podcast-generation

A tool that turns written material into a two-host conversational podcast, then produces spoken audio. It supports English and Chinese text.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to turn articles, reports, or documentation into a podcast script and MP3 audio.
Why use it?
It saves you from writing a dialogue and recording or assembling the episode yourself.

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

podcast-generation 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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/generate.py), 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.

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.

Podcast Generation Skill

Overview

This skill generates high-quality podcast audio from text content. The workflow includes creating a structured JSON script (conversational dialogue) and executing audio generation through text-to-speech synthesis.

Core Capabilities

  • Convert any text content (articles, reports, documentation) into podcast scripts
  • Generate natural two-host conversational dialogue (male and female hosts)
  • Synthesize speech audio using text-to-speech
  • Mix audio chunks into a final podcast MP3 file
  • Support both English and Chinese content

Workflow

Step 1: Understand Requirements

When a user requests podcast generation, identify:

  • Source content: The text/article/report to convert into a podcast
  • Language: English or Chinese (based on content)
  • Output location: Where to save the generated podcast
  • You don't need to check the folder under /mnt/user-data

Step 2: Create Structured Script JSON

Generate a structured JSON script file in /mnt/user-data/workspace/ with naming pattern: {descriptive-name}-script.json

The JSON structure:

{
  "locale": "en",
  "lines": [
    {"speaker": "male", "paragraph": "dialogue text"},
    {"speaker": "female", "paragraph": "dialogue text"}
  ]
}

Step 3: Execute Generation

Call the Python script:

python /mnt/skills/public/podcast-generation/scripts/generate.py \
  --script-file /mnt/user-data/workspace/script-file.json \
  --output-file /mnt/user-data/outputs/generated-podcast.mp3 \
  --transcript-file /mnt/user-data/outputs/generated-podcast-transcript.md

Parameters:

  • --script-file: Absolute path to JSON script file (required)
  • --output-file: Absolute path to output MP3 file (required)
  • --transcript-file: Absolute path to output transcript markdown file (optional, but recommended)

[!IMPORTANT]

  • Execute the script in one complete call. Do NOT split the workflow into separate steps.
  • The script handles all TTS API calls and audio generation internally.
  • Do NOT read the Python file, just call it with the parameters.
  • Always include --transcript-file to generate a readable transcript for the user.

What ships with it

2 files 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.
