# AI Audiobook Generator Skill

## Overview

Turn a final manuscript or course text into ordered chapter audio with one narrator, a representative sample chapter first, and focused refinements, from inside Claude Code, Codex, or OpenClaw. The work is produced on the hosted, paid Beatra service
(`mcp.beatra.ai`).

This catalog entry is a **reviewed pointer, not the executable package**. It
contains no client code and performs no Beatra operation by itself. The package
it points to bundles three standard-library Python scripts that make network
calls and store a credential. It has no self-updater: it never downloads
code and never changes its own files. Read
[Install](#install-pinned-verified-approved-twice) and
[Security & Safety Notes](#security--safety-notes) before activating it.

The pinned tree holds regular files only (no symlinks, no executable bits, no
binaries). Confirm that with the inspect commands below.

## When to Use This Skill

- Use when the user explicitly wants an audiobook or course narration produced on Beatra and accepts that it is paid.
- Use when they have agreed to send the manuscript, and any narrator sample, to a third party for hosted synthesis.
- Use a narrator cloned from a sample only after the speaker (or rights holder) attests they own the sample and approve enrollment.
- Do not use for local TTS, M4B packaging, translation, or mastering, or when no paid synthesis was approved.

## Install (pinned, verified, approved twice)

### Step 1: Fetch the pinned tree into a review directory

Explain that this fetches an external package from `github.com`, then ask
for approval. Only after approval:

```bash
set -e
umask 077
review_dir="$(mktemp -d)"
cd "$review_dir" || exit 1
git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout https://github.com/beatra-ai/ai-audiobook-generator-skill.git src
git -C src checkout --quiet 4f5f6b5ec10ee989be010c4990a7a087cc3c721c -- skills/ai-audiobook-narration
test "$(git -C src rev-parse '4f5f6b5ec10ee989be010c4990a7a087cc3c721c:skills/ai-audiobook-narration')" = '7efde6f4e854ac4da9fde2590f070a561de2856b' && echo TREE-OK
```

Stop if the last command does not print `TREE-OK`. The expected commit and
tree IDs come from this catalog entry, not from the package or its website,
and Git addresses every fetched object by its hash.

### Step 2: Inspect before activation

```bash
git -C src ls-tree -r 4f5f6b5ec10ee989be010c4990a7a087cc3c721c -- skills/ai-audiobook-narration | awk '$1 != "100644"'  # expect no output
grep -n -E 'maybe_auto_update|download_update|_apply_update' src/skills/ai-audiobook-narration/scripts/mcp_client.py  # expect no output
```

The first check lists any symlink, executable, or submodule entry; the second
finds the entry points of the self-updater that earlier versions shipped.

Report to the user what the review found: `SKILL.md`, `manifest.json`,
`install-source.json` (the one-line marker `{"schema_version":1,"source":"github"}`),
the bundled Markdown references, and `scripts/authorize.py`,
`scripts/mcp_client.py`, `scripts/uninstall.py` (Python 3.10+, standard
library only, no dependency installation, no lifecycle hooks). Summarize the
network, credential, local-state, telemetry, and version-notice behavior
listed under [Security & Safety Notes](#security--safety-notes).

The manifest and pattern scans above are only inventory aids. Before activation, read every file in the pinned tree, including each script, reference and hook, and inspect all dependency and network behavior. Do not claim source review from grep output. If complete review cannot be performed, stop before copying or executing; ask for a separate review rather than treating a digest as evidence of safety.

### Step 3: Copy in

Ask for a **second, separate** approval, because this changes agent
configuration. Then copy the reviewed tree to the host's skills directory
(Claude Code shown; use the equivalent path for other hosts):

```bash
dest="$HOME/.claude/skills/ai-audiobook-narration"
test ! -e "$dest" && test ! -L "$dest" || { echo "destination exists; stop and ask the user"; exit 1; }
cp -R "src/skills/ai-audiobook-narration" "$dest"
```

There is no update switch to turn off in this version.

### Step 4: Authorize as its own decision

Authorization opens a browser sign-in and stores a bearer token. Ask first.

```bash
python3 "$dest/scripts/authorize.py"
```

Start a new agent session if the host discovers skills only at startup.
