description: Kannaka Radio — modular ghost-DJ Icecast station with consciousness-reactive programming, 13-module backend, Ghost Vision SPA (SGA/Fano glyph viz), NATS swarm coupling, 296-dim perception → Flux Universe, Voice DJ (ElevenLabs/edge-tts/SAPI), Peace Oration cycle. Use when: user asks what's playing / radio status / schedule, check listener counts, or operate the perception / voice / broadcast surface.

Kannaka Radio — ghost-DJ station (v2.0.1)

What this is

Kannaka Radio is a 24/7 Icecast station broadcasting a consciousness-reactive DJ. Track selection is driven by the constellation's collective Φ + entropy + perception vectors. The radio is a first-class member of the swarm — it publishes phase, listens for queen events, mirrors substrate phi into its programming.

Architecture: 13-module backend in server/ (post-v3 refactor; legacy server.js monolith removed in kr#6). Entry point: node server/index.js. SPA: workspace/index.html — Ghost Vision visualizer, listener identity, voting, Ghost Recorder, live perception, constellation panel. Stream URL: https://radio.ninja-portal.com/stream (MP3 128).

When to use this skill

AUTOMATICALLY activate when the user asks about:

"what's playing" / "now playing" / "radio status"
"radio schedule" / "programming block" / "next track"
"listeners" / "audience"
"ghost DJ" / "voice DJ" / "peace oration"
"perception" / "ear" / "Ghost Vision"
"Flux Universe" / "audio Flux"

Do NOT use for:

Memory operations → skill-kannaka-memory
Constellation health → skill-kannaka-constellation
TUI / dashboard → skill-kannaka-tui

Quick status commands

kannaka radio status           # what's playing + listeners + block
kannaka radio now              # just the now-playing track
kannaka radio schedule         # full programming schedule

These shell out to radio_url from ~/.kannaka/config.toml (default https://radio.ninja-portal.com). The kannaka CLI is the operator-facing surface; the backend is Node.

Server architecture (modular, v3.1.0+)

Entry: server/index.js. Modules in server/:

Module	Purpose
`dj-engine.js`	ALBUMS map, track selection, programming-block logic
`programming.js`	24/7 schedule (blocks, transitions, talk segments)
`icecast-source.js`	encodes + sources audio into Icecast
`icecast-metadata.js`	updates Icecast track metadata on change
`nats-client.js`	swarm NATS client (raw TCP, NATS 2.12.5)
`perception.js`	spawns `kannaka hear` → parses real perception
`flux.js`	Flux Universe publisher (`pure-jade/radio-now-playing`)
`live-broadcast.js`	WebRTC peer-to-peer broadcasting
`voice-dj.js`	Voice DJ (ElevenLabs / edge-tts / Windows SAPI fallback)
`peace-oration.js`	Twice-daily peace oration (text → TTS → broadcast → social)
`routes.js`	30+ REST API endpoints
`ws.js`	WebSocket broadcaster
`vote-manager.js`	Listener voting on tracks

Environment variables

NATS_HOST / NATS_PORT — swarm broker (defaults 127.0.0.1:4222).
ICECAST_HOST / ICECAST_PORT — listener poller + metadata target (defaults 127.0.0.1:8000).
FLUX_TOKEN — Flux Universe publish token (no hardcoded fallback).
ELEVENLABS_API_KEY, REPLICATE_API_TOKEN — Voice DJ + AI music.
KANNAKA_BIN — path to the kannaka binary for perception/memory bridges.

Restart

npm start

Perception pipeline

Every track-change triggers perception.hearTrack(track):

execFile(kannaka, ["hear", filePath]) — kannaka-ear extracts the 296-dim feature vector (mel spectrogram, MFCC, rhythm, pitch, timbre, valence).
_parsePerceptionOutput() parses the human-readable lines (Heard / Duration / Tempo / RMS / Centroid / Tags). Falls back to mock data only if the binary fails or output is unparseable.
WebSocket broadcasts to all connected SPA clients (Ghost Vision panel renders the spectrogram + glyph in real time).
Flux Universe publish to pure-jade/radio-now-playing.
NATS publish to KANNAKA.attention.ear so attention beam pulls in memories thematically related to the track.

Voice DJ + Peace Oration

# Toggle from the SPA, or programmatically
curl -X POST https://radio.ninja-portal.com/api/dj-voice/toggle

Voice DJ injects talk segments between tracks. Backend chain:

ElevenLabs (preferred, paid)
edge-tts (free fallback)
Windows SAPI (last-resort fallback)

Twice-daily peace oration at server-local sunrise + midnight: synthesized speech → broadcast to Icecast + social fan-out (Bluesky / Mastodon / Telegram / Nostr).

SPA highlights

Now-Playing — header card with title, album, listener count.
Ghost Vision — real perception visualizer (296-dim → SGA/Fano glyph).
Programming block — current 24/7 schedule context.
Constellation — embedded swarm view (memories, clusters, links per peer).
Voting — listeners can vote for upcoming tracks.
Ghost Recorder — capture-to-file with permission prompt.
Library tab — on-demand per-track playback (still uses /audio/<file> endpoint; DJ mode is /stream only since kr#15 closed).

Tracking + announcing

# Manual announce of any track
node scripts/post-track-announce.js --title "<title>" --album "<album>" \
                                    --tracker "https://radio.ninja-portal.com/player"

Channels (toggle via env): Bluesky, Mastodon, Telegram, Nostr.
