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

elevenlabs 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 16d 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.

ElevenLabs Audio Generation

Requires ELEVENLABS_API_KEY in .env.

Text-to-Speech

from elevenlabs.client import ElevenLabs
from elevenlabs import save, VoiceSettings
import os

client = ElevenLabs(api_key=os.getenv("ELEVENLABS_API_KEY"))

audio = client.text_to_speech.convert(
    text="Welcome to my video!",
    voice_id="JBFqnCBsd6RMkjVDRZzb",
    model_id="eleven_multilingual_v2",
    voice_settings=VoiceSettings(
        stability=0.5,
        similarity_boost=0.75,
        style=0.5,
        speed=1.0
    )
)
save(audio, "voiceover.mp3")

Models

Model Quality SSML Support Notes
eleven_multilingual_v2 Highest consistency None Stable, production-ready, 29 languages. Toolkit default; supports style + speed
eleven_v4 Most expressive None (audio tags, IPA) Newest (released 2026-09-28), 90+ languages, best clone accuracy. Stability + similarity only, no style/speed
eleven_flash_v2_5 Good <break>, <phoneme> Fastest, cheapest; supports pause/pronunciation tags
eleven_v3 Expressive None Previous generation — prefer v4

Choose: multilingual_v2 for reliability and speed/style control, v4 for maximum expressiveness and cloned voices (test a few takes), flash for SSML control.

Deprecated: eleven_turbo_v2_5 → use eleven_flash_v2_5 (same quality, lower latency; see deprecated models). The toolkit still accepts --model eleven_turbo_v2_5: it prints a one-line warning and sends eleven_flash_v2_5.

Eleven v4

Released 2026-09-28 (changelog, model page). The toolkit calls v4 through the Text to Dialogue API with one input (the narrator voice), as ElevenLabs recommends for content creation and long-form audio:

from elevenlabs import DialogueInput

audio = client.text_to_dialogue.convert(
    inputs=[DialogueInput(text="[warm] Welcome to my video!", voice_id="JBFqnCBsd6RMkjVDRZzb")],
    model_id="eleven_v4",
    settings={"stability": 0.5, "similarity": 0.75},  # the only two settings v4 takes
)
save(audio, "voiceover.mp3")

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.
