SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

It helps you get voice features working by guiding you through microphone permissions, push-to-talk (PTT) activation key configuration, and optional ElevenLabs text-to-speech setup directly inside the conversation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Microphone Permission Setup: Verifies whether microphone permission is granted and, if not, opens macOS System Settings to the correct privacy pane so voice input can function.
  • Push-to-Talk (PTT) Configuration: Lets you choose an activation key (with common Mac key-conflict warnings) and applies it via the voice configuration tool.
  • ElevenLabs TTS Optional Integration: Supports high-quality TTS by securely collecting credentials and selecting/configuring an ElevenLabs voice when you want enhanced spoken output.
  • Troubleshooting Decision Trees: Handles common issues like “PTT isn’t working,” “recording but no text/transcription failure,” and “settings didn’t apply” with targeted recovery steps.

Quick Start

Ask to set up voice features by saying: "Help me set up voice: enable microphone permission and configure push-to-talk for my preferred key."
