Plugin

tts-attention-alert

Windows-only attention alerts for AI coding agents. When the agent pauses for permission, asks a question, or finishes a response, the plugin speaks the notification out loud (TTS) and pulses a colored frame around your primary monitor — gold for blocking events, escalating to orange and red if you don't respond within 20s and 40s. Stop events get a calmer blue 3-pulse. Auto-ducks Spotify, YouTube, VLC, and other media apps around the spoken phrase so the alert is audible even mid-song, then resumes them. A forensic log of every event is written to ~/.claude/cache/notifications.log so you can scroll back what fired while you were away. No external dependencies — pure System.Speech.Synthesis, WPF, and WinRT GlobalSystemMediaTransportControlsSessionManager.

Having a capability is not wrongdoing; many tools need these to do their job. It tells you what to check before you install.
