Mac TTS
Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk
Overview
This is a simple instruction-only macOS text-to-speech skill; it uses expected local commands, with minor notes about audible output, volume changes, and under-declared macOS requirements.
This skill appears safe and purpose-aligned for macOS text-to-speech. Before installing or using it, note that it can make your computer speak out loud and the examples include commands to unmute or change system volume. It should be treated as macOS-only despite the registry metadata not enforcing that restriction.
VirusTotal
66/66 vendors flagged this skill as clean.
Risk analysis
Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.
The agent may speak through the Mac speakers or adjust volume if the user follows or authorizes these instructions.
The skill documents local commands that can change the user's system volume before speaking. This fits the text-to-speech purpose, but it is still a user-impacting local action.
osascript -e "set volume output volume 70"
Use the skill only when audible output is desired, and review any volume-changing command before running it.
The skill may fail or behave unexpectedly on non-macOS systems, but the artifacts do not show hidden installation or code execution.
The metadata does not declare the macOS-only environment or the built-in commands used by the skill, while SKILL.md says it works only on macOS.
OS restriction: none; Required binaries (all must exist): none
Treat this as macOS-only and consider declaring macOS plus the expected built-in commands in the skill metadata.
