Morning Podcast

Triggered either by the user saying "morning podcast" / "晨间播客" or by a cron job that runs this skill on a schedule. The output is a single audio file (via the speak tool) that the web frontend will auto-render as an <audio> element; if the job is delivering to a messaging channel, the MP3 travels along the outbound message.

Steps

1. Collect stories. Use web_search to gather 3–5 items across

tech, world, and markets. One or two searches is usually enough: `` web_search(query="今日科技头条", count=5) web_search(query="today world news", count=5) `` Skim titles/snippets, pick the most substantive stories, and drop anything paywalled or clickbait-y.

1. Summarize in spoken form. For each story, write ~80–120

Chinese characters (or ~40 English words). No markdown. No URLs in the spoken body — reference the outlet by name instead. Rewrite headlines into natural narration ("今天…", "另一边…").

1. Compose one script. Assemble a single continuous string:

• Greeting using {{ghost_name}}, e.g. "{{ghost_name}} 早安播

报，今天是 X 月 Y 日。"

• Item 1 → item N with short transitions.
• Sign-off: "以上就是今天的晨间播报，{{user_name}}，祝你有个顺

利的一天。"

1. Call `speak` exactly once with the full script:

`` speak(text="<full assembled script>") ` A single call yields the best prosody. Do **not** call speak` per-item — concatenating multiple clips sounds choppy.

1. Reply briefly. One sentence summarizing what's in the briefing

(e.g. "今日播报已生成：科技 / 市场 / 国际 共 4 条"). The audio itself is attached through the tool result's media — you don't need to repeat the script in the reply.

Notes

• Real tool name is web_search (not web.search) and speak.
• If speak fails, fall back to a text-only briefing and tell the

user why ("TTS unavailable: …").

• Never include URLs in the TTS input — Volcengine reads them out

character-by-character and it sounds terrible.
