Checking the service socket, configured speech components, and recent speech activity or failures.
Why use it?
It shows whether the speech service is running and helps reveal recent errors without changing its settings.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

tts:status scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Report the current health of the claude-tts daemon. This is read-only — do not change any configuration.

Report:

  1. Daemon socket — is it bound at ${CLAUDE_TTS_SOCKET:-${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR:-/tmp}/claude-tts.sock}? Show bound or not bound. "Not bound" means the daemon is not running (hooks degrade silently).
  2. Active engine and LLM model — read voice.engine and the configured LLM model from ~/.config/claude-tts/config.json. If the config is missing, say so and suggest /tts:setup.
  3. Recent log tail — show the last ~15 lines of the daemon log so the user can see recent speech activity or errors. For exactly what was spoken (newest first, with category), point the user at /tts:log, which reads the per-session spoken-output log at ~/.claude/logs/tts/spoken/<session>.jsonl.

Keep the output compact and skimmable. For anything failing, point the user at /tts:doctor for a full diagnosis with remediations.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
