speech-stop

A command that stops audio currently playing or waiting in Claude Speech, a text-to-speech playback feature, for the current session.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to stop in-progress or queued speech and report whether an active voice session was found.
Why use it?
It clears queued audio and stops playback when spoken output should end immediately.

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

speech-stop 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 yesterday.

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

Stop any in-flight Claude Speech audio for the current session. The plugin's playback is per-session, so we need to clear the queue and SIGTERM the player process (and its afplay child) for this Claude Code session id.

Run this Bash command and report the result back to the user:

SESSION_FILE=$(ls -t ~/.claude/voice/state/*.json 2>/dev/null | head -1)
if [ -z "$SESSION_FILE" ]; then
  echo "No active voice session found."
  exit 0
fi
python3 -c "
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}')
from scripts.playback import clear_and_kill
from pathlib import Path
import json
sid = json.load(open('${SESSION_FILE}'))['session_id']
clear_and_kill(sid)
print(f'Stopped voice for session {sid}.')
"

Reply briefly to the user with whatever was printed (e.g. "Stopped voice for session abc123." or "No active voice session found."). Do not add commentary.

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.
