This brings ElevenLabs text-to-speech to Claude with the same ease as macOS's built-in say command. You get voice responses in chat when users ask for them, plus fine control over delivery with audio tags like [whispers], [excited], and [short pause] for the v3 model. It handles the usual pain points: respelling for pronunciation, normalization flags for numbers and URLs, language hints for better output. The setup is clean if you're on Mac (brew install), needs an ElevenLabs API key, and defaults to their expressive v3 model. Honestly most useful when you want Claude to actually speak responses instead of just suggesting what to say, especially for character voices or accessibility scenarios.

Files

sag

Use sag for ElevenLabs TTS with local playback.

API key (required)

  • ELEVENLABS_API_KEY (preferred)
  • SAG_API_KEY also supported by the CLI
  • Key file via --api-key-file, ELEVENLABS_API_KEY_FILE, or SAG_API_KEY_FILE

Quick start

  • sag "Hello there"
  • sag speak -v "Roger" "Hello"
  • sag voices
  • sag prompting (model-specific tips)

Model notes

  • Default: eleven_v3 (expressive)
  • Stable: eleven_multilingual_v2
  • Fast: eleven_flash_v2_5

Pronunciation + delivery rules

  • First fix: respell (e.g. "key-note"), add hyphens, adjust casing.
  • Numbers/units/URLs: --normalize auto (or off if it harms names).
  • Language bias: --lang en|de|fr|... to guide normalization.
  • v3: SSML <break> not supported; use [pause], [short pause], [long pause].
  • v2/v2.5: SSML <break time="1.5s" /> supported; <phoneme> not exposed in sag.

v3 audio tags (put at the entrance of a line)

  • [whispers], [shouts], [sings]
  • [laughs], [starts laughing], [sighs], [exhales]
  • [sarcastic], [curious], [excited], [crying], [mischievously]
  • Example: sag "[whispers] keep this quiet. [short pause] ok?"
