71 charsno explicit “when” trigger
Intermediate

Key capabilities

  • Verify Speak API authentication status
  • Validate audio file codec and sample rate
  • Inspect session duration and status
  • Test network connectivity to Speak and OpenAI endpoints
  • Check environment variable configuration

How it works

The tool executes shell scripts to verify API key authorization and network latency, while using ffprobe to inspect audio file metadata against specific codec and sample rate requirements.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
Path to an audio file or active Speak API session environment
You get back
Diagnostic report including HTTP status codes, environment variable status, and audio format validation results

When to use speak-debug-bundle

  • Generate diagnostic logs for support
  • Test Speak API authentication
  • Validate audio file formats
  • Debug Speak integration network issues

About this skill

Speak Debug Bundle

Overview

Collect diagnostic information for Speak API issues: auth verification, audio format validation, session inspection, and network testing.

Prerequisites

  • Completed speak-install-auth setup
  • Valid API credentials configured
  • ffmpeg installed for audio processing

Instructions

Current State

!node --version 2>/dev/null || echo 'N/A' !ffmpeg -version 2>/dev/null | head -1 || echo 'ffmpeg not installed'

Step 1: Auth Diagnostic

#!/bin/bash
set -euo pipefail
echo "=== Speak Debug Bundle ==="
echo "Time: $(date -u)"

echo -e "\n--- Auth Check ---"
STATUS=$(curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SPEAK_API_KEY" \
  https://api.speak.com/v1/languages)
echo "API Key Status: HTTP $STATUS"
[ "$STATUS" = "200" ] && echo "  Auth: OK" || echo "  Auth: FAILED"

echo -e "\n--- Environment ---"
echo "SPEAK_API_KEY set: $([ -n \"${SPEAK_API_KEY:-}\" ] && echo 'yes' || echo 'no')"
echo "SPEAK_APP_ID set: $([ -n \"${SPEAK_APP_ID:-}\" ] && echo 'yes' || echo 'no')"

Step 2: Audio Format Validator

import { execSync } from 'child_process';

function validateAudio(filePath: string): { valid: boolean; issues: string[] } {
  const issues: string[] = [];
  try {
    const info = JSON.parse(execSync(
      `ffprobe -v quiet -print_format json -show_streams "${filePath}"`,
      { encoding: 'utf-8' }
    ));
    const stream = info.streams[0];

    if (stream.codec_name !== 'pcm_s16le') issues.push(`Codec: ${stream.codec_name} (need pcm_s16le)`);
    if (parseInt(stream.sample_rate) !== 16000) issues.push(`Sample rate: ${stream.sample_rate} (need 16000)`);
    if (stream.channels !== 1) issues.push(`Channels: ${stream.channels} (need 1/mono)`);

    const size = parseInt(execSync(`stat -f%z "${filePath}"`, { encoding: 'utf-8' }));
    if (size > 25 * 1024 * 1024) issues.push(`File too large: ${(size/1024/1024).toFixed(1)}MB (max 25MB)`);
    if (size < 1000) issues.push('File too small — may be empty or corrupt');
  } catch (e) {
    issues.push(`Cannot read file: ${e}`);
  }
  return { valid: issues.length === 0, issues };
}

Step 3: Network Connectivity

echo -e "\n--- Network ---"
curl -s -o /dev/null -w "API: HTTP %{http_code} in %{time_total}s\n" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SPEAK_API_KEY" \
  https://api.speak.com/v1/health

curl -s -o /dev/null -w "OpenAI: HTTP %{http_code} in %{time_total}s\n" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $OPENAI_API_KEY" \
  https://api.openai.com/v1/models

Output

  • Bundle implementation complete
  • Speak API integration verified
  • Production-ready patterns applied

Next Steps

See speak-prod-checklist for production readiness.

Examples

Basic: Apply debug bundle with default configuration for a standard Speak integration.

Advanced: Customize for production with error recovery, monitoring, and team-specific requirements.

When not to use it

  • When Speak API credentials are not configured
  • When ffmpeg is not installed on the host system

Prerequisites

Completed speak-install-auth setupValid API credentials configuredffmpeg installed for audio processing

Limitations

  • Audio files must be under 25MB
  • Sessions expire after 30 minutes
  • Requires pcm_s16le codec and 16000Hz sample rate

How it compares

This tool automates the collection of environment and connectivity diagnostics that would otherwise require manual curl commands and individual ffprobe inspections.
