The Zonos TTS MCP for Linux is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that integrates Zonos text‑to‑speech with Claude on Linux systems. It enables Claude to generate natural‑sounding speech in multiple languages and emotions, using a running Zonos API instance and PulseAudio or PipeWire for audio playback.
