Characteristic Voice

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: general-misc  ·  Last updated:
Use this skill whenever the user wants speech to sound more human, companion-like, or emotionally expressive. Triggers include: any mention of 'say like', 'talk like', 'speak like', 'companion voice', 'comfort me', 'cheer me up', 'sound more human', 'good night voice', 'good morning voice', or requests to add fillers, emotion, or personality to generated speech. Also use when the user wants to mimic a specific character's voice, apply speaking style presets (goodnight, morning, comfort, celebration, chatting), tune emotional parameters like warmth or tenderness, or make TTS output feel like a real person talking. If the user asks for a 'voice message', 'companion audio', 'character voice', or wants speech that sighs, laughs, hesitates, or sounds genuinely warm, use this skill. Do NOT use for plain text-to-speech without personality, music generation, sound effects, or general coding tasks unrelated to expressive speech.

From the source SKILL.md

Make your AI agent sound like a real companion — one who sighs, laughs, hesitates, and speaks with genuine feeling.
