aima-tts

aima-tts is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Approaching-AI/AIMA. It costs 25 tokens per session (462 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A text-to-speech skill that turns short Chinese or English scripts into audio files using the AIMA model managed by AIMA or OpenClaw.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when someone asks for a voice reply or a short spoken clip. It can create a WAV file from text and supports optional voice-reference settings.
Why use it?
It removes the need to manually convert written replies into spoken audio and defines how the generated file should be returned.

    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

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

aima-tts scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/speak.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

What it actually says

AIMA Text-to-Speech

Generate speech audio from text using the TTS model currently managed by AIMA/OpenClaw.

When to use

  • The user explicitly asks for a spoken or voice reply.
  • The user asks you to say something aloud instead of only writing it.
  • The user wants a short audio clip in Chinese or English.

Required behavior

  • Write a short spoken script first.
  • Run {baseDir}/scripts/speak.sh with that script.
  • After OpenClaw attaches the generated media, reply with exactly NO_REPLY.
  • If TTS generation fails, give a brief text fallback that says the audio conversion failed.
  • Keep the spoken script short and in the user's language unless they ask for something longer.

Quick start

{baseDir}/scripts/speak.sh "你好世界" --filename hello.wav

Useful flags

{baseDir}/scripts/speak.sh "今天天气真好" --filename weather.wav
{baseDir}/scripts/speak.sh "Hello AIMA" --filename greeting.wav --voice default
{baseDir}/scripts/speak.sh "请用参考音色说这句话" --api tts --reference-audio /tmp/ref.wav --reference-text "参考文案"

Output

  • WAV audio file saved to workspace
  • MEDIA: line printed for OpenClaw auto-attachment

Notes

  • Model: auto-detected from ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json (override with AIMA_TTS_MODEL)
  • Voice: default (single voice)
  • API: speech (/v1/audio/speech) or tts (/v1/tts)
  • Output format: configurable with --response-format
  • Optional reference fields: --reference-audio, --reference-text
  • Runs on AIMA proxy at http://127.0.0.1:6188/v1
Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

aima-tts is a skill published in the GitHub repository Approaching-AI/AIMA (19 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 25 tokens to every session and 462 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
