What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Transcribe a voice note or audio file to text locally (offline, no API/key) — Ogg/Opus (Telegram voice), WAV, MP3, FLAC. Use when a message arrives with a voice attachment, or whenever you need speech-to-text for an audio file. Outputs the transcript text; supports French/English/auto language detection.
The file declares its own license as MIT. That is the author’s claim about this one file, and it is not the same thing as the license GitHub reports for the repository, which is listed with the other numbers below.

Voice transcription (local, offline)
Transcribes audio to text on-device using whisper.cpp
(small multilingual model) plus a pure-WASM Opus decoder. No network, no API key, works
headless. Good for French and English.
Setup (one time)
bash ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/setup.sh
This installs the Node Opus decoder and builds whisper.cpp + downloads the small model
(~466 MB) into the skill's engine/ folder. Idempotent — safe to re-run. Requires git,
cmake, a C compiler, and node (18+).
When to use
- A message arrives with a voice attachment (
audio/ogg, Telegram.oga). - You have any audio file (
.oga,.ogg,.wav,.mp3,.flac) and need its text.
How to use
${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/bin/transcribe.sh <audio-path> [lang]
langis optional:fr,en, orauto(default). Forcefr/enfor best accuracy.- The transcript is printed to stdout.
Example:
${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/bin/transcribe.sh ~/Downloads/voice-note.oga fr
Notes
- First word of output may have a leading space — trim if needed.
- A ~15 s clip transcribes in a few seconds on CPU.
- To point at an existing whisper.cpp build instead of the bundled one, export
VT_ENGINE=/path/to/whisper.cpp(must containbuild/bin/whisper-cli+models/ggml-small.bin). - For higher accuracy at the cost of speed/size, swap the model in
setup.sh(e.g.medium).
