Edge-TTS Speech Generator

Turns text into natural-sounding audio files using Microsoft Edge's neural TTS via `uvx edge-tts`.

Image & VideoBeginner★ 151⑂ 20AI score 9/10Last updated: Jul 15, 2026

What it does

  • Converts any text into an MP3 with the uvx edge-tts command.
  • Lets you pick the voice (English, Chinese, French and more), and tune rate, volume and pitch.
  • Can emit timed subtitles alongside the audio via --write-subtitles.
  • Ships a curated voice table plus --list-voices to discover every available voice.

Who it's for

  • Anyone who'd rather listen to summaries and docs while driving, cooking or exercising.
  • Creators who need quick voiceovers for shorts, videos or podcasts.
  • Users with accessibility needs or screen fatigue.
  • Language learners wanting native-sounding pronunciation samples.

Examples

  1. "tts this meeting summary" → generates an MP3 narrated by en-US-AriaNeural.
  2. "Read this Chinese sentence with XiaoxiaoNeural, 20% faster" → --voice zh-CN-XiaoxiaoNeural --rate=+20%.
  3. Producing a captioned clip: add --write-subtitles to get audio and subtitle cues in one pass.

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the skills/edge-tts folder from the GitHub repo aahl/skills into my ~/.claude/skills/edge-tts/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/aahl/skills.git /tmp/aahl-skills && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/aahl-skills/skills/edge-tts ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Install uv (the Python tool runner): curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh (see uv docs for Windows).
  2. Verify it works: run uvx edge-tts --list-voices — this requires internet access.
  3. Clone the skill repo: git clone https://github.com/aahl/skills.git
  4. Copy the skill into place: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r skills/skills/edge-tts ~/.claude/skills/
  5. Restart Claude Code and try a prompt like "tts this paragraph".
  6. Tell Claude where to save the MP3 if you want to keep it, since the examples write to a temp directory.
