SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps users set up and verify an ElevenLabs API key so MCP tools can authenticate without repeated manual troubleshooting or guesswork.

Core Features & Use Cases

Existing-key detection: Checks whether an ElevenLabs key is already available in the environment or .env file before asking for a new one.
Key validation: Confirms the key works by calling the ElevenLabs user endpoint and distinguishes valid, invalid, or expired credentials.
Secure configuration: Saves a working key into .env for reuse, making it easier to keep ElevenLabs integrations running across sessions.
Use case: A user can recover from a broken voice workflow, rotate an expired secret, or onboard ElevenLabs access for the first time.

Quick Start

Ask me to check your current ElevenLabs key, verify it, and save a new one to .env if needed.

What is the best way to rotate an expired ElevenLabs API key in a local environment?▼

The best way to rotate an expired ElevenLabs API key is to validate the new key remotely against the user endpoint and then safely update your .env file without exposing the secret.
