+ """Generates audio chunks through an audio.cpp audiocpp_server.
+
+ Talks to the OpenAI-style HTTP API of audiocpp_server, which hosts TTS
+ model families through a native ggml runtime (GGUF weights, no Python
+ serving stack). The server API is family-agnostic; the family and task
+ of the configured model entry are read from GET /v1/models at startup
+ and adapt the request payload (language field style, style instructions)
+ through AUDIOCPP_FAMILY_PROFILES. Three voice modes, all resolved
+ server-side from the request's "voice"/"instructions" fields:
+
+ - Speaker mode (no ``voice``): Qwen3-TTS only. A built-in CustomVoice
+ speaker name (e.g. "Vivian") is passed through, plus the INSTRUCT
+ style prompt. The server must be configured with the CustomVoice
+ model for this. Families without built-in speakers reject this mode
+ with a hint to pass --voice (or --instructions, see below).
+ - Preset mode (``voice=NAME``): a voice configured on the server
+ (``voice_presets`` or ``voice_dir`` in its config, e.g. a cloning
+ reference). The name is validated against GET /v1/audio/voices at
+ startup because an unresolvable name would silently fall back to
+ plain TTS on a clone-based model instead of failing. When
+ AUDIOCPP_CLONE_MODEL_ID names a second server entry of the same
+ family (typically the Qwen Base model), preset requests are routed
+ to it. Only the entry actually used needs to exist on the server: a
+ clone-only (Base) server works for --voice runs, while speaker mode
+ on such a server fails with a hint to pass --voice.
+ - Voice design (task "vdes" entries, e.g. Qwen3-TTS VoiceDesign): the
+ voice is described in natural language through ``instructions``,
+ which is required and sent with every request (no ``voice`` field).
+ A constant per-run seed keeps the designed voice consistent across
+ chunk boundaries.
+
+ ``instructions`` also works on non-design entries, where it acts as a
+ generic style/delivery instruction (voice control): families that read
+ it (OmniVoice, Qwen3-TTS CustomVoice, ...) shape the voice or delivery
+ accordingly, and others ignore it. On instruction-conditioned families
+ without built-in speakers it may replace --voice entirely (the
+ instruction defines the voice). Extra request options (``--option
+ KEY=VALUE``, e.g. emotion, voice_id, speed) are forwarded verbatim in
+ the request's "options" object, which is the server's generic
+ pass-through for per-model controls.
+
+ Chunking: the server does its own long-form text chunking for every
+ family (its ``text_chunk_size`` option, with a per-family default), so
+ by default each chapter is sent as a single request and the audio
+ comes back already stitched. With ``chunk_text=True`` (the --chunk CLI
+ flag), text is instead split client-side into CHUNK_SIZE-word
+ sub-requests, which may needlessly double-chunk — the warning is
+ printed by the CLI.
+
+ Each response is a complete WAV file, so sub-request audio is
+ concatenated with the same lossless path used for the Qwen client.
