Automated safety checks

scanned 1 Oct 2026

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Only contacts known or declared hosts: api.openai.com.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

When to use it

Accessibility: Provide an auditory alternative for users with visual impairments or reading difficulties.
Audio Summaries: Generate spoken versions of lengthy articles or reports to allow for hands-free consumption.
Voice Assistance: Enable AI agents to read out notifications, reminders, or instructions.
Content Creation: Create audio content from written scripts for podcasts or other media formats.

Key capabilities

Text-to-speech conversion
Audio generation
Integration with AI agents

Example prompts

"Read this article aloud: [paste article text]"
“Can you speak the following paragraph? [paste paragraph]”
"Generate audio from this document."

Tips & gotchas

The quality of the generated speech depends on the clarity and structure of the input text. Ensure proper punctuation and formatting for optimal results.
