What this skill does
# Speak Security Basics
## Overview
Security best practices for Speak API keys, audio data privacy, student data protection, and COPPA/FERPA compliance.
## Prerequisites
- Completed `speak-install-auth` setup
- Valid API credentials configured
- ffmpeg installed for audio processing
## Instructions
### API Key Security
```bash
# Never commit API keys
echo '.env' >> .gitignore
echo '.env.local' >> .gitignore
# Use secrets manager in production
export SPEAK_API_KEY="$(aws secretsmanager get-secret-value --secret-id speak/api-key --query SecretString --output text)"
```
### Audio Data Privacy
```typescript
// Speak processes audio on their servers — do NOT store student audio locally
// unless required by your application
class PrivacyAwareClient {
async assessAndClean(audioPath: string, targetText: string, language: string) {
try {
const result = await this.client.assessPronunciation({
audioPath, targetText, language,
});
return result;
} finally {
// Delete local audio file after assessment
fs.unlinkSync(audioPath);
}
}
}
```
### Student Data Protection
- Never log student audio recordings
- Redact student names from API logs
- Store assessment scores, not raw audio
- Implement data retention policies (delete after N days)
- COPPA compliance for students under 13: parental consent required
- FERPA compliance for educational institutions: student data agreements
### Security Checklist
- [ ] API keys in secrets manager, not code
- [ ] Audio files deleted after processing
- [ ] Student PII not logged
- [ ] HTTPS enforced for all API calls
- [ ] Rate limiting prevents abuse
- [ ] Access logs maintained for audit
## Output
- Basics implementation complete
- Speak API integration verified
- Production-ready patterns applied
## Error Handling
| Error | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| 401 Unauthorized | Invalid API key | Verify SPEAK_API_KEY environment variable |
| 429 Rate Limited | Too many requests | Wait Retry-After seconds, use backoff |
| Audio format error | Wrong codec/sample rate | Convert to WAV 16kHz mono with ffmpeg |
| Session expired | Timeout after 30 min | Start a new conversation session |

## Next Steps
See `speak-prod-checklist` for production readiness.
## Examples
**Basic**: Apply security basics with default configuration for a standard Speak integration.
**Advanced**: Customize for production with error recovery, monitoring, and team-specific requirements.
Related in Image & Video
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. Trigger keywords: defect image generation, dig workflow, dig pipeline, defect image detection workflow, aoi pipeline, aoi anomalygen, usd2roi anomalygen, day 0 pcba, day 1 pcba, day 1 real-photo alignment, day 1 manual roi, metal surface anomaly, glass defect, anomalygen finetune, setup_pcb, setup_metal, setup_glass, setup_pretrained, dig setup, dig datasets, dig pretrained checkpoint, dig image-edit endpoint.
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.
elevenlabs-agents
IncludedBuild conversational AI voice agents with ElevenLabs Platform using React, JavaScript, React Native, or Swift SDKs. Configure agents, tools (client/server/MCP), RAG knowledge bases, multi-voice, and Scribe real-time STT. Use when: building voice chat interfaces, implementing AI phone agents with Twilio, configuring agent workflows or tools, adding RAG knowledge bases, testing with CLI "agents as code", or troubleshooting deprecated @11labs packages, Android audio cutoff, CSP violations, dynamic variables, or WebRTC config.

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.
