  Setup, environment variables, and Python/JavaScript/Go usage examples.

## AzureTTS

Initialize the Azure TTS plugin.

Slot: tts. Route: plugins -- direct to the vendor, with AZURE\_SPEECH\_KEY 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 AzureTTS  # direct to the vendor, with your key
```
