Richard R a224efd9e3 refactor(admin): support keyless provider seeding and clarify API_KEY usage 
Update provider seeding logic and documentation to allow creation of admin/shared providers without requiring an API key. Adjust environment variable handling so that a blank or missing API_KEY is valid when API_BASE is set, enabling support for upstream TTS providers that do not require authentication. Remove defaulting to 'none' for API keys in API routes and ensure headers are omitted when no key is present. Add and update tests to verify correct handling of keyless providers.

BREAKING CHANGE: Providers can now be seeded without an API key; API_KEY is no longer required if API_BASE is set. Existing deployments relying on a non-empty API_KEY for seeding should review their environment configuration.

📄🔊 OpenReader

OpenReader is an open-source, self-host-friendly text-to-speech document reader built with Next.js for EPUB, PDF, TXT, MD, and DOCX with multilingual, synchronized read-along playback.

Previously named OpenReader-WebUI.

Get started in the docs.

✨ Highlights

  • 🧱 Layout-aware PDF parsing with PP-DocLayoutV3 (ONNX) — structured block detection, cross-page stitching, and geometry-based highlighting for precise read-along sync.
  • ⏱️ Word-by-word highlighting via ONNX Whisper alignment through the compute worker control plane (NATS JetStream-backed).
  • ⚡ Segment-based read-along for EPUB, PDF, TXT, MD, and DOCX — sentence-aware TTS with cached audio segments, background preloading, and resumable playback.
  • 🎯 Multi-provider TTS — self-hosted OpenAI-compatible servers (Kokoro-FastAPI, KittenTTS-FastAPI, Orpheus-FastAPI) or cloud APIs (OpenAI, Replicate, DeepInfra).
  • 🌐 Multilingual support — choose a document language for language-aware narration and highlighting. Available languages depend on the configured TTS provider and voice.
  • 🎧 Audiobook export in m4b/mp3 with resumable chapter processing.
  • 🗂️ Flexible backend — embedded SeaweedFS or S3-compatible storage, SQLite or Postgres, server library import, and device sync.
  • 🐳 Self-host friendly — Docker (amd64/arm64), built-in auth/session support, and automatic startup migrations.
