run_tts is called as run_tts(self, text, context_id); the override only accepted
(self, text), so every utterance raised "takes 2 positional arguments but 3
were given" and produced no audio — callers heard nothing on every call since
the number-normalization change. Added context_id and pass it through. Verified
the service now emits audio (118KB for a sample) with digits normalized.

Kokoro spoke "983-4969" as "nine hundred eighty-three dash forty-nine sixty-
nine". Added SpokenKokoroTTSService which normalizes text just before synthesis
(run_tts gets the full sentence): US phone patterns and 4-5 digit runs (street
numbers, zips) are spoken one digit at a time, country code dropped, no "dash"/
parens. Dates and times are left natural. Deterministic, so it's robust to
whatever the model emits.

A real call derailed: AVA argued about today's date, parroted the canned date
example, hallucinated appointment availability, and rambled. Root cause was the
date-validation feature — the local 8B model computes appointment dates wrong
~5/5 in testing, so having it state/correct dates is a liability.
- DATES: capture & defer — AVA takes the day/time in the caller's own words,
never computes/states/corrects the calendar date, never argues about today;
staff confirm the exact date on callback. Removed the 45-day calendar
injection and _date_context()/datetime use.
- Hardened the no-availability rule (no "openings", no "check availability",
no "I'll book").
- Brevity: one short sentence per reply (two at most).
Post-call extractor still records a best-effort resolved date (staff-verified).

In-call (system prompt + per-call calendar injection):
- Gather full name (prompt asks for last name if only first given).
- Confirm the caller-ID number; if declined, use the number the caller gives.
- Ask for and LOG insurance only — never promise/confirm/deny coverage or
treatment based on it; staff verify on callback.
- Validate the requested date against an injected 45-day calendar (recomputed
per call since the server is long-running). Push back on impossible/mismatched
dates, e.g. "Monday lands on the sixth — would you like that date?".
- AGENT_NAME=AVA; 4s grace pause before hang-up (HANGUP_DELAY_SECS).
Logging (post-call extraction -> Odoo):
- Extract full name, phone_confirmed, chosen callback (caller-ID or alternate),
insurance, reason, and preferred time annotated with a resolved YYYY-MM-DD
date (today's date is fed to the extractor).
- odoo_client: insurance row on the lead note (log only — staff verify).
.gitignore: ignore rotated avc_run.log* files.

Deepgram and the Twilio Standard API Key were reverted per decision:
- bot.py: restore HintedWhisperSTTService (faster-whisper hotwords), default
model medium; remove DeepgramSTTService import + DEEPGRAM_API_KEY.
- server.py: restore TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN for X-Twilio-Signature validation and
the serializer auto-hang-up. Twilio signs webhooks with the Auth Token, so
an API Key Secret cannot validate signatures.
- .env.example: back to TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN + Whisper STT vars.
- .gitignore: ignore runtime *.log (avc_run.log).
OLLAMA_MODEL stays activeblue-avc:latest (the existing pulled tag).
