English Pronunciation Audio
CRITICAL Rules
- This skill generates AUDIO files only. NEVER output text-based pronunciation guides (e.g. "vuh-LOR-unt", IPA symbols).
- When user asks "X怎么读" (how to pronounce the sentence they sent): Pass ONLY the exact sentence X the user gave you. Example: user says "What would you like to order for lunch today?怎么读" → exec with
--text "What would you like to order for lunch today". Do NOT pass your reply or any extra text.
- When sending coaching reply: Pass the full draft (你说/➡️/💬/📚/🎯) so the script extracts translation + examples + question.
- Generate at most one audio file per reply.
- Skip Chinese lines (lines starting with
提示:, 你说:, 📚, 💬).
- Skip
You said: lines. Only read More natural: and Reusable phrase: lines.
- Skip vocabulary definitions (
• word — 释义) and phonetic lines (IPA, "pronounced", "vuh-LOR-unt").
- If the user ends the session, skip audio for the final reply.
Supported Reply Shapes
Spoken content is extracted from:
➡️ line (translation)①②③ lines (example sentences)- Line after
🎯 我会这样继续问你： (follow-up question)
Translation: / You can say: / Now you try: / More natural: / Reusable phrase: (legacy labels)
Script
- Use
scripts/tts_openrouter.py.
- Pass the full draft reply text with
--text. The script extracts spoken English automatically.
- Config:
assets/tts-config.json.
- If script returns
no_spoken_text or too_long, send text reply only.
- If script fails, do not block the text reply. Retry at most once.
Reply Shaping
- Keep extracted English under 300 characters total.
- Keep Chinese on separate
提示: lines.
- One template per reply for deterministic extraction.
Debugging
--extract-only: inspect extracted English as JSON.--dry-run: generate audio but skip Telegram upload.- To verify what audio will be sent:
python3 scripts/tts_openrouter.py --text "your text" --extract-only
