## Common questions

### Which port should I expose for the Wyoming protocol?

Expose container port 10204 on the host, for example as host port 10204.

### What directories must I mount for model and voice persistence?

Mount writable /app/models and /app/voices directories owned by the container user, default UID 99 and GID 100. The original model is never overwritten.

### Does the container require GPU acceleration or GPU libraries?

No, it runs CPU-only and the Docker runtime does not include GPU libraries.

### Which voice is used by default, and how are unknown voice names handled?

Juergen is the default voice. Unknown voice names produce a clear error.
