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

spoken-response 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 8d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 67 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Spoken Response

A spoken response reads the assistant response aloud without rewriting it.

Mode

Choose the mode from the user's request:

  • Single — create audio for the current response. This is the default.
  • Previous — create audio for the most recent assistant response and return a brief confirmation.
  • Thread — create audio for the current and later responses until disabled or the thread ends.

Respond

  1. Select the response:

    • For Single and Thread, finalize the current response.
    • For Previous, use the most recent assistant response.
  2. Set RESPONSE_AS_TEXT to a read-aloud copy:

    • Fidelity: preserve wording and order; do not summarize or rephrase.
    • Non-prose: translate formatting and read tables naturally. Explain code or visuals when useful; otherwise briefly introduce them ("Here is the code" or "See the diagram below") and continue.
  3. Set LABEL to SR. When a thread title is already available, use <title> - SR.

  4. Create the recording with the configured voice, speed, and format:

    agent-voice speak "$RESPONSE_AS_TEXT" --label "$LABEL"
    

    For long responses, create a unique file in the system temporary directory. The operating system handles cleanup.

    agent-voice speak --label "$LABEL" < "$RESPONSE_AS_TEXT_FILE"
    
  5. Place the audio above the written response or Previous confirmation using default.md immediately after speak returns a receipt with generation.state: "started"

For speaker playback, add -p and continue after the result reports playback.state: "started". Add --play-after SECONDS to schedule it without blocking. On synthesis failure, send the written response with a brief failure note.

Setup

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.
