User asks how to pronounce an English word or project/product name ("how to pronounce X", "pronounce X", "X 怎么读", "X 怎么发音", "读一下 X"). Generate audio via the `say-it` CLI so the user actually HEARS the word — three times by default — instead of only writing IPA/syllable hints. The CLI consults a community-maintained pronunciation dictionary (kubectl → "koob-control", GIF → "jif", JSON → "jay-son", ...) and feeds an English-like respelling to the system TTS engine…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# pronounce-word — speak the word out loud

**Purpose.** When the user asks how to pronounce an English word — and especially a project, product, or programmer-jargon name (`kubectl`, `nginx`, `Pydantic`, `LaTeX`, `JSON`, ...) — don't just respond in text. Play the audio so they can hear the *community* reading, then add a short text caption with the source.

## Trigger patterns

Auto-invoke ONLY when the user's message matches a **single-word or short-name** pronunciation request:

- English: `how to pronounce <X>`, `how do you pronounce <X>`, `pronounce <X>`, `how do you say <X>`, `what does <X> sound like`
- Chinese: `<X> 怎么读`, `<X> 怎么念`, `<X> 怎么发音`, `读一下 <X>`, `念一下 <X>`

`<X>` MUST be a single token: a word, project name, product name, acronym, or identifier — the kind of thing a developer would actually type into `say-it <X>`. The dictionary is keyed on single tokens, so multi-word input is spoken raw (not looked up); for a two-part name pick the head token (`say-it postgres`, not `say-it postgres database`).

**Do NOT trigger this skill when:**

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add anzy-renlab-ai/pronounce/pronounce-word@sha256:cb8fc4f2e5d6e535

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261107.70ade42, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
