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

ac-tools-voice-user 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 10d 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.

What it actually says

Voice User

Use the say tool for concise one-way spoken communication with the user.

When to use

  • You finished a meaningful task and want to alert the user.
  • You need the user's attention, confirmation, approval, choice, or missing input.
  • The user explicitly asks for spoken output.
  • Only in the top-level agent runtime. Subagents cannot use say.

How to use

  • Call the say tool with a short spoken message.
  • Prefer under 50 words when asking for attention or confirmation.
  • Use this shape when possible:
    • <project> - <what you need>
  • After the spoken alert, give the full explanation in the normal written response.

Keep spoken output short

Do not speak:

  • long explanations
  • code
  • secrets, tokens, or credentials
  • stack traces
  • large diffs or long file paths

Tool shape

{
  "text": "play - say extension updated; please reload.",
  "voice": "Samantha",
  "rate": 190
}

Only text is required. If voice or rate is omitted, the extension may use the saved defaults.

Notes

  • The extension may configure automatic voice as off, always, or long.
  • Even when automatic voice is off, use the say tool when the user explicitly wants spoken output.
  • Subagents do not have access to say. If a subagent finishes work or needs attention, it should report that in writing and let the parent agent decide whether to speak.
  • Long explanations stay in writing; voice is only the concise alert.

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.
