Change Narrator Speech Speed

Step 1: Determine Scope

Check if the user said "locally", "for this directory", "for this project", or similar. If so, changes apply to the local config file in the current working directory.

  • Global (default): ~/.claude-code-narrator/config
  • Local: <cwd>/.claude-code-narrator/config

Step 2: Get the Speed Value

If the user specifies a speed value (e.g., "set speed to 1.5"), use that value. Valid range is 0.5 to 2.0. Default is 1.1.

If the user says "faster" or "speed up", read the current speed and increase it by 0.2 (capped at 2.0). If the user says "slower" or "slow down", read the current speed and decrease it by 0.2 (minimum 0.5).

If the value is outside the valid range, tell the user the valid range and ask them to pick a value.

If no specific value or direction is given, read the current speed from the appropriate config file (local if it exists and has a speed key, otherwise global) and show it to the user. Then ask what speed they would like using AskUserQuestion with these options:

  • 0.7 — Slow, deliberate
  • 1.0 — Natural pace
  • 1.1 — Default
  • 1.5 — Brisk

The user can also type a custom value.

Step 3: Set the Speed

Global mode (default):

Read ~/.claude-code-narrator/config and use the Edit tool to change the speed= line to the new value.

Local mode:

Read <cwd>/.claude-code-narrator/config. If the file exists, use the Edit tool to change or add the speed= line. If the file does not exist, create the <cwd>/.claude-code-narrator/ directory if needed, then create the config file with the Write tool containing just speed=<value>.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT use sed to edit state files — use the Read and Edit tools instead.

Step 4: Confirm

Tell the user the new speed value, then speak a test sentence so they can hear the difference:

echo "This is how I sound at the new speed." | bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/hooks/scripts/speak.sh" --force
