How to Use the ElevenLabs MCP in Cline

Q: How does Cline use the ElevenLabs MCP Server to generate speech?

Once connected, Cline gains access to the texttospeech tool. You can instruct it to 'generate audio for this text', and Cline will execute the tool with the correct parameters and return the audio metadata.

Q: Can Cline access my custom voices from ElevenLabs via the MCP connection?

Yes. Cline can use the listvoices tool to see all voices available in your ElevenLabs account, including any custom ones you've created. You can then specify which one to use for generation.

Q: How can I see my ElevenLabs usage with Cline and this MCP Server?

Ask Cline to run the getsubscription tool. It will show you details about your plan, including your character usage, quota, and when it resets.

Let Cline build apps with high-quality AI voices from ElevenLabs, directly inside your VS Code workspace.

Build Voice-Enabled Components

Cline can now use the `text_to_speech` tool to generate audio right from your IDE. Ask it to build a component that turns article text into a spoken-word version. Cline will write the code, call the tool, and handle the audio metadata. It's not just a code snippet; it's a working feature. Cline can also use `list_models` to fetch available speech models and write logic to switch between them based on your application's needs.

The Cline MCP Server for ElevenLabs

Give your autonomous agent the tools to manage your audio assets. Cline can use `list_voices` and `get_voice` to fetch voice profiles and embed them into your application's front end. It can also check on past audio jobs. Just ask Cline to `list_history` to see what's been generated or get details on a specific file with `get_history_item`. It brings your asset management into your editor.

Code That Knows Its Limits

Build smarter applications that are aware of their own operational costs. Cline can use `get_subscription` to check your current ElevenLabs plan and character usage. You can ask it to write functions that throttle API calls or switch to a lower-cost voice model when your character quota is running low. This makes for more resilient and cost-effective code.
