TTS MCP is a server for IDEs and other MCP hosts that turns LLM text into speech and plays it through the host’s speakers. It combines configured remote and local providers, with voice routing and local caching.

Key features

  1. 01Playback through host speakers
  2. 02Tools for configured TTS providers
  3. 03Voice and provider persona routing
  4. 04Local audio artifact caching

Use cases

  1. 01Hear LLM text read aloud in an IDE
  2. 02Choose a configured voice by persona
  3. 03Reuse locally cached audio

MCP support

It exposes text-to-speech provider tools to MCP clients, which can send text for synthesis and playback.

Details

From the project README

TTS MCP

MCP server that provides Text-to-Speech capabilities. It accepts text output from LLMs, synthesizes it using remote or local audio providers, and plays it directly through the host system's native speakers.

Features

  • Direct Playback: Pipes synthesized audio to the host system natively.
  • Provider Aggregation: Automatically exposes individual command tools for any configured TTS provider.
  • Persona Routing: Map specific voices and providers to semantic names to simplify LLM tool calls.
  • Caching: Saves generated audio artifacts locally to an XDG cache directory.

Supported Providers

  • FishAudio
  • ElevenLabs
  • Neets AI
  • PlayHT
  • Cartesia
  • OpenAI
  • Azure
  • Local APIs

Installation

Requires Go 1.22+ to build from source via just init

Download the pre-compiled binaries matching your OS from the Releases page.

Configuration

tts-mcp requires an .env file in your standard OS configuration directory:

  • Windows: %APPDATA%\tts-mcp\.env
  • Linux: ~/.config/tts-mcp/.env
  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/tts-mcp/.env

Run the included tts-mcp-config CLI to safely initialize this file, or populate it manually:

FISHAUDIO_API_KEY="<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>"
ELEVENLABS_API_KEY="<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>"

Setup

You can attach the server as a standard command-line MCP tool in your preferred AI editor.

Antigravity and Cursor

Add the executable to your MCP Servers configuration list:

  • Name: tts-mcp
  • Type: command
  • Command: /absolute/path/to/extracted/tts-mcp
Claude Code and Claude Desktop

Append to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tts-mcp": {
      "command": "/absolute/path/to/extracted/tts-mcp"
    }
  }
}

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
