Set up Kobi spoken updates for Claude Code. Chooses Kokoro (on this Mac, the default) or ElevenLabs, a voice, and plays a test line. Use when the user runs /kobi:setup, or asks to set up Kobi, change its voice or engine, change its key, or find out why it is silent.

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

# Kobi setup

The setup script is `../../scripts/setup.sh` relative to this skill's base directory. Call it `SETUP` below and always run it with `bash "<absolute path>"`.

**Never ask the user to paste their API key into the chat, never print it, and never read `~/.config/kobi/config`.** The script reads the key from the clipboard itself.

**Scope.** Do only what the user asked for:
- Only a different voice: keep the current engine. Skip step 2 and step 6. If the engine is ElevenLabs and the status says `Kokoro on this Mac: yes`, mention in one line that Kokoro is a free option.
- A different engine: skip step 6.
- Only a new ElevenLabs key: skip steps 2, 3 and 6, and run `bash SETUP --engine elevenlabs --key-from-clipboard --voice <current voice ID>`.
- Why it is silent: step 1 only, unless something needs fixing.
- A first setup, or no clear scope: all steps.

1. Run `bash SETUP --status`. Summarize it in 3 to 5 bullets: engine and voice, key (ElevenLabs only), `/voice`, muted, and anything broken. Leave out command hints you are about to act on. `Engine: kokoro (not set up yet)` means nothing was chosen yet; treat it as having no current engine.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add sdusteric/earshot/setup@sha256:7eb736493b4afab6

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261017.f582e2b, 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.
