podcast-generator

podcast-generator is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from staruhub/ClaudeSkills. It costs 140 tokens per session (1,053 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool that turns Chinese text into a two-person conversational podcast using Volcengine’s Podcast AI service. It creates audio files in formats such as MP3, but requires a Volcengine application ID and access key.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps turn articles, reports, or other Chinese text into podcast audio, choose speech speed and voices, select an audio format, and resume interrupted generation.
Why use it?
It removes the need to manually record or assemble a Chinese dialogue podcast from prepared text. It also supports continuing an interrupted generation instead of restarting from the beginning.

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-generator 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 13d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/generate_podcast.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.

What it actually says

播客生成器(火山引擎双人对话)

把中文文本变成双人对话播客音频,接口封装在 scripts/generate_podcast.py

验收标准(每次生成完成前自查)

  • 音频文件已落盘,把实际路径与文件大小回报用户
  • 输入文本 ≤25,000 字符(超长必须先与用户确认拆分方案,不能让模型静默截断)
  • 生成中断时使用了 retry_info 续传而不是从头重来
  • 参数选择有依据:分发用 mp3,后期加工用 pcm;教学内容语速 -20 左右
  • 凭证缺失时未硬试:告知用户去火山引擎控制台(speech/service/10028)获取

不做什么

  • 不写播客文稿——输入文本的质量是上游任务(文稿创作找写作类 skill)
  • 不做单人朗读、配音、音效制作
  • 不在输出里回显用户的 ACCESS_KEY

工作流程

1. 准备输入

必需:中文文本(≤25k 字符)+ APP_ID + ACCESS_KEY(无则告知获取方式后停止)。 可选:格式(默认 mp3)/ 采样率(默认 24000)/ 语速(-50~100,0=正常,100=2 倍速)/ 音色 / 开场音乐(默认关)。

最佳文本长度 500-3000 字——播客时长与听感的最优区间;一篇长文建议先摘要再生成。

2. 生成

python scripts/generate_podcast.py \
  --text "播客话题或内容文本" \
  --output "/path/to/output.mp3" \
  --app-id "$VOLC_APP_ID" --access-key "$VOLC_ACCESS_KEY" \
  --format mp3 --sample-rate 24000 --speech-rate 0

脚本会流式接收音频、按轮次显示进度、落盘后返回统计(大小/轮次数)。 Python 模块调用、自定义音色 ID、断点续传 retry_info 的写法见脚本内 docstring 与 references/api_reference.md

3. 交付

回报文件路径、大小、时长预估;失败时给出具体错误与下一步(见陷阱表)。

已知陷阱

陷阱 具体表现 应对
超长静默截断 >25k 字符时模型直接截断,播客缺尾 生成前校验长度,超长先与用户确认拆分或摘要
WebSocket 连不上 连接错误/超时 依次排查:凭证是否正确 → 网络 → 防火墙是否放行 WebSocket
中断后从头重试 长文本生成到一半断了,重跑烧双倍额度 从日志取 task_id 和 last_finished_round_id,用 retry_info 续传
输出路径不可写 生成完成但保存失败 生成前检查目录存在且可写、磁盘空间充足
文本结构差出烂稿 口水文本生成的对话生硬 输入用结构清晰的中文文本;效果差时先改文本再调参数

依赖与凭证

pip install websockets

凭证从火山引擎控制台获取(console.volcengine.com/speech/service/10028)。建议走环境变量,不要写进代码。

参考文档(按需加载)

  • references/api_reference.md — 完整参数规格、WebSocket 协议细节、事件类型、错误码;协议级调试时读
  • scripts/generate_podcast.py — CLI 与模块双接口,含自动重试与流式接收实现
Files

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.

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.
