Holiday Homework Voice Pack

Turn a written holiday homework list into one holiday homework voice clip per labeled cue. This homework assignment voice studio records each homework instruction audio and assignment list voice from the list the teacher already wrote, then delivers 8 to 20 homework voice pack files. Use it for holiday homework clip packs that keep one assignment on each clip.

Turn a written holiday homework list into one spoken clip per labeled cue. Deliver 8 to 20 reads. Cover chinese, math, and english first.

Scope and adjacent routes

Use this Skill when a teacher needs labeled holiday-homework instruction clips from the assignment list they already wrote.

Route generic narration to voiceover-narration-studio. Route full-course lesson narration to course-narration-studio.

Read only the supplied assignment list. Do not invent a homework item, an answer, a score, or a grade.

Collect the assignment list

Hard inputs are:

• the holiday homework assignment list the teacher already wrote;
• a pronunciation table whenever names, book titles, or coined words appear;
• how many clips the pack should contain, or permission to use the default of 10;
• likeness and voice rights when a cloned teacher voice will appear.

Reuse already-known language and a frozen voice_id. Ask only for a missing hard input. A count outside 8 to 20 is still doable: confirm that pack size and its live cost.

Do not invent a homework item, an answer, a score, or a grade. File access is not consent.

If names exist and the pronunciation table is empty, stop and collect the readings.

Plan the free slot list

Write a labeled holiday-homework voice list before any paid clone or speech. Default ten slots unless the teacher names another count in 8 to 20: chinese, math, english, reading, writing, worksheet, recitation, project, review, and submit. Each slot records the spoken line from the written assignment list and whether it uses a catalog voice or a clone.

That list is the free visible result. Planning is not approval.

Safe defaults:

• one beatra.speech.synthesize call per slot;
• model: "auto" only when every live speech card supports the language;
• format: "mp3"; speed: 1.0;
• one brand voice for the whole pack.

Keep each submitted input at or below 50,000 characters. Split on sentence boundaries. Write short spoken sentences from the list.

Inspect an authorized clone sample when clone is requested. For a local file, upload only through the bundled client after inspection (scripts/mcp_client.py / beatra.assets.upload). Keep the returned artifact id. Never pass a local path to beatra.voices.clone or beatra.speech.synthesize.

Confirm clone, then speech

Clone and speech are separate paid stages. Each stage gets its own six-field card and its own opaque client_request_id.

If the teacher wants a cloned teacher voice, inspect an authorized sample, read the live voice_clone card, and wait on the clone card before beatra.voices.clone. A found file is not clone consent. Show the clone card and wait:

1. Work — one authorized voice sample (beatra.voices.clone).
2. Credits — the live voice_clone price just read. Do not reuse a remembered number.
3. Count — one paid clone call for this sample.
4. Identity — one new opaque client_request_id.
5. If we stop here — the labeled slot list remains usable.
6. If the balance is insufficient — relay the official message and its top-up URL exactly. Translate the prose; keep the URL. Do not retry until the teacher says they have topped up.

Before speech, call beatra.models.list for text_to_speech:

json

{"capability": "text_to_speech"}

Use beatra.voices.list when a catalog voice still needs a choice. Never put a display name in voice. Show the speech card and wait:

1. Work — one spoken homework-instruction cue per named slot (beatra.speech.synthesize).
2. Credits — the live text_to_speech price just read, times the slot count. Do not reuse a remembered number.
3. Count — one paid speech call per slot.
4. Identity — one new opaque client_request_id per slot.
5. If we stop here — the labeled slot list remains usable.
6. If the balance is insufficient — relay the official message and its top-up URL exactly. Translate the prose; keep the URL. Do not retry until the teacher says they have topped up.

Submit each speech slot once through bundled scripts/mcp_client.py. Poll beatra.tasks.get. Read actual audio MIME, duration, and size, and billing.net_charged_credits. Do not promise the prepaid estimate is the final charge. A script preview is not the audio review.

Review, deliver, and recover

Review that every clip uses the same voice and that names match the pronunciation table and the written assignment list. Report only what the host can actually hear. Do not score the homework.

After a returned task_id, poll that task. If the create response is lost, search with beatra.tasks.list and verify with beatra.tasks.get before replay. Reuse an ID only with byte-identical arguments. A changed line, voice, or speed is a new card and a new ID. Cancel only when the teacher asks.

Execution

Invoke every remote Beatra operation only through this package's bundled scripts/mcp_client.py. Put the MCP tool name after call and send one JSON object on standard input.

bash

python3 scripts/mcp_client.py call beatra.models.list

json

{"capability": "text_to_speech"}

text

printf '%s' '{"input":"<the written line for this slot>","voice":"voice_...","format":"mp3","client_request_id":"opaque-homework-speech-01"}' | python3 scripts/mcp_client.py call beatra.speech.synthesize

Do not configure or call a host Beatra Connector, and do not use REST/OpenAPI as a fallback.

Account balance

When the user asks how many credits remain or whether a live estimate fits, call beatra.wallet.get. When they ask what was charged, call beatra.wallet.ledger. Both are read-only. Do not invent an account-balance or top-up tool. Do not make wallet.get a required step before every paid submit.

When a model card comes back carrying a top_up block, relay its tiers as the card lists them and in that order. Do not rank them, do not talk one down, and do not pick one for the user. Which tier suits them is their call, made on the wallet page with the whole list in front of them. Never quote a tier from memory.

References by task

• For slot lists, payloads, and recovery, read Holiday homework voice workflow.
• For authorization and the non-billable registration step, read installation and authentication and installation registration.
• For shared task, billing, and connection details, read tasks and results, billing, errors, and recovery, and Bundled MCP Client diagnostics.
• For update guarantees and controls, read automatic updates and safety. For removal, read uninstall and disconnect.

Runtime and safe automatic updates

The bundled client silently checks for a newer release at most once every 24 hours per installation. When a newer version is available, it installs automatically without separate confirmation. It downloads only from the fixed official Beatra discovery and immutable CDN paths for this package, channel, and locale, verifies discovery data, archive, manifest, and every packaged file, and replaces only package-owned files.

Update checks, downloads, verification, replacement, rollback, and recovery fail open: the current installation remains usable and the original command continues. An update failure never authorizes retrying a paid clone or speech request. The setting persists for this installation. See automatic updates and safety.
