ElevenLabs Voice Personas v2.1

Comprehensive voice synthesis toolkit using ElevenLabs API.

🚀 First Run - Setup Wizard

When you first use this skill (no config.json exists), run the interactive setup wizard:

python3 scripts/setup.py

The wizard will guide you through:

2. Default Voice - Choose from popular voices (Rachel, Adam, Bella, etc.)
3. Language - Set your preferred language (32 supported)
4. Audio Quality - Standard or high quality output
5. Cost Tracking - Enable usage and cost monitoring

🔒 Privacy: Your API key is stored locally in config.json only. It never leaves your machine and is automatically excluded from git via .gitignore.

To reconfigure at any time, simply run the setup wizard again.

🤖 OpenClaw TTS Integration

Using with OpenClaw's Built-in TTS

OpenClaw has built-in TTS support that can use ElevenLabs. Configure in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:

{
  "tts": {
    "enabled": true,
    "provider": "elevenlabs",
    "elevenlabs": {
      "apiKey": "your-api-key-here",
      "voice": "rachel",
      "model": "eleven_multilingual_v2"
    }
  }
}

Triggering TTS in Chat

In OpenClaw conversations:

• Use /tts on to enable automatic TTS
• Use the tts tool directly for one-off speech
• Request "read this aloud" or "speak this"

Using Skill Scripts from OpenClaw

# OpenClaw can run these scripts directly
exec python3 /path/to/skills/elevenlabs-voices/scripts/tts.py --text "Hello" --voice rachel

⚙️ Configuration

The scripts look for API key in this order:

1. ELEVEN_API_KEY or ELEVENLABS_API_KEY environment variable
2. OpenClaw config (~/.openclaw/openclaw.json → tts.elevenlabs.apiKey)
3. Skill-local .env file

Create.env file:

echo 'ELEVEN_API_KEY=your-key-here' > .env

🎛️ Voice Settings

Each voice has tuned settings for optimal output:

📝 Triggers

• "use {voice_name} voice"
• "speak as {persona}"
• "list voices"
• "voice settings"
• "generate sound effect"
• "design a voice"
