+"""Wyoming Satellite wrapper — echo suppression, writer resilience, streaming timeout.
+
+Monkey-patches WakeStreamingSatellite to fix three compounding bugs that cause
+the satellite to freeze after the first voice command:
+
+1. TTS Echo: Mic picks up speaker audio → false wake word trigger → Whisper
+   hallucinates on silence. Fix: mute mic→wake forwarding while speaker is active.
+
+2. Server Writer Race: HA disconnects after first command, _writer becomes None.
+   If wake word fires before HA reconnects, _send_run_pipeline() silently drops
+   the event → satellite stuck in is_streaming=True forever.
+   Fix: check _writer before entering streaming mode; re-arm wake if no server.
+
+3. No Streaming Timeout: Once stuck in streaming mode, there's no recovery.
+   Fix: auto-reset after 30s if no Transcript arrives.
+
+4. Error events don't reset streaming state in upstream code.
+   Fix: reset is_streaming on Error events from server.
+
+Usage: python3 satellite_wrapper.py <same args as wyoming_satellite>
