Component Version Upgrade

Upgrade individual components of the TTS + Telegram bot stack without rebuilding the entire system.

Platform: macOS (Apple Silicon)


Self-Evolving Skill: This skill improves through use. If instructions are wrong, parameters drifted, or a workaround was needed — fix this file immediately, don't defer. Only update for real, reproducible issues.

When to Use This Skill

  • User wants to upgrade Kokoro TTS engine, Python dependencies, or the model
  • User wants to update bot dependencies (Bun packages)
  • User wants to refresh
    tts_generate.py
    from the plugin bundle
  • User wants to bump the Bun runtime version

Requirements

  • uv
    installed (
    brew install uv
    )
  • mise
    installed and configured
  • Internet connectivity for package downloads
  • Existing installation (run
    full-stack-bootstrap
    first if not installed)

Upgradeable Components

ComponentCommandWhat It Does
Kokoro TTS engine
kokoro-install.sh --upgrade
Upgrades Python deps, re-downloads model, updates version.json
Bot dependencies
cd ~/.claude/automation/claude-telegram-sync && bun update
Updates Bun packages per package.json
tts_generate.pyRe-copy from plugin
scripts/
to
~/.local/share/kokoro/
Updates the TTS generation script
Bun runtime
mise use bun@latest
Updates the Bun version in mise.toml

Workflow Phases

Phase 1: Component Selection

Ask the user which component to upgrade using AskUserQuestion. Present the four options above.

Phase 2: Pre-Upgrade Health Check

# Run health check to establish baseline
~/.local/share/kokoro/../../eon/cc-skills/plugins/tts-tg-sync/scripts/kokoro-install.sh --health

# Record current versions
cat ~/.local/share/kokoro/version.json

Phase 3: Execute Upgrade

Run the appropriate upgrade command for the selected component.

Phase 4: Post-Upgrade Verification

# Health check again
kokoro-install.sh --health

# Generate test audio to verify TTS still works
~/.local/share/kokoro/.venv/bin/python ~/.local/share/kokoro/tts_generate.py \
  --text "Upgrade verification test" --voice af_heart --lang en-us --speed 1.0 \
  --output /tmp/kokoro-tts-upgrade-test.wav

Phase 5: Bot Restart (if needed)

If bot dependencies or Bun runtime were upgraded, restart the bot:

pkill -f 'bun.*src/main.ts' || true
cd ~/.claude/automation/claude-telegram-sync && bun --watch run src/main.ts

TodoWrite Task Templates

1. [Identify] Present upgradeable components via AskUserQuestion
2. [Preflight] Run health check on target component
3. [Backup] Note current versions (version.json, package.json)
4. [Upgrade] Execute upgrade command
5. [Verify] Run post-upgrade health check
6. [Test] Generate test audio to verify TTS still works
7. [Restart] Restart bot if needed
8. [Report] Show before/after versions

Post-Change Checklist

  • Health check passes (all 6 checks OK)
  • version.json updated with new versions
  • Test audio generates and plays correctly
  • Bot is running if it was restarted

Reference Documentation

Post-Execution Reflection

After this skill completes, reflect before closing the task:

  1. Locate yourself. — Find this SKILL.md's canonical path (Glob for this skill's name) before editing. All corrections target THIS file and its sibling references/ — never other documentation.
  2. What failed? — Fix the instruction that caused it. If it could recur, add it as an anti-pattern.
  3. What worked better than expected? — Promote it to recommended practice. Document why.
  4. What drifted? — Any script, reference, or external dependency that no longer matches reality gets fixed now.
  5. Log it. — Every change gets an evolution-log entry with trigger, fix, and evidence.

Do NOT defer. The next invocation inherits whatever you leave behind.
