On-Demand Speech

Speak text aloud on demand, regardless of whether narrator is currently enabled.

Usage

If the user provides specific text to speak, pipe it directly:

echo "TEXT_TO_SPEAK" | bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/hooks/scripts/speak.sh" --force

If the user does not provide specific text, summarize the last action or response and speak that summary:

echo "SUMMARY_TEXT" | bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/hooks/scripts/speak.sh" --force

The --force flag bypasses the enabled check, allowing speech even when narrator is turned off.

Important

  • Always use --force for on-demand speak requests
  • Keep spoken text concise -- summarize if the text is very long
  • Ensure Kokoro is installed before attempting to speak (check with python3 -c "import kokoro")
