Open Skill that gives an assistant a mouth in the local SelectSay desktop TTS app.
The SelectSay app and cloud stay private. This Skill is public.
npx skills add selectsay/selectsay-speakThen:
- Install and open SelectSay.
- Settings → Access → copy the
mcp.jsonsnippet into your host (Cursor and similar). - Ask the assistant to speak. It must pass
context. It must not read the written reply aloud.
npx skills add copies the Skill into hosts the skills CLI detects, including:
- Cursor
- Claude Code / Claude Desktop
- Codex
- GitHub Copilot
- Gemini CLI
- OpenCode
- Cline
- Windsurf
- Zed
- Amp
If a host is not listed, run the same command anyway; the CLI skips unknown agents.
The Skill cannot speak without SelectSay. Download the app from https://selectsay.com, open it, then wire MCP from Settings → Access.
compatibility: selectsay-mcp-2 must match the app mcp_api. If they differ, re-run the install command or upgrade SelectSay before calling speak.
