second-brain-transcript skillA

second-brain-transcript is agent-read markdown (skill) from undefined-ui/second-brain-os: Clean a raw transcript before ingestion: punctuate, paragraph, label speakers, fix mistranscribed technical terms, and split long recordings by topic. Use this skill when the user drops an auto-generated transcript, subtitle file, podcast or lecture transcript, meeting recording text, or asks to process a video or audio source. Do NOT use for text that is already prose, for summarising a transcript, or for the ingestion itself..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# Clean a transcript

Concept pages built from unpunctuated caption dumps are noticeably worse,
because the model spends its attention reconstructing sentence boundaries
instead of understanding claims.

## Core rule

Clean, never summarise. Nothing is cut. This is a formatting pass on the record,
and the record has to stay faithful.

## Workflow

1. **Punctuate and paragraph.** Sentence boundaries first, then paragraphs at
   topic shifts.
2. **Label speakers** where they change. In an interview this is most of the
   value.
3. **Fix technical terms.** Auto-captions mangle proper nouns and jargon
   consistently. Flag anything you could not resolve rather than guessing.
4. **Keep coarse timestamps** every few minutes, so a claim on a wiki page can
   be verified in ten seconds instead of a rewatch.
5. **Propose split points** if the recording covers separate topics. A
   three-hour podcast is not one source.
6. **Write frontmatter:** title, channel or speaker, URL, date.

## Output format

The cleaned transcript, then:

```
Cleaned: <source>
Speakers labelled: <n>
Terms corrected: <list>
Uncertain: <list of what could not be resolved>
