change-voice

change-voice is a skill for Claude Code from novoads/agent-skills. It costs 217 tokens per session (6,566 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A video or audio editing workflow that replaces the spoken voice with a selected voice from the Novoads catalogue while preserving the original timing and picture.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to re-voice finished videos or audio files through the Novoads API, then put the returned speech back over the unchanged video locally.
Why use it?
It changes who is speaking without rebuilding the video or breaking lip-sync. It also guides choices the service cannot make for you, such as which voice and which audio sections to replace.

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

change-voice 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (scripts/assemble-voice-change.py, scripts/check-speech.py, scripts/match-voice.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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 454 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Change Voice

One video in. The same video out, with the speech re-performed by a voice you chose.

The picture never moves. The timing never moves. What changes is who is speaking, and the entire craft of this skill is in three decisions the endpoint cannot make for you: which voice, which spans of audio to replace, and whether the result is actually good. The HTTP call in the middle is one request.

Every HTTP mechanic here belongs to the pack, not to this skill. Auth, strict bodies, status codes, rate limits and error envelopes are written out once in skills/novoads-api/SKILL.md and its reference.md. Read those for mechanics; this file names the endpoint and the fields that matter to a re-voice.

Before anything: this runs on a Novoads account

  • Base URL: https://api.novoads.ai/v1 (host overridable with NOVOADS_BASE_URL — host only, you append /v1).
  • Auth: Authorization: Bearer $NOVOADS_API_KEY, read from .env at the repo root.
  • Check: ./scripts/check-novoads-env.sh. If it is missing, run ./scripts/setup.sh.
  • ffmpeg on your machine. Hard dependency, not optional: the local speech check, the casting measurement and the whole assembly are local ffmpeg work. ffmpeg -version before you start.
  • Never print API keys, commit .env, or paste a key into MASTER_CONTEXT.md.

REST key required. A Novoads MCP connector is not a substitute. If NOVOADS_API_KEY is missing or still the placeholder, stop before any generation work and tell the user: "Before continuing, create an API key at https://novoads.ai/dashboard/settings?tab=api and paste it into .env." That holds even when mcp__novoads__* tools are connected and authenticated in the session. Never call mcp__novoads__* tools from this repo's workflows: they are a different surface with different behavior, including the units they quote costs in. Repo installs verify with ./scripts/check-novoads-env.sh; a solo install checks NOVOADS_API_KEY in the environment.

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.
