Transcribe audio and video files using the configured speech-to-text provider.

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

Transcribe audio and video files using the configured speech-to-text provider. Supports multiple STT providers including OpenAI Whisper, Deepgram, and Google Gemini — the active provider is selected in Settings under Speech-to-Text (`services.stt`).

## Usage Notes

- The tool accepts a `file_path` (absolute path to a local audio or video file) to transcribe.
- Supported formats: any video (mp4, mov, etc.) or audio (mp3, wav, m4a, etc.) file.
- For video files, audio is automatically extracted via ffmpeg before transcription.
- Large files are automatically split into chunks for processing.
- If no STT provider credentials are configured, the tool will return an error with setup instructions.
- The STT provider (`services.stt`) is shared between transcription and telephony call paths.

## Maintenance

When adding or modifying an STT provider, follow the onboarding checklist at `assistant/docs/stt-provider-onboarding.md`. That document covers the daemon catalog, config schema, adapter wiring, client catalog parity, and required tests.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add vellum-ai/vellum-assistant/transcribe@sha256:8e50033d564e9751

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260611.2d917b0, 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.
