    Podcast Generate

    Generate podcast episodes from user-provided content or by searching the web for specified topics. If user uploads a text file/article, creates a dual-host dialogue podcast (or single-host upon request). If no content is provided, searches the web for information about the user-specified topic and generates a podcast. Duration scales with content size (3-20 minutes, ~240 chars/min). Uses z-ai-web-dev-sdk for LLM script generation and TTS audio synthesis. Outputs both a podcast script (Markdown) and a complete audio file (WAV).

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

1 rule. 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 64 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 1

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Do not search for what local files or commands can answer.

    line 10

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 64 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

web-search

Run <skill-dir>/web-search QUERY, where <skill-dir> is the directory you read this file from. The script hands the query to a search agent, which runs its own web searches, reads the pages and answers in 5 to 20 seconds. Write the query as a question to that agent, with the context it needs, not as search keywords: 'What changed in the latest ruff release?' rather than 'ruff changelog'.

Do not search for what local files or commands can answer.

The script prints a JSON object:

  • answer: the answer, with inline links to its sources.
  • sources: the pages backing the answer, each with url, title and excerpt. An excerpt is the search model's paraphrase, not a quote: open the page when you need its exact wording.
  • searches: what the search model did, in order: a search with its queries and the URLs it consulted, or an open_page or find_in_page on a url.

A LoginError means the ChatGPT login of hax is missing or could not be renewed: report its message to the user.
