Transcribe audio / video to SRT / WebVTT / JSON / plain text via OpenAI Whisper or the GPT-4o transcribe models. Auto-detects language or accepts --lang ISO-639-1. $0.003-0.006/min. Pairs with subtitle-burner. API limit 25 MB/call. Use when: 'transcribe this video', 'subtitles from audio', 'speech to text', 'распознай речь', 'сделай субтитры из видео', '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
<objective> Speech-to-text utility. Take audio or video file → output subtitle file (SRT / VTT) or transcript (JSON / text). Distinct from `voiceover-maker`: - voiceover-maker generates SPEECH from text. This goes the OPPOSITE direction: speech → text. - Both wrap an OpenAI audio API endpoint. Distinct from `subtitle-burner`: - subtitle-burner takes an existing subtitle file and burns it into video. THIS skill GENERATES the subtitle file. Chain them: `transcribe-maker` → `subtitle-burner`. This skill does NOT: - Translate the transcript (Whisper supports it via separate endpoint; not exposed in v1 — use OpenAI's `/v1/audio/translations` directly if needed) - Identify speakers / diarize (Whisper doesn't natively diarize — use deepgram or assemblyai for that) - Process files >25 MB (Whisper API limit — split with ffmpeg first) - Run locally (uses OpenAI API; for offline use whisper.cpp directly) - Edit / clean up transcript (raw Whisper output may have minor errors — manual cleanup needed for production captions) </objective> ## ROLE Read audio/video input → call OpenAI Whisper API with the requested format → save subtitle / transcript file. ## PIPELINE 1. **Resolve input**: …

How to install
mdr add mikefluff/skills/transcribe-maker@sha256:36a54afeb5bd45c4The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260803.a0f8d28, 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.
