/install mac-tts
Description
Text-to-speech using macOS built-in `say` command. Use for voice notifications, audio alerts, reading text aloud, or announcing messages through Mac speakers. Supports multiple languages including Chinese (Mandarin), English, Japanese, etc.
Usage Guidance
Install this only if you want an agent to use your Mac speakers for spoken notifications. Review commands before running them if volume changes matter in your environment, and treat the skill as macOS-only.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: mac-tts
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle is benign. It uses standard macOS commands (`say` for text-to-speech and `osascript` for volume control) for their intended purposes. The `SKILL.md` provides clear, non-malicious instructions and examples for using these commands, without any evidence of prompt injection attempts, data exfiltration, malicious execution, or persistence mechanisms.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The stated purpose is macOS text-to-speech, and the artifact only documents `say` for speech plus `osascript` for checking or changing speaker volume.
Instruction Scope
The commands can make the computer speak aloud and can change output volume, but this is disclosed, local, and directly related to the skill's purpose.
Install Mechanism
The bundle contains only `SKILL.md` and no install script or executable code; however, registry metadata does not declare the macOS-only requirement or expected built-in commands.
Credentials
Local speaker output and volume adjustment are proportionate for a macOS TTS helper, and the artifact explicitly says it works only on macOS.
Persistence & Privilege
No credentials, background service, persistence, file access, network calls, privileged install behavior, or data exfiltration are present in the artifact.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install mac-tts - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/mac-tts - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
