audio-cog

What This Skill Does

The Audio-Cog skill, powered by CellCog, serves as a comprehensive AI audio generation engine for the OpenClaw ecosystem. It bridges the gap between text-based instructions and high-quality, professional audio output. Whether you need natural-sounding voiceovers, emotional narration, or background sound design, this skill leverages sophisticated models to transform your creative concepts into auditory reality. It is designed for seamless integration within OpenClaw agents, allowing them to handle complex media production tasks without manual oversight.

Installation

To integrate audio capabilities into your agent, you must first ensure the foundational CellCog framework is active. Follow these steps:

1. Install the core dependency: clawhub install cellcog
2. Install the specific skill: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/chenghaifeng08-creator/audio-cog-automaton

Ensure you have configured your environment variables as specified in the CellCog documentation, as this skill relies on that underlying infrastructure for API connectivity and SDK initialization.

Use Cases

• Corporate & Commercial: Generate clear, authoritative voiceovers for marketing videos, product demos, or IVR phone systems using voices like Cedar or Marin.
• Educational Content: Produce e-learning modules or audio-guides that benefit from the articulate and paced delivery of Sage or Echo.
• Creative Media: Create long-form storytelling or audiobook chapters with the rhythmic, flowing qualities of Ballad or Verse.
• Dynamic Advertising: Leverage the energetic and vibrant tone of Coral to create compelling advertisements that demand listener attention.

Example Prompts

1. "Generate a 30-second professional voiceover for a product launch video using the cedar voice, ensuring a warm and trustworthy tone."
2. "Create an engaging narration for a mystery short story. Use the ballad voice to bring out the rhythmic and expressive qualities of the text."
3. "Produce a calm, soothing instructional voiceover for a meditation guide using the shimmer voice, ensuring the pace is slow and deliberate."

Tips & Limitations

• Voice Selection: Always match the voice characteristic to your target audience. For instance, high-energy ads require different vocal profiles than sensitive wellness content.
• Task Labeling: Use distinct task_label names in your requests to organize your audio history effectively within the agent console.
• Asynchronous Execution: Audio generation can be compute-intensive. Always rely on the notify_session_key parameter to receive completion alerts rather than attempting to poll the server, which can lead to connection timeouts.
• Limitations: Currently, this skill produces monophonic audio streams optimized for voice-centric tasks. While background music is supported, it is optimized for accompaniment rather than complex multi-track music production.
