  • Input indicates Voice Wake/voice recognition (for example

What it does

Voice Wake Say is an agent skill from sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills. Speak responses aloud on macOS using the built-in say command when user input indicates Voice Wake/voice recognition (for example, messages starting with "User talked via voice recognition on <device").

Its SKILL.md is about 470 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with macOS. The repository describes itself as: Top OpenClaw skills, with the most popular and useful ones.

When your agent uses it

  • Input indicates Voice Wake/voice recognition (for example
  • Messages starting with User talked via voice recognition on <device)

Example prompts

  • “User talked via voice recognition on <device”
  • “/voice-wake-say”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b80cde2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Voice Wake Say loads about 469 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 55 tokens; SKILL.md has 232 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~55
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~469

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 232 words (~469 tokens).

“Use macOS say to read the assistant's response out loud whenever the conversation came from Voice Wake/voice recognition. Do not use the tts tool (it calls cloud providers).”
