## Suggested prompts
### New install

```text
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
```
### Upgrade existing

```text
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.

## Documentation

### say

Use say for on-device text-to-speech on macOS.

### Siri Natural Voices (recommended)

Siri voices are the best macOS TTS voices but cannot be selected via -v. Instead, run say without -v — it uses the system default voice. Switch languages via defaults write:

# Switch to German
defaults write com.apple.speech.voice.prefs SystemTTSLanguage -string "de"
say "Hallo, wie geht's?" -o output_de.aiff

# Switch to Chinese (Mandarin)
defaults write com.apple.speech.voice.prefs SystemTTSLanguage -string "cmn"
say "你好，世界" -o output_zh.aiff

No process restart needed — the next say invocation picks up the new language immediately.

### Prerequisites

Download the desired Siri voices first in System Settings > Accessibility > Spoken Content and set them as the system voice for each language.

Check which voices are currently configured:

defaults read com.apple.Accessibility SpokenContentDefaultVoiceSelectionsByLanguage

### Fallback: select voice via -v

For non-Siri voices, use -v directly:

say -v 'Tingting (Enhanced)' "你好，世界"
say -v '?'  # list all installed voices (Siri voices not listed)

### Output to file

say -o output.aiff "Hello world"
ffmpeg -y -i output.aiff -ar 22050 -ac 1 output.wav  # convert to WAV

### Options

-v <voice> — Select a non-Siri voice
-r <rate> — Speaking rate in words per minute (e.g. -r 150)
-o <file> — Save to AIFF file instead of playing aloud

### Notes

say adds natural pauses at punctuation — no manual sentence splitting needed
AIFF is the native output format; convert with ffmpeg for WAV/MP3
For batch generation: set language once, generate all clips, then switch — minimizes defaults write calls
