Produce full-length audiobooks and long-form narration with generative voice tools. Use when the task is to turn a manuscript or long text into hours of spoken audio: preparing the manuscript for narration (front/back matter, footnotes, tables, dialogue), casting a single narrator or full cast, controlling pronunciation and voice consistency across a whole book, running a proofing/QC listen, meeting a retailer's technical delivery specs (RMS, peak, noise floor, room tone, chapterized files, metadata), and choosing a distribution route under each platform's current AI-narration policy. Not for short TTS clips, single-line voiceover, podcast production, or captioning existing video.

# Audiobook production

An audiobook is not a long TTS clip. It is a **structured deliverable of many
chapterized files**, each of which must pass an automated loudness/noise gate,
carry the right metadata, and sound like the same performer that opened Chapter
1. The problems that dominate this work — voice drift over ten hours, a proper
noun mispronounced 40 times, a footnote that makes no sense read aloud, a file
rejected for a -58 dB noise floor, a platform that silently bans AI narration —
do not exist in short-clip synthesis. This skill is about managing hour-scale
production, not about generating one good sentence.

This is a **craft skill, provider-neutral**. Generative voice tools are
referenced by capability (pronunciation lexicon, SSML support, seed/consistency
control, per-chapter regeneration), not by brand. Specific tools and retail
