What this skill does
# Podcast Generation with GPT Realtime Mini
Generate real audio narratives from text content using Azure OpenAI's Realtime API.
## Quick Start
1. Configure environment variables for Realtime API
2. Connect via WebSocket to Azure OpenAI Realtime endpoint
3. Send text prompt, collect PCM audio chunks + transcript
4. Convert PCM to WAV format
5. Return base64-encoded audio to frontend for playback
## Environment Configuration
```env
AZURE_OPENAI_AUDIO_API_KEY=your_realtime_api_key
AZURE_OPENAI_AUDIO_ENDPOINT=https://your-resource.cognitiveservices.azure.com
AZURE_OPENAI_AUDIO_DEPLOYMENT=gpt-realtime-mini
```
**Note**: Endpoint should NOT include `/openai/v1/` - just the base URL.
## Core Workflow
### Backend Audio Generation
```python
from openai import AsyncOpenAI
import base64
# Convert HTTPS endpoint to WebSocket URL
ws_url = endpoint.replace("https://", "wss://") + "/openai/v1"
client = AsyncOpenAI(
websocket_base_url=ws_url,
api_key=api_key
)
audio_chunks = []
transcript_parts = []
async with client.realtime.connect(model="gpt-realtime-mini") as conn:
# Configure for audio-only output
await conn.session.update(session={
"output_modalities": ["audio"],
"instructions": "You are a narrator. Speak naturally."
})
# Send text to narrate
await conn.conversation.item.create(item={
"type": "message",
"role": "user",
"content": [{"type": "input_text", "text": prompt}]
})
await conn.response.create()
# Collect streaming events
async for event in conn:
if event.type == "response.output_audio.delta":
audio_chunks.append(base64.b64decode(event.delta))
elif event.type == "response.output_audio_transcript.delta":
transcript_parts.append(event.delta)
elif event.type == "response.done":
break
# Convert PCM to WAV (see scripts/pcm_to_wav.py)
pcm_audio = b''.join(audio_chunks)
wav_audio = pcm_to_wav(pcm_audio, sample_rate=24000)
```
### Frontend Audio Playback
```javascript
// Convert base64 WAV to playable blob
const base64ToBlob = (base64, mimeType) => {
const bytes = atob(base64);
const arr = new Uint8Array(bytes.length);
for (let i = 0; i < bytes.length; i++) arr[i] = bytes.charCodeAt(i);
return new Blob([arr], { type: mimeType });
};
const audioBlob = base64ToBlob(response.audio_data, 'audio/wav');
const audioUrl = URL.createObjectURL(audioBlob);
new Audio(audioUrl).play();
```
## Voice Options
| Voice | Character |
|-------|-----------|
| alloy | Neutral |
| echo | Warm |
| fable | Expressive |
| onyx | Deep |
| nova | Friendly |
| shimmer | Clear |
## Realtime API Events
- `response.output_audio.delta` - Base64 audio chunk
- `response.output_audio_transcript.delta` - Transcript text
- `response.done` - Generation complete
- `error` - Handle with `event.error.message`
## Audio Format
- **Input**: Text prompt
- **Output**: PCM audio (24kHz, 16-bit, mono)
- **Storage**: Base64-encoded WAV
## References
- **Full architecture**: See [references/architecture.md](references/architecture.md) for complete stack design
- **Code examples**: See [references/code-examples.md](references/code-examples.md) for production patterns
- **PCM conversion**: Use [scripts/pcm_to_wav.py](scripts/pcm_to_wav.py) for audio format conversion

watch
IncludedWatch a video (URL or local path). Downloads with yt-dlp, extracts auto-scaled frames with ffmpeg, pulls the transcript from captions (or Whisper API fallback), and hands the result to Claude so it can answer questions about what's in the video.
physical-ai-defect-image-generation
IncludedUse when the user wants to orchestrate defect image generation, run associated setup, or handle outputs on OSMO. The Day 0 path handles cold-start with USD-to-ROI, image-edit augmentation, and AnomalyGen to create initial PCBA datasets. The Day 1 path performs inference and labeling on real images. This skill helps with first-time asset setup, creation of finetuning checkpoints, and configuring deployment.

accelint-react-best-practices
IncludedReact performance optimization and best practices. ALWAYS use this skill when working with any React code - writing components, hooks, JSX; refactoring; optimizing re-renders, memoization, state management; reviewing for performance; fixing hydration mismatches; debugging infinite re-renders, stale closures, input focus loss, animations restarting; preventing remounting; implementing transitions, lazy initialization, effect dependencies. Even simple React tasks benefit from these patterns. Covers React 19+ (useEffectEvent, Activity, ref props). Triggers - useEffect, useState, useMemo, useCallback, memo, inline components, nested components, components inside components, re-render, performance, hydration, SSR, Next.js, useDeferredValue, combined hooks.

humanizer
IncludedHumanize AI-generated text by detecting and removing patterns typical of LLM output. Rewrites text to sound natural, specific, and human. Uses 28 pattern detectors, 560+ AI vocabulary terms across 3 tiers, and statistical analysis (burstiness, type-token ratio, readability) for comprehensive detection. Use when asked to humanize text, de-AI writing, make content sound more natural/human, review writing for AI patterns, score text for AI detection, or improve AI-generated drafts. Covers content, language, style, communication, and filler categories.
generating-mermaid-diagrams
IncludedSalesforce architecture diagrams using Mermaid with ASCII fallback. Use this skill when generating text-based diagrams for Salesforce architecture, OAuth flows, ERDs, integration sequences, or Agentforce structure. TRIGGER when: user says "diagram", "visualize", "ERD", or asks for sequence diagrams, flowcharts, class diagrams, or architecture visualizations in Mermaid. DO NOT TRIGGER when: user wants PNG/SVG image output (use generating-visual-diagrams), or asks about non-Salesforce systems.
