Speak to the user out loud through their speakers. Use this whenever you finish a task and the user asked to be alerted, whenever you need the user's attention or input while they work on another screen, or whenever the user says things like "talk to me", "say it out loud", "alarm me", "let me know when you're done", "ping me", or "use your voice". Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Premium mode (Gemini TTS) gives an expressive, warm voice; native mode uses the OS's built-in synthesizer with no API key. Prefer this over terminal bells or plain beeps - the user chose this as their notification channel.
