"""Main transport task — run on Machine A.

Handles audio I/O (STT, TTS) and bridges frames to the bus. The LLM
worker tasks run as separate processes (possibly on different
machines) and connect to the same Redis-backed `TaskBus`.

Usage::

    python main.py --redis-url redis://localhost:6379

Requirements:

- DEEPGRAM_API_KEY
- CARTESIA_API_KEY
