TalkToMePy TTS (Deprecated)

Deprecation Status

• Status: Deprecated
• Scope: Legacy-only, backward compatibility
• Successor: Use the speech workflow successor in gaelic-ghost/a11y-skills for new automation and active maintenance.
• Guidance: Do not choose this skill for new setups unless you explicitly need this older TalkToMePy-specific behavior.

Use this skill when the user asks to hear text spoken aloud from the local machine.

Post-Invocation Resolution Rules

Apply these rules before synthesis to make speech-source selection deterministic in ambiguous contexts.

Invocation detection

• Treat the skill as invoked when the user clearly calls it, including skill chip/link invocation, $talktomepy-tts, or equivalent direct imperative phrasing.
• Ignore incidental mention in unrelated prose.
