Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00048 | $0.00281 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00024 | $0.00140 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00056 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00028 |
Grade A, and why
speech-transcribe scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
What it actually says
Transcribe an audio file with Apple's on-device speech recognition.
Use Bash to execute (one call):
/Users/esaruoho/work/apple/bin/speech-transcribe $ARGUMENTS
Notes:
- Apple-native:
SFSpeechRecognizerwithrequiresOnDeviceRecognition— no Whisper, no pip, no network. Verified ~3 s on a ~12 s clip (M3 Pro), high accuracy. - TCC-gated: the terminal/app needs "Speech Recognition" in Privacy & Security.
--authreports/requests status. - Gotcha (baked into the tool): SFSpeechRecognizer delivers callbacks to the main
run loop, so the CLI spins
RunLoop.main.run()and exits from the handler — blocking on a semaphore deadlocks and yields no result. - A fast local alternative/complement to whisp (Whisper). See
wiki/concepts/apple-silicon-ml.md.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

speech-transcribe is a command published in the GitHub repository esaruoho/apple (12 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 48 tokens to every session and 281 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
