 "title": "Give your AI agent a local text-to-speech tool through MCP",
 "page_title": "How to give your AI agent a local text-to-speech tool through MCP with VoiceStudio",
 "summary": "Expose the local API and MCP server so a coding or chat agent can generate speech on demand.",
 "who": "Developer building an agent workflow that needs to speak or produce voiceovers without a paid API",
 "problem": "Hosted speech APIs add cost, keys and data exposure to an agent pipeline.",
 "outcome": "An agent that calls your local VoiceStudio to produce audio files on request.",
 "steps": [
  "Install and run the app, and make sure a speech model is installed.",
  "Read docs/mcp.md and docs/speech-platform.md in the repo for the local API and MCP setup.",
  "Register the local MCP server in your agent's config using the details from those docs.",
  "Ask the agent to generate a short clip and confirm the audio file appears."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Set up debpalash/VoiceStudio's local MCP server for this agent by following docs/mcp.md in the repo, then generate a short spoken clip of <text>. Verify the audio file exists and plays.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Advanced",
 "time": "1 hour",
 "basis": "field",
 "caveat": "The README only points to the MCP and API docs, so exact config keys and ports must come from those docs, not from guesses.",
 "category": "Software & DevOps",
 "tags": [
  "Software & DevOps"
 ],
 "lang": "python",
 "requirements": [
  "macOS, Windows or Linux desktop (Intel Mac runs the UI only and needs a remote backend)",
  "NVIDIA GPU (CUDA) or Apple Silicon (Metal) recommended; CPU-only works but is slower and needs about 5 GB free disk",
  "Git, Node.js 22+, Bun and Rust/Cargo only if building from source",
  "Speech models are downloaded on demand through the app; no paid keys or accounts required"
