Tired of juggling multiple audio APIs? This skill gives you one-command access to TTS, music generation, sound effects, and voice cloning. Use when you want to generate any audio without managing multiple API keys.

🎙️ VideoAgent Audio Studio Use when: User asks to generate speech, narrate text, create a voice over, compose music, or produce a sound effect. VideoAgent Audio Studio is a smart audio dispatcher. It analyzes your request and routes it to the best available model — ElevenLabs for speech and music, fal.ai for fast SFX — and returns a ready to use audio URL. Quick Reference Request Type Best Model Latency Narrate text / Voice over elevenlabs tts v3 ~3s Low latency TTS (real time) elevenlabs tts turbo <1s Background music cassetteai music ~15s Sound effect elevenlabs sfx ~5s Clone a voice from audio elevenlabs voice clone ~10s How to Use 1. Start the AudioMind server (once per session) This starts the ElevenLabs MCP server on port 8124. The skill uses it for all audio generation. 2. Route the request Analyze the user's request and call the appropriate tool via the MCP server: Text to Speech (TTS) When user asks to "narrate", "read aloud", "say", or "create a voice over": Music Generation When user asks to "compose", "create background music", or "make a soundtrack": Sound Effect (SFX) When user asks for a specific sound (e.g., "a door creaking", "rain on a window"): Voice Cloning When user provides an audio sample and wants to clone the voice: Example Conversations User: "Voice this text for me: Welcome to our product launch" 🎙️ Voiceover done! [Listen here](audio url) User: "Generate 60 seconds of relaxing background music for a podcast" 🎵 Background music ready! [Listen here](audio url) User: "Generate a sci fi style door opening sound effect" Setup Required Set ELEVENLABS API KEY in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json : Get your key at [elevenlabs.io/app/settings/api keys](https://elevenlabs.io/app/settings/api keys). Optional (for fal.ai music & SFX models) Get your key at [fal.ai/dashboard/keys](https://fal.ai/dashboard/keys). Self Hosting the Proxy The cli.js connects to a hosted proxy by default. If you want full control — or need to serve users in regions where vercel.app is blocked — you can deploy your own instance from the proxy/ directory. Quick Deploy (Vercel) Environment Variables Set these in your Vercel project (Dashboard → Settings → Environment Variables): Variable Required For Where to Get ELEVENLABS API KEY TTS, SFX, Voice Clone [elevenlabs.io/app/settings/api keys](https://elevenlabs.io/app/settings/api keys) FAL KEY Music generation [fal.ai/dashboard/keys](https://fal.ai/dashboard/keys) VALID PRO KEYS (Optional) Restrict access Comma separated list of allowed client keys Point cli.js to Your Proxy Or set it in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json : Custom Domain (Recommended) If your users are in mainland China, bind a custom domain in Vercel Dashboard → Settings → Domains to avoid DNS issues with vercel.app .
