 "title": "Give your Hermes agent a spoken voice",
 "page_title": "How to give your Hermes agent a spoken voice with Fish Audio Hermes",
 "summary": "Install the Fish Audio plugin so voice replies and read-aloud use Fish Audio speech.",
 "who": "A Hermes Agent user who wants replies, read-aloud and voice notes spoken aloud in the CLI or a messaging app.",
 "problem": "Hermes needs a speech provider and a saved key before it can speak, and the setup has several steps.",
 "outcome": "The agent speaks through Fish Audio, and the setup check confirms that one test synthesis works.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `hermes plugins install fish-audio --enable` on the machine that runs Hermes.",
  "Run `hermes fish login` and paste your key from https://fish.audio/app/api-keys.",
  "Answer the provider prompt, or pass `--yes` if you want Fish Audio to replace another speech provider.",
  "Run `hermes fish doctor` to make one short billed synthesis, or `hermes fish doctor --no-synth` to skip it. (inferred, check the README)",
  "Ask the agent to read a short reply aloud and listen to the result."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the repo 100yenadmin/fish-audio-hermes, install the Fish Audio plugin for Hermes Agent on <target machine> and run the setup check with `hermes fish doctor --no-synth`. Expected output: the plugin is enabled and the status check reports no errors. Verify that `hermes fish status` shows Fish Audio as the speech provider.",
