speech-to-md

speech-to-md is a skill for Codex from ansea09/agent-skills-and-protocols. It costs 102 tokens per session (1,888 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A local speech-to-text workflow that turns trusted audio recordings into Markdown transcript bundles. It uses a local whisper.cpp speech-recognition engine and records timestamps, source details, and uncertainty.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to transcribe local recordings and prepare them for analysis, summaries, quotations, or review in Markdown.
Why use it?
It provides an auditable transcript format instead of leaving spoken content as an audio file that is difficult to search or analyze.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

speech-to-md 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/install.sh, scripts/regression_corpus.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Speech To Md

Document Roles

This SKILL.md is the executable routing contract. Keep detailed output and runtime rules in references:

  • references/audio-bundle.md - canonical transcript bundle contract.
  • references/runtime.md - local ASR engine, model, install, and support boundaries.
  • references/extension-boundaries.md - refactoring thresholds for additional ASR engines, diarization, long-recording chunking, and cloud workflows.

Operating Contract

This skill handles trusted local speech recordings. It is separate from doc-to-md: document conversion extracts existing file content, while speech conversion performs ASR and must preserve uncertainty through timestamps, engine metadata, and audit notes.

The public skill source does not bundle ASR models, Homebrew packages, Python virtual environments, cloud credentials, or generated transcripts. Use a local ASR engine deliberately. The first supported source-level engine contract is whisper.cpp through a whisper-cli executable and a user-provided model file.

Cloud transcription, diarization, translation, speaker identification, long-recording chunking, and meeting-minutes generation are explicit advanced modes. Do not imply they work unless the needed engine, credentials, workflow, and output evidence contract have been installed and checked.

Route Selection

Situation Action
Trusted local speech audio and whisper.cpp is configured speech-to-md audio-file -o audio-bundle --model /path/to/model.bin
Existing transcript should be packaged for LLM analysis speech-to-md --transcript transcript.txt --source-audio audio-file -o audio-bundle
User asks to convert audio through doc-to-md Route here; audio is outside doc-to-md core.
Speaker labels or diarization are required Explain that the current local workflow does not provide diarization; use an explicit advanced engine later.
Untrusted, remote, hosted, or shared-user audio ingestion Stop and require separate sandboxing and privacy review before processing.

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-to-md is a skill published in the GitHub repository ansea09/agent-skills-and-protocols (2 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 102 tokens to every session and 1,888 once invoked, about $0.0005 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 2026-08-31.
