AI Text-to-Speech (IndexTTS2)

Clone a speaker from a reference audio, then synthesize speech from text with IndexTTS2.

Rules

When this skill applies, read and follow skill-dependency-manager — run scripts as documented, install missing tools into .dependency/.

Run tts.py at .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py through the index-tts manifest entry (.dependency/index-tts/.venv/). Never use host python, py, python3, or any interpreter outside .dependency/.
Do not hand-write IndexTTS Python snippets or uv run webui.py for synthesis — use the bundled script.
IndexTTS requires uv for install (pip/conda are unsupported upstream). Python must be >=3.10,<3.12 (use python-3.11).
populated: false for index-tts (or missing models) is not a reason to skip. Install / download first, set populated: true, retry the same command.
Never overwrite sources. Pass the user's real voice path and text; write only to -o / --output.

Setup (first run)

From project root.

1. Python 3.11 + uv

Ensure python-3.11 and uv are populated under .dependency/ (see skill-dependency-manager). Register:

"python-3.11": {
  "populated": true,
  "bin": ".dependency/python-3.11/python.exe"
},
"uv": {
  "populated": true,
  "bin": ".dependency/uv/uv.exe"
}

Use python / uv (no .exe) on Unix.

2. Clone IndexTTS

git clone https://github.com/index-tts/index-tts.git .dependency/index-tts
cd .dependency/index-tts
git lfs install
git lfs pull

3. Install deps with uv (required)

# from .dependency/index-tts
# Windows: skip deepspeed extras if install fails
.dependency/uv/uv.exe sync --extra webui

Slow PyPI (China mirrors):

.dependency/uv/uv.exe sync --extra webui --default-index "https://mirrors.aliyun.com/pypi/simple"

CUDA Toolkit 12.8+ is needed for GPU. CPU works but is slow.

4. Download IndexTTS-2 checkpoints

cd .dependency/index-tts
.dependency/uv/uv.exe tool install "huggingface-hub[cli,hf_xet]"
hf download IndexTeam/IndexTTS-2 --local-dir=checkpoints

Or ModelScope:

.dependency/uv/uv.exe tool install "modelscope"
modelscope download --model IndexTeam/IndexTTS-2 --local_dir checkpoints

If HuggingFace is slow: HF_ENDPOINT=https://hf-mirror.com (Unix) / $env:HF_ENDPOINT="https://hf-mirror.com" (PowerShell).

5. Register manifest

"index-tts": {
  "populated": true,
  "bin": ".dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe"
}

Use .dependency/index-tts/.venv/bin/python on Unix. Confirm checkpoints/config.yaml exists before synthesizing.

Quick Start

Voice reference + text → WAV (default output: <voice-dir>/ai-text-to-speech/<voice-stem>.wav):

.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text "Hello, welcome to this world."
# → audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/ref.wav

Explicit output path:

.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text "Hello, this is a test." \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/hello.wav

Directory (writes <voice-stem>.wav inside, e.g. audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/ref.wav):

.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py --voice audio/voice/ref.wav --text "Hello, this is a test." --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech

Long script from a UTF-8 text file:

.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text-file script/lines/intro.txt \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/intro.wav

FP16 (faster, less VRAM):

.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text "Testing half-precision inference." \
  --fp16

Emotion control (optional)

Mode	Flags	Notes
Emotion reference audio	`--emotion-audio path.wav`	Separate clip for emotion; timbre still from `--voice`
Emotion weight	`--emotion-weight 0.6`	Maps to `emo_alpha` (`0.0`–`1.0`, default `1.0`)
Emotion from text	`--emotion-from-text`	Infer emotion from synthesis text; prefer `--emotion-weight` ≈ `0.6`
Emotion description	`--emotion-text "..."`	Natural-language emotion; implies text emotion mode
Emotion vector	`--emotion-vector 0,0,0.8,0,0,0,0,0`	8 floats: happy, angry, sad, afraid, disgusted, melancholic, surprised, calm

# Emotion reference audio
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --emotion-audio audio/voice/emo_sad.wav \
  --emotion-weight 0.9 \
  --text "The inn has gone rotten and started auctioning off rooms." \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/sad_line.wav

# Emotion description text
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --emotion-text "afraid, tense" \
  --emotion-weight 0.6 \
  --text "Hide quickly! He is coming!" \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/afraid_line.wav

Do not combine --emotion-audio, --emotion-vector, and --emotion-text / --emotion-from-text in conflicting ways — pick one emotion source.

Defaults

Option	Default	Notes
Output	`<voice-dir>/ai-text-to-speech/<voice-stem>.wav`	`--output` file uses that name; `--output` directory uses the voice file's stem
Model	`.dependency/index-tts/checkpoints`	IndexTTS-2
`--fp16`	off	Enable on GPU when VRAM is tight
`--emotion-weight`	`1.0`	Lower (~0.6) for text emotion modes
Overwrite	off	Pass `--force` to replace an existing output

Agent workflow

Confirm inputs — need a clear reference voice WAV/MP3 and the text (or --text-file). Ask if either is missing.
Use the user's real paths — do not copy voice files into the repo unless asked.
Trial first — synthesize one short line, play/inspect before long scripts.
Reference audio tips — clean, single-speaker, little noise; a few seconds of clear speech works best.
Missing install — follow Setup; register index-tts in manifest.json; retry the same command.
GPU — prefer CUDA + --fp16 for speed; CPU is acceptable for short tests only.
Revert — delete files under ai-text-to-speech/; sources are never modified.

Troubleshooting

Issue	Fix
`index-tts` not populated	Clone + `uv sync` + download checkpoints; update manifest
`checkpoints/config.yaml` missing	Re-run `hf download IndexTeam/IndexTTS-2 --local-dir=checkpoints`
CUDA / torch errors	Install CUDA 12.8+; or run on CPU (slow)
OOM / VRAM	Pass `--fp16`; shorten text; close other GPU apps
Slow HuggingFace	Set `HF_ENDPOINT=https://hf-mirror.com`; or use ModelScope
`uv sync` / DeepSpeed fail on Windows	Use `uv sync --extra webui` without deepspeed
Unnatural emotion	Lower `--emotion-weight` to ~0.6; try a clearer `--emotion-audio`

# AI Text-to-Speech (IndexTTS2)

Clone a speaker from a **reference audio**, then synthesize speech from **text** with **[IndexTTS2](https://github.com/index-tts/index-tts)**.

## Rules

When this skill applies, read and follow [skill-dependency-manager](../skill-dependency-manager.md) — run scripts as documented, install missing tools into `.dependency/`.

- Run `tts.py` at `.ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py` through the **`index-tts` manifest entry** (`.dependency/index-tts/.venv/`). Never use host `python`, `py`, `python3`, or any interpreter outside `.dependency/`.
- Do not hand-write IndexTTS Python snippets or `uv run webui.py` for synthesis — use the bundled script.
- IndexTTS **requires `uv`** for install (`pip`/`conda` are unsupported upstream). Python must be **`>=3.10,<3.12`** (use **`python-3.11`**).
- `populated: false` for `index-tts` (or missing models) is not a reason to skip. Install / download first, set `populated: true`, retry the same command.
- **Never overwrite sources.** Pass the user's real voice path and text; write only to `-o` / `--output`.

## Setup (first run)

From project root.

### 1. Python 3.11 + uv

Ensure `python-3.11` and `uv` are populated under `.dependency/` (see skill-dependency-manager). Register:

```json
"python-3.11": {
  "populated": true,
  "bin": ".dependency/python-3.11/python.exe"
},
"uv": {
  "populated": true,
  "bin": ".dependency/uv/uv.exe"
}
```

Use `python` / `uv` (no `.exe`) on Unix.

### 2. Clone IndexTTS

```bash
git clone https://github.com/index-tts/index-tts.git .dependency/index-tts
cd .dependency/index-tts
git lfs install
git lfs pull
```

### 3. Install deps with uv (required)

```bash
# from .dependency/index-tts
# Windows: skip deepspeed extras if install fails
.dependency/uv/uv.exe sync --extra webui
```

Slow PyPI (China mirrors):

```bash
.dependency/uv/uv.exe sync --extra webui --default-index "https://mirrors.aliyun.com/pypi/simple"
```

CUDA Toolkit **12.8+** is needed for GPU. CPU works but is slow.

### 4. Download IndexTTS-2 checkpoints

```bash
cd .dependency/index-tts
.dependency/uv/uv.exe tool install "huggingface-hub[cli,hf_xet]"
hf download IndexTeam/IndexTTS-2 --local-dir=checkpoints
```

Or ModelScope:

```bash
.dependency/uv/uv.exe tool install "modelscope"
modelscope download --model IndexTeam/IndexTTS-2 --local_dir checkpoints
```

If HuggingFace is slow: `HF_ENDPOINT=https://hf-mirror.com` (Unix) / `$env:HF_ENDPOINT="https://hf-mirror.com"` (PowerShell).

### 5. Register manifest

```json
"index-tts": {
  "populated": true,
  "bin": ".dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe"
}
```

Use `.dependency/index-tts/.venv/bin/python` on Unix. Confirm `checkpoints/config.yaml` exists before synthesizing.

## Quick Start

**Voice reference + text → WAV** (default output: `<voice-dir>/ai-text-to-speech/<voice-stem>.wav`):

```bash
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text "Hello, welcome to this world."
# → audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/ref.wav
```

Explicit output path:

```bash
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text "Hello, this is a test." \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/hello.wav
```

Directory (writes `<voice-stem>.wav` inside, e.g. `audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/ref.wav`):

```bash
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py --voice audio/voice/ref.wav --text "Hello, this is a test." --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech
```

Long script from a UTF-8 text file:

```bash
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text-file script/lines/intro.txt \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/intro.wav
```

FP16 (faster, less VRAM):

```bash
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text "Testing half-precision inference." \
  --fp16
```

## Emotion control (optional)

| Emotion vector | `--emotion-vector 0,0,0.8,0,0,0,0,0` | 8 floats: happy, angry, sad, afraid, disgusted, melancholic, surprised, calm |

```bash
# Emotion reference audio
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --emotion-audio audio/voice/emo_sad.wav \
  --emotion-weight 0.9 \
  --text "The inn has gone rotten and started auctioning off rooms." \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/sad_line.wav

# Emotion description text
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --emotion-text "afraid, tense" \
  --emotion-weight 0.6 \
  --text "Hide quickly! He is coming!" \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/afraid_line.wav
```

Do not combine `--emotion-audio`, `--emotion-vector`, and `--emotion-text` / `--emotion-from-text` in conflicting ways — pick one emotion source.

## Defaults

Source documentation, not instructions for this website. Review permissions before running any commands.

AI Text-to-Speech (IndexTTS2)

Clone a speaker from a reference audio, then synthesize speech from text with IndexTTS2.

Rules

When this skill applies, read and follow skill-dependency-manager — run scripts as documented, install missing tools into .dependency/.

Run tts.py at .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py through the index-tts manifest entry (.dependency/index-tts/.venv/). Never use host python, py, python3, or any interpreter outside .dependency/.
Do not hand-write IndexTTS Python snippets or uv run webui.py for synthesis — use the bundled script.
IndexTTS requires uv for install (pip/conda are unsupported upstream). Python must be >=3.10,<3.12 (use python-3.11).
populated: false for index-tts (or missing models) is not a reason to skip. Install / download first, set populated: true, retry the same command.
Never overwrite sources. Pass the user's real voice path and text; write only to -o / --output.

Setup (first run)

From project root.

1. Python 3.11 + uv

Ensure python-3.11 and uv are populated under .dependency/ (see skill-dependency-manager). Register:

"python-3.11": {
  "populated": true,
  "bin": ".dependency/python-3.11/python.exe"
},
"uv": {
  "populated": true,
  "bin": ".dependency/uv/uv.exe"
}

Use python / uv (no .exe) on Unix.

2. Clone IndexTTS

git clone https://github.com/index-tts/index-tts.git .dependency/index-tts
cd .dependency/index-tts
git lfs install
git lfs pull

3. Install deps with uv (required)

# from .dependency/index-tts
# Windows: skip deepspeed extras if install fails
.dependency/uv/uv.exe sync --extra webui

Slow PyPI (China mirrors):

.dependency/uv/uv.exe sync --extra webui --default-index "https://mirrors.aliyun.com/pypi/simple"

CUDA Toolkit 12.8+ is needed for GPU. CPU works but is slow.

4. Download IndexTTS-2 checkpoints

cd .dependency/index-tts
.dependency/uv/uv.exe tool install "huggingface-hub[cli,hf_xet]"
hf download IndexTeam/IndexTTS-2 --local-dir=checkpoints

Or ModelScope:

.dependency/uv/uv.exe tool install "modelscope"
modelscope download --model IndexTeam/IndexTTS-2 --local_dir checkpoints

If HuggingFace is slow: HF_ENDPOINT=https://hf-mirror.com (Unix) / $env:HF_ENDPOINT="https://hf-mirror.com" (PowerShell).

5. Register manifest

"index-tts": {
  "populated": true,
  "bin": ".dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe"
}

Use .dependency/index-tts/.venv/bin/python on Unix. Confirm checkpoints/config.yaml exists before synthesizing.

Quick Start

Voice reference + text → WAV (default output: <voice-dir>/ai-text-to-speech/<voice-stem>.wav):

.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text "Hello, welcome to this world."
# → audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/ref.wav

Explicit output path:

.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text "Hello, this is a test." \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/hello.wav

Directory (writes <voice-stem>.wav inside, e.g. audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/ref.wav):

.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py --voice audio/voice/ref.wav --text "Hello, this is a test." --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech

Long script from a UTF-8 text file:

.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text-file script/lines/intro.txt \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/intro.wav

FP16 (faster, less VRAM):

.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text "Testing half-precision inference." \
  --fp16

Emotion control (optional)

Mode	Flags	Notes
Emotion reference audio	`--emotion-audio path.wav`	Separate clip for emotion; timbre still from `--voice`
Emotion weight	`--emotion-weight 0.6`	Maps to `emo_alpha` (`0.0`–`1.0`, default `1.0`)
Emotion from text	`--emotion-from-text`	Infer emotion from synthesis text; prefer `--emotion-weight` ≈ `0.6`
Emotion description	`--emotion-text "..."`	Natural-language emotion; implies text emotion mode
Emotion vector	`--emotion-vector 0,0,0.8,0,0,0,0,0`	8 floats: happy, angry, sad, afraid, disgusted, melancholic, surprised, calm

# Emotion reference audio
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --emotion-audio audio/voice/emo_sad.wav \
  --emotion-weight 0.9 \
  --text "The inn has gone rotten and started auctioning off rooms." \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/sad_line.wav

# Emotion description text
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --emotion-text "afraid, tense" \
  --emotion-weight 0.6 \
  --text "Hide quickly! He is coming!" \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/afraid_line.wav

Do not combine --emotion-audio, --emotion-vector, and --emotion-text / --emotion-from-text in conflicting ways — pick one emotion source.

Defaults

Option	Default	Notes
Output	`<voice-dir>/ai-text-to-speech/<voice-stem>.wav`	`--output` file uses that name; `--output` directory uses the voice file's stem
Model	`.dependency/index-tts/checkpoints`	IndexTTS-2
`--fp16`	off	Enable on GPU when VRAM is tight
`--emotion-weight`	`1.0`	Lower (~0.6) for text emotion modes
Overwrite	off	Pass `--force` to replace an existing output

Agent workflow

Confirm inputs — need a clear reference voice WAV/MP3 and the text (or --text-file). Ask if either is missing.
Use the user's real paths — do not copy voice files into the repo unless asked.
Trial first — synthesize one short line, play/inspect before long scripts.
Reference audio tips — clean, single-speaker, little noise; a few seconds of clear speech works best.
Missing install — follow Setup; register index-tts in manifest.json; retry the same command.
GPU — prefer CUDA + --fp16 for speed; CPU is acceptable for short tests only.
Revert — delete files under ai-text-to-speech/; sources are never modified.

Troubleshooting

Issue	Fix
`index-tts` not populated	Clone + `uv sync` + download checkpoints; update manifest
`checkpoints/config.yaml` missing	Re-run `hf download IndexTeam/IndexTTS-2 --local-dir=checkpoints`
CUDA / torch errors	Install CUDA 12.8+; or run on CPU (slow)
OOM / VRAM	Pass `--fp16`; shorten text; close other GPU apps
Slow HuggingFace	Set `HF_ENDPOINT=https://hf-mirror.com`; or use ModelScope
`uv sync` / DeepSpeed fail on Windows	Use `uv sync --extra webui` without deepspeed
Unnatural emotion	Lower `--emotion-weight` to ~0.6; try a clearer `--emotion-audio`

# AI Text-to-Speech (IndexTTS2)

Clone a speaker from a **reference audio**, then synthesize speech from **text** with **[IndexTTS2](https://github.com/index-tts/index-tts)**.

## Rules

When this skill applies, read and follow [skill-dependency-manager](../skill-dependency-manager.md) — run scripts as documented, install missing tools into `.dependency/`.

- Run `tts.py` at `.ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py` through the **`index-tts` manifest entry** (`.dependency/index-tts/.venv/`). Never use host `python`, `py`, `python3`, or any interpreter outside `.dependency/`.
- Do not hand-write IndexTTS Python snippets or `uv run webui.py` for synthesis — use the bundled script.
- IndexTTS **requires `uv`** for install (`pip`/`conda` are unsupported upstream). Python must be **`>=3.10,<3.12`** (use **`python-3.11`**).
- `populated: false` for `index-tts` (or missing models) is not a reason to skip. Install / download first, set `populated: true`, retry the same command.
- **Never overwrite sources.** Pass the user's real voice path and text; write only to `-o` / `--output`.

## Setup (first run)

From project root.

### 1. Python 3.11 + uv

Ensure `python-3.11` and `uv` are populated under `.dependency/` (see skill-dependency-manager). Register:

```json
"python-3.11": {
  "populated": true,
  "bin": ".dependency/python-3.11/python.exe"
},
"uv": {
  "populated": true,
  "bin": ".dependency/uv/uv.exe"
}
```

Use `python` / `uv` (no `.exe`) on Unix.

### 2. Clone IndexTTS

```bash
git clone https://github.com/index-tts/index-tts.git .dependency/index-tts
cd .dependency/index-tts
git lfs install
git lfs pull
```

### 3. Install deps with uv (required)

```bash
# from .dependency/index-tts
# Windows: skip deepspeed extras if install fails
.dependency/uv/uv.exe sync --extra webui
```

Slow PyPI (China mirrors):

```bash
.dependency/uv/uv.exe sync --extra webui --default-index "https://mirrors.aliyun.com/pypi/simple"
```

CUDA Toolkit **12.8+** is needed for GPU. CPU works but is slow.

### 4. Download IndexTTS-2 checkpoints

```bash
cd .dependency/index-tts
.dependency/uv/uv.exe tool install "huggingface-hub[cli,hf_xet]"
hf download IndexTeam/IndexTTS-2 --local-dir=checkpoints
```

Or ModelScope:

```bash
.dependency/uv/uv.exe tool install "modelscope"
modelscope download --model IndexTeam/IndexTTS-2 --local_dir checkpoints
```

If HuggingFace is slow: `HF_ENDPOINT=https://hf-mirror.com` (Unix) / `$env:HF_ENDPOINT="https://hf-mirror.com"` (PowerShell).

### 5. Register manifest

```json
"index-tts": {
  "populated": true,
  "bin": ".dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe"
}
```

Use `.dependency/index-tts/.venv/bin/python` on Unix. Confirm `checkpoints/config.yaml` exists before synthesizing.

## Quick Start

**Voice reference + text → WAV** (default output: `<voice-dir>/ai-text-to-speech/<voice-stem>.wav`):

```bash
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text "Hello, welcome to this world."
# → audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/ref.wav
```

Explicit output path:

```bash
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text "Hello, this is a test." \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/hello.wav
```

Directory (writes `<voice-stem>.wav` inside, e.g. `audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/ref.wav`):

```bash
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py --voice audio/voice/ref.wav --text "Hello, this is a test." --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech
```

Long script from a UTF-8 text file:

```bash
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text-file script/lines/intro.txt \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/intro.wav
```

FP16 (faster, less VRAM):

```bash
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --text "Testing half-precision inference." \
  --fp16
```

## Emotion control (optional)

| Mode | Flags | Notes |
|------|-------|-------|
| Emotion reference audio | `--emotion-audio path.wav` | Separate clip for emotion; timbre still from `--voice` |
| Emotion weight | `--emotion-weight 0.6` | Maps to `emo_alpha` (`0.0`–`1.0`, default `1.0`) |
| Emotion from text | `--emotion-from-text` | Infer emotion from synthesis text; prefer `--emotion-weight` ≈ `0.6` |
| Emotion description | `--emotion-text "..."` | Natural-language emotion; implies text emotion mode |
| Emotion vector | `--emotion-vector 0,0,0.8,0,0,0,0,0` | 8 floats: happy, angry, sad, afraid, disgusted, melancholic, surprised, calm |

```bash
# Emotion reference audio
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --emotion-audio audio/voice/emo_sad.wav \
  --emotion-weight 0.9 \
  --text "The inn has gone rotten and started auctioning off rooms." \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/sad_line.wav

# Emotion description text
.dependency/index-tts/.venv/Scripts/python.exe .ai/ai-text-to-speech/tts.py \
  --voice audio/voice/ref.wav \
  --emotion-text "afraid, tense" \
  --emotion-weight 0.6 \
  --text "Hide quickly! He is coming!" \
  --output audio/voice/ai-text-to-speech/afraid_line.wav
```

Do not combine `--emotion-audio`, `--emotion-vector`, and `--emotion-text` / `--emotion-from-text` in conflicting ways — pick one emotion source.

## Defaults

| Option | Default | Notes |
|--------|---------|-------|
| Output | `<voice-dir>/ai-text-to-speech/<voice-stem>.wav` | `--output` file uses that name; `--output` directory uses the voice file's stem |
| Model | `.dependency/index-tts/checkpoints` | IndexTTS-2 |
| `--fp16` | off | Enable on GPU when VRAM is tight |
| `--emotion-weight` | `1.0` | Lower (~0.6) for text emotion modes |
| Overwrite | off | Pass `--force` to replace an existing output |

## Agent workflow

1. **Confirm inputs** — need a clear reference voice WAV/MP3 and the text (or `--text-file`). Ask if either is missing.
2. **Use the user's real paths** — do not copy voice files into the repo unless asked.
3. **Trial first** — synthesize one short line, play/inspect before long scripts.
4. **Reference audio tips** — clean, single-speaker, little noise; a few seconds of clear speech works best.
5. **Missing install** — follow **Setup**; register `index-tts` in `manifest.json`; retry the same command.
6. **GPU** — prefer CUDA + `--fp16` for speed; CPU is acceptable for short tests only.
7. **Revert** — delete files under `ai-text-to-speech/`; sources are never modified.

## Troubleshooting

| Issue | Fix |
|-------|-----|
| `index-tts` not populated | Clone + `uv sync` + download checkpoints; update manifest |
| `checkpoints/config.yaml` missing | Re-run `hf download IndexTeam/IndexTTS-2 --local-dir=checkpoints` |
| CUDA / torch errors | Install CUDA 12.8+; or run on CPU (slow) |
| OOM / VRAM | Pass `--fp16`; shorten text; close other GPU apps |
| Slow HuggingFace | Set `HF_ENDPOINT=https://hf-mirror.com`; or use ModelScope |
| `uv sync` / DeepSpeed fail on Windows | Use `uv sync --extra webui` without deepspeed |
| Unnatural emotion | Lower `--emotion-weight` to ~0.6; try a clearer `--emotion-audio` |

Listed tools are metadata hints, not tested compatibility. Agent prompts are suggested handoffs.

Start with one small task

1Read the source. Confirm the input, expected output, dependencies and permissions.
2Ask your agent for a plan. Approve setup and any costs before running a small isolated test.
3Check the output and changed files. Report only what actually ran; keep the source revision for reproduction.

Check the source for dependencies, API keys and third-party costs. A public repository does not mean every service is free.
