/minimax-voice — Text-to-Speech

Generate an MP3 (or other audio format) from text using the MiniMax TTS API.

CLI

minimax-gen voice "Hello, world." --out /tmp/hello.mp3
minimax-gen voice "Greetings, traveller." --out /tmp/greeting.mp3 \
  --voice English_expressive_narrator --emotion calm --speed 1.1

The CLI is at ~/dev/claude/gamedev/minimax-gen/bin/minimax-gen (or any path the user has on $PATH).

Pick the voice

t2a_v2 offers 300+ voices. A few useful defaults:

Voice ID Tone
English_expressive_narrator warm, narrative (default)
English_Graceful_Lady calm, feminine
English_PassionateWarrior strong, dramatic
English_Comedian upbeat, playful

For the full list, the API model speech-2.8-hd exposes them via the docs.

Audio format

Default: mp3 32 kHz 128 kbps mono. Other formats: pcm, flac, wav, opus.

After the call

  1. Show the user the path written and the trace_id from the sidecar .meta.json.
  2. Suggest reasonable next steps (preview, regenerate with different emotion).
  3. Do NOT print the contents of the meta JSON to the chat — point at the file.

Never do

  • Never echo, log, or commit the contents of ~/.claude-secrets/minimax-auth-token.
  • Never pass the token on a command line — the CLI reads it from the file directly.
  • Never write the token to any other file, even a temp file.
