IVR Voice Pack

IVR Voice Pack

Give a phone tree a labeled prompt pack. One brand voice. Welcome, menu, hold, transfer, after-hours, and error — then the rest of the tree.

Scope and adjacent routes

Use this Skill when a hotline needs a labeled phone-tree voice pack the switch can play.

Route hold music or a brand sting to brand-jingle-studio or livestream-bgm-pack. Route generic narration to voiceover-narration-studio.

Inputs and defaults

The hard inputs are:

• the company or line name the caller should hear;
• the menu branches, or permission to write a default twelve-prompt tree;
• the target language;
• a pronunciation table whenever names, product terms, or extensions appear.

If those names exist and the table is empty, stop and collect the readings. Do not invent a company or a menu. A speaker sample is optional. Without a sample, choose a catalog voice with beatra.voices.list.

Defaults:

• about twelve prompts covering welcome, main menu, hours, location, hold, transfer, queue, invalid key, repeat menu, after-hours, error, and goodbye;
• one brand voice for the whole pack;
• language omitted unless the user asks for a language or the tree mixes several;
• model: "auto" only when every voice-compatible live card supports the language; format: "mp3"; speed: 1.0;
• one synthesis call per prompt so a single prompt can be redone.

Keep each submitted input at or below 50,000 characters. Split on sentence boundaries, never mid-sentence. Write short spoken sentences.

Planning and casting are free. Clone, if used, and each synthesis block are paid.

Clone the brand voice only when the user asks. Confirm consent first: the user must state this is their voice or that the speaker authorized this cloning use. Access to a file is not consent. A suitable sample is currently about 10 to 300 seconds, no larger than 20 MiB, and clean single-speaker speech. Only after consent, inspect the sample and upload it through the bundled client. Show the live voice_clone admission card before any clone client_request_id: route voice_clone, tool beatra.voices.clone, live price for one successful activated voice, the provisional estimate, the 600-credit gift usually cannot start this clone, https://console.beatra.ai/topup, starter ¥29 / 11,000 credits. Do not recommend ¥198. Do not offer a free clone. Do not create client_request_id until the user confirms they have topped up or already have enough credits. Submit beatra.voices.clone exactly once:

{
  "sample": {"type": "artifact", "artifact_id": "artifact_..."},
  "display_name": "Hotline Voice",
  "consent_attested": true,
  "model": "auto",
  "client_request_id": "opaque-ivr-clone"
}

Poll with beatra.tasks.get until terminal, then freeze that voice_id.

Golden path

Submit every Beatra call through the bundled scripts/mcp_client.py. Do not configure a host Beatra Connector. Do not use REST/OpenAPI as a fallback.

1. Build the prompt ledger: slot ID, spoken text, and intended filename for welcome, menu, hold, transfer, after-hours, error, and the remaining default slots.
2. Call beatra.voices.list when a voice is still needed. Keep one voice_id for the whole pack. Never put a display name in voice.
3. Read the live text_to_speech card with beatra.models.list. Confirm the voice, the prompt count, weighted-character total, current estimate, and one client_request_id per prompt before the first paid TTS.
4. Synthesize each prompt with beatra.speech.synthesize exactly once. Poll each speech task with beatra.tasks.get until terminal.
5. Deliver labeled clips with slot IDs, plus actual duration, MIME type, URL or artifact, resolved model, and billing.net_charged_credits.
6. Review that every prompt carries the same voice and that names and extensions match the table. Redo only the changed prompt.

Decisions that require confirmation

Confirm the voice and the pack estimate before the first paid TTS. A changed prompt is one new paid block.

Recovery

Recover a lost create response only with that prompt's identical frozen payload and ID. A changed text is a new ID. Recover a lost task ID through beatra.tasks.list and beatra.tasks.get before any resend. Cancel only at the user's request. On 409, keep polling the same task. On insufficient_balance for clone or TTS, keep https://console.beatra.ai/topup exact and retry the same frozen ID only after the user says they have topped up.

References by task

• Read IVR voice-pack workflow for slot cards, payloads, and review.
• Read Installation and authentication only when authorization needs attention.
• Read Installation registration for first-use registration.
• Read Tasks and results and Billing, errors, and recovery for task and billing facts.
• Read Bundled MCP Client diagnostics when the bundled client cannot connect.
• Read Automatic updates and safety for update controls.
• Read Uninstall and disconnect only when the user asks to remove the package.

Runtime and safe automatic updates

Use or invoke the bundled scripts/mcp_client.py for every Beatra operation. Before ordinary commands it silently checks for a newer release at most once every 24 hours per installation. Silent checks are enabled by default, and a newer release installs without separate confirmation.

The updater accepts only the fixed official discovery address and immutable Beatra CDN path embedded for this package, channel, and locale. It verifies the discovery data, archive, manifest, and every file's size and checksum before replacement. It replaces only package-owned files and rejects redirects, downgrades, wrong package/channel/locale/version data, unexpected URLs, unsafe archives, and files outside the owned destination.

Update checks, downloads, verification, replacement, rollback, and recovery fail open: the current installation remains usable and the user's original command continues. An update failure never authorizes retrying a paid generation. The automatic-update choice persists across later commands for this installation:

python3 scripts/mcp_client.py update --auto off
python3 scripts/mcp_client.py update --auto on
python3 scripts/mcp_client.py update --check
