Zonos TTS MCP Server

Zonos MCP Integration

A Model Context Protocol integration for Zonos TTS, allowing Claude to generate speech directly.

Setup

Installing via Smithery

To install Zonos TTS Integration for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @PhialsBasement/zonos-tts-mcp --client claude

Manual installation

  1. Make sure you have Zonos running with our API implementation (PhialsBasement/zonos-api)
  2. Install dependencies:
npm install @modelcontextprotocol/sdk axios
  1. Configure PulseAudio access:
# Your pulse audio should be properly configured for audio playback # The MCP server will automatically try to connect to your pulse server
  1. Build the MCP server:
npm run build # This will create the dist folder with the compiled server
  1. Add to Claude's config file: Edit your Claude config file (usually in ~/.config/claude/config.json) and add this to the mcpServers section:
"zonos-tts": { "command": "node", "args": [ "/path/to/your/zonos-mcp/dist/server.js" ] }

Replace /path/to/your/zonos-mcp with the actual path where you installed the MCP server.

Using with Claude

Once configured, Claude automatically knows how to use the speak_response tool:

speak_response( text="Your text here", language="en-us", # optional, defaults to en-us emotion="happy" # optional: "neutral", "happy", "sad", "angry" )

Features

  • Text-to-speech through Claude
  • Multiple emotions support
  • Multi-language support
  • Proper audio playback through PulseAudio

Requirements
