Utterances cross as chunks with an explicit terminator, so whole-utterance is a stream of one chunk and a streaming TTS needs no protocol change. Records what must not be built — a single-body download-then-play player — since that forecloses streaming silently. Also notes the transport is fully exercisable with espeak-ng or a canned WAV, so audio transport need not wait on GPT-SoVITS. The provider-behind-an-interface shape has now been picked three times independently, so it is named as the project idiom rather than re-derived.
