wjs-voicedrop-reading-aloud

wjs-voicedrop-reading-aloud is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jianshuo/claude-skills. It costs 90 tokens per session (2,087 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow that turns written text into an expressive audiobook-style MP3 narration. It can take plain text, files, URLs, or VoiceDrop articles and prepares the reading script before speech synthesis.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to clean and rewrite text for listening, assign voices to different kinds of passages, add controlled performance directions, synthesize speech, and produce an MP3 file.
Why use it?
It avoids reading markdown symbols, links, tables, or formatting marks aloud. It also separates narration, quotations, and asides with different voices or delivery instructions where appropriate.

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

wjs-voicedrop-reading-aloud 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 12d 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.

wjs-voicedrop-reading-aloud

文字 → 有声书 mp3。不是照字面念,而是先编排:不同性质的内容换不同声音,关键转折处加语音指令,然后用火山引擎豆包 seed-tts-2.0 合成。

合成工具:~/code/volcano-tts/tts.py(先 source ~/code/.env)。

铁律

  1. 绝不把带【】/[ ] 标注的文本直接喂裸 API —— 裸 API 会把标注原样念出来(实测实锤)。永远走 tts.py,它把标注切段转成 context_texts 语音指令。
  2. 只能用 2.0 音色(_uranus_bigtts 后缀) —— moon/mars/tob 音色在 seed-tts-2.0 资源下报错 resource ID is mismatched
  3. 合成前把编排好的朗读脚本给用户看一眼(除非用户说直接出)——编排是再创作,声音分配和指令值得确认。headless/自动化场景跳过此步。

工作流

1. 取内容并认真通读

  • 纯文本/文件:直接读。
  • URL:WebFetch;SPA 页面(如 docs.volcengine.com)用 browse skill 渲染后取正文。
  • VoiceDrop 文章:voicedrop MCP 的 read_article

通读时标记出:正文叙述 / 直接引用(引号、blockquote)/ 大白话吐槽与内心 OS / 数据、列表、表格 / 标题与小节。

2. 编排重写成朗读脚本

这是核心步骤,是重写不是转录:

  • 去掉一切视觉残留:markdown 符号、链接、图片说明、脚注编号。
  • 表格、列表、数据改写成口语句子(「三个原因:第一…」)。
  • 标题不逐字念,化进过渡句,或用停顿+换气带过。
  • 太书面的长句改口语,但保留作者的用词风格。
  • 按内容性质分配音色(见音色表):正文一个主声贯穿;引用换引用声;吐槽/大白话换插话声。声音切换是给听众的「格式信号」,等价于视觉上的引用块。
  • 不要频繁换声:一般 2~3 个声音封顶,切换只发生在内容性质真正变化处。

3. 加语音指令(克制)

在句前加 [心理活动、细腻表情、肢体动作等描述],如 [放慢,一字一顿,点出要害]

  • 只在需要的地方加:情绪转折、节奏变化、重音、引用的口吻模仿。平铺直叙的段落一个不加,靠全局指令兜底。
  • 经验密度:每 3~5 句最多一处;一段平静的叙述可以整段没有。
  • 每处标注就是一次切段(一次 API 调用+拼接点),切太碎会让语流变散。
  • 标注写成对朗读者说的表演提示(心理活动/表情/动作皆可),不要写成对听众的说明。
  • 指令要戏剧化、情绪化才有效(实测):模型对情绪/音色类指令跟随很强(哭腔、耳语、亢奋大喊、像法官宣判、+50% 时长级别的变化),对含蓄舞台提示(「语气一沉」「带一丝惋惜」)和机械精确指令(「停顿一秒」「放慢一倍」)跟随很弱。写法上宁可夸张:「请把声音压到接近耳语,凑近话筒,像说破一个秘密」远强于「压低声音」。

4. 朗读脚本格式(tts.py --script)

# 注释行
@voice narrator zh_male_yuanboxiaoshu_uranus_bigtts
@voice quote zh_male_yizhipiannan_uranus_bigtts
@voice casual zh_male_fanjuanqingnian_uranus_bigtts

@narrator
[语气平静从容,像老朋友聊天]先讲一个真事。……他公开断言:

@quote
[带着当年的笃定与体面]股价已经站上了一个永久的高原。

@narrator
几天后,市场开始了最惨烈的下跌。

@casual
[像随口吐槽]这人判断力真差。

5. 合成与验收

source ~/code/.env
python3 ~/code/volcano-tts/tts.py -f script.txt --script -o out.mp3 \
  -i "这是一段有声书朗读,自然口语化,像讲故事,不要播音腔"
  • -i 全局指令必带,定整体基调;--speech-rate--subtitle(字级时间戳)按需。
  • 验收:afinfo out.mp3 看时长是否与字数匹配(中文约 4~5 字/秒);如首次改动过工具或有疑虑,用 ~/.claude/skills/wjs-transcribing-audio/scripts/volc_asr_stream.py 抽查一段,确认标注没被念出来。
  • 用 SendUserFile 把 mp3 发给用户。
