# SCRIPT_VOICE_UNKNOWN

> A voice direction names no voice the project declares, or a line opens with the word voice and is not a voice direction.

A voice direction names no voice the project declares, or a line opens with the word voice and is not a voice direction.

This finding is an error, and DeckTalk judges it itself. `decktalk check` reports it when it judges the project's files before a build.
Pass `--allow SCRIPT_VOICE_UNKNOWN` to carry on past it, and `--fail-on` to choose which severity fails a run.

## What to do

Declare the voice as a `[voices.NAME]` table in `decktalk.toml`, correct the name in the direction, or reword a line that opens with the word voice.
