## GoogleSTT

Initialize the Google STT plugin.

Slot: stt. Route: plugins -- direct to the vendor, with
GOOGLE\_APPLICATION\_CREDENTIALS or an explicit api\_key.

The target accepts \*\*kwargs, so the fields below are what it documents
rather than everything it tolerates; the rest go through `extra`.

```python theme={null}
from zeroruntime.plugins import GoogleSTT  # direct to the vendor, with your key
from zeroruntime.inference import GoogleSTT  # same fields, through the gateway, no vendor key
```
