Transcribe audio via OpenAI Audio Transcriptions API (Whisper).

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# OpenAI Whisper API (curl)

Transcribe an audio file via OpenAI’s `/v1/audio/transcriptions` endpoint.

## Quick start

```bash
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a
```

Defaults:
- Model: `whisper-1`
- Output: `<input>.txt`

## Useful flags

```bash
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.ogg --model whisper-1 --out /tmp/transcript.txt
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a --language en
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a --prompt "Speaker names: Peter, Daniel"
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a --json --out /tmp/transcript.json
```

## API key

Set `OPENAI_API_KEY`, or configure it in `~/.cybara/config.json`:

```json5
{
  skills: {
    "openai-whisper-api": {
      apiKey: "OPENAI_KEY_HERE"
    }
  }
}
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add metaspartan/cybara/openai-whisper-api@sha256:c1f81e95f3277de3

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260218.a87179d, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
