sag
`sag` is a command-line tool that integrates ElevenLabs text-to-speech with local audio playback, supporting multiple voice models and SSML-style audio tags for expressive synthesis. Use it when you need to generate natural-sounding speech with character control, such as creating voice responses with specific emotional delivery or pronunciation adjustments, particularly with the v3 model's audio tags like whispers, shouts, and laughter.

# sag Use `sag` for ElevenLabs TTS with local playback. API key (required) - `ELEVENLABS_API_KEY` (preferred) - `SAG_API_KEY` also supported by the CLI Quick start - `sag "Hello there"` - `sag speak -v "Roger" "Hello"` - `sag voices` - `sag prompting` (model-specific tips) Model notes - Default: `eleven_v3` (expressive) - Stable: `eleven_multilingual_v2` - Fast: `eleven_flash_v2_5` Pronunciation + delivery rules - First fix: respell (e.g. "key-note"), add hyphens, adjust casing. - Numbers/units/URLs: `--normalize auto` (or `off` if it harms names). - Language bias: `--lang en|de|fr|...` to guide normalization. - v3: SSML `<break>` not supported; use `[pause]`, `[short pause]`, `[long pause]`. - v2/v2.5: SSML `<break time="1.5s" />` supported; `<phoneme>` not exposed in `sag`. v3 audio tags (put at the entrance of a line) - `[whispers]`, `[shouts]`, `[sings]` - `[laughs]`, `[starts laughing]`, `[sighs]`, `[exhales]` - `[sarcastic]`, `[curious]`, `[excited]`, `[crying]`, `[mischievously]` - Example: `sag "[whispers] keep this quiet. [short pause] ok?"` Voice defaults - `ELEVENLABS_VOICE_ID` or `SAG_VOICE_ID` Confirm voice + speaker before long output. ## Chat voice responses When the user asks for a "voice" reply (e.g., "crazy scientist voice", "explain in voice"), generate audio and send it: ```bash # Generate audio file sag -v Clawd -o /tmp/voice-reply.mp3 "Your message here" # Then include in reply: # MEDIA:/tmp/voice-reply.mp3 ``` Voice character tips: - Crazy scientist: Use `[excited]` tags, dramatic pauses `[short pause]`, vary intensity - Calm: Use `[whispers]` or slower pacing - Dramatic: Use `[sings]` or `[shouts]` sparingly Default voice for Clawd: `lj2rcrvANS3gaWWnczSX` (or just `-v Clawd`)
Set up and use 1Password CLI (op). Use when installing the CLI, enabling desktop app integration, signing in (single or multi-account), or reading/injecting/running secrets via op.
Manage Apple Notes via the memo CLI on macOS (create, view, search, edit).
Manage Apple Reminders via remindctl CLI (list, add, complete, delete).
Generate dark-themed SVG diagrams of software systems and cloud infrastructure as standalone HTML files with inline SVG graphics. Semantic component colors (cyan=frontend, emerald=backend, violet=database, amber=cloud/AWS, rose=security, orange=message bus), JetBrains Mono font, grid background. Best suited for software architecture, cloud/VPC topology, microservice maps, service-mesh diagrams, database + API layer diagrams, security groups, message buses — anything that fits a tech-infra deck with a dark aesthetic. If a more specialized diagramming skill exists for the subject (scientific, educational, hand-drawn, animated, etc.), prefer that — otherwise this skill can also serve as a general-purpose SVG diagram fallback. Based on Cocoon AI's architecture-diagram-generator (MIT).
Search and retrieve academic papers from arXiv using their free REST API. No API key needed. Search by keyword, author, category, or ID. Combine with web_extract or the ocr-and-documents skill to read full paper content.
Generate ASCII art using pyfiglet (571 fonts), cowsay, boxes, toilet, image-to-ascii, remote APIs (asciified, ascii.co.uk), and LLM fallback. No API keys required.
Production pipeline for ASCII art video — any format. Converts video/audio/images/generative input into colored ASCII character video output (MP4, GIF, image sequence). Covers: video-to-ASCII conversion, audio-reactive music visualizers, generative ASCII art animations, hybrid video+audio reactive, text/lyrics overlays, real-time terminal rendering. Use when users request: ASCII video, text art video, terminal-style video, character art animation, retro text visualization, audio visualizer in ASCII, converting video to ASCII art, matrix-style effects, or any animated ASCII output.
PyTorch library for audio generation including text-to-music (MusicGen) and text-to-sound (AudioGen). Use when you need to generate music from text descriptions, create sound effects, or perform melody-conditioned music generation.
