWidth": 20
}
}
```
**Verification:**
```bash
# Test Vosk installation
python3 -c "import vosk; print('Vosk installed successfully')"
# Test model loading
python3 -c "from vosk import Model; Model('./models/vosk-model-de-0.22'); print('Model loaded successfully')"
```
**Alternative Models:**
- `vosk-model-small-de-0.15` - Smaller model (~50MB), less accurate
- `vosk-model-de-0.42` - Larger model (~1.5GB), more accurate
---
#### Coqui TTS Model (tts_models/de/deu/fairseq/vits)
**Size:** ~1.5GB (auto-downloaded on first use)
**Download and Setup:**
**Option 1: Auto-download (Recommended)**
The Coqui TTS library will automatically download the model on first use. Just ensure:
1. Python 3.8+ is installed
2. `pip install TTS`
3. Sufficient disk space (~1.5GB)
**Option 2: Pre-download Model**
```bash
# 1. Install Coqui TTS
pip install TTS
# 2. Pre-download the German model (optional)
python3 -c "from TTS.api import TTS; TTS(model_name='tts_models/de/deu/fairseq/vits')"
# This will download the model to ~/.local/share/tts/
```
**Configuration:**
```json
{
"Coqui": {
"PythonPath": "python3",
"ModelName": "tts_models/de/deu/fairseq/vits",
"OutputFormat": "wav",
"SampleRate": 22050,
"AudioStoragePath": "./tmp/tts-audio",
"MaxTextLength": 5000,
"TimeoutSeconds": 60
}
}
```
**Verification:**
```bash
# Test Coqui TTS installation
python3 -c "from TTS.api import TTS; print('Coqui TTS installed successfully')"
# Test text-to-speech generation
python3 -c "from TTS.api import TTS; tts = TTS(model_name='tts_models/de/deu/fairseq/vits'); tts.tts_to_file(text='Hallo Welt', file_path='/tmp/test.wav'); print('TTS generation successful')"
```
**Alternative German Models:**
- `tts_models/de/common-voice/fairseq-vits` - Alternative German model
- `tts_models/multilingual/multi-dataset/fairseq-vits` - Multi-language model
**Troubleshooting:**
| Issue | Solution |
|-------|----------|
| ModuleNotFoundError: vosk | Run `pip install vosk` |
| ModuleNotFoundError: TTS | Run `pip install TTS` |
| Model directory not found | Verify ModelPath points to extracted model directory |
| Permission denied | Use absolute paths or ensure write permissions |
| Out of disk space | Free up space or use smaller model |
| Python not found | Install Python 3.8+ or set correct PythonPath |
---
#### Mistral API Configuration
**Required:** Valid Mistral API key
**Setup:**
1. Get API key from https://console.mistral.ai/
2. Add to appsettings.json:
```json
{
"Mistral": {
"ApiKey": "your-api-key-here",
"BaseUrl": "https://api.mistral.ai/v1/",
"DefaultModel": "mistral-medium",
"TimeoutSeconds": 30,
"MaxRetries": 3,
"RateLimitPerMinute": 10,
"EnableCaching": true,
"CacheTTLMinutes": 60,
"CircuitBreakerFailureThreshold": 5,
"CircuitBreakerResetMinutes": 1
}
}
```
**Verification:**
```bash
# Test Mistral API connection
curl -X POST "https://api.mistral.ai/v1/completions" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"model": "mistral-medium", "prompt": "Say hello", "max_tokens": 10}'
```
