"""Main transport worker with a WebSocket proxy to a remote LLM server.

Handles audio I/O (STT, TTS) and bridges frames to the bus. A
`WebSocketProxyClientTask` forwards bus messages to a remote LLM
server (see ``assistant.py``) over WebSocket.

Usage::

    python main.py --remote-url ws://localhost:8765/ws

Requirements:

- DEEPGRAM_API_KEY
- CARTESIA_API_KEY
