Automated safety checks

scanned

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

    Makes no network calls.

    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.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned openai/skills at 49f948faa9.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill leverages the OpenAI Audio API to convert written text into spoken audio. It can generate realistic-sounding voices for various applications like narrations, voiceovers, and accessibility reads. The included command-line interface (CLI) allows for both individual speech generation and batch processing of multiple text inputs.

When to use it

  • Accessibility: Provide audible versions of written content for users with visual impairments or reading difficulties.
  • Voiceover Creation: Generate voiceovers for videos, presentations, or e-learning materials.
  • Audio Prompts: Create audio prompts for interactive applications or virtual assistants.
  • Batch Audio Generation: Quickly convert a list of text snippets into corresponding audio files for various purposes.

Key capabilities

  • Text-to-speech conversion using the OpenAI Audio API.
  • Bundled CLI tool (scripts/text_to_speech) for easy use.
  • Supports batch processing of multiple text inputs.
  • Generates realistic-sounding speech.

Example prompts

  • "Generate audio from this sentence: 'The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.'"
  • "Create a voiceover for this paragraph about climate change."
  • "Convert these five product descriptions into audio files and save them as .mp3s."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure you have an OpenAI API key configured to utilize this skill. The quality of the generated speech depends on the selected voice and parameters available through the OpenAI Audio API.
