stepfun-asr

stepfun-asr is a skill for Claude Code from daymade/claude-code-skills. It costs 209 tokens per session (2,296 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for transcribing Chinese or English audio with StepFun’s stepaudio-2.5-asr speech-to-text model. It uses a streaming JSON endpoint and can handle long recordings in one request, subject to the stated limit.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps send supported audio to StepFun, troubleshoot endpoint and key errors, and transcribe recordings lasting roughly 5 to 30 minutes.
Why use it?
It prevents common setup mistakes, such as using the wrong endpoint or an API key that cannot access audio services.

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

stepfun-asr 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 6d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/asr_transcribe.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.

StepFun stepaudio-2.5-asr

Transcribe audio with StepFun's stepaudio-2.5-asr (released 2026-04, verified 2026-04-23). Long audio in one call, no chunking — but only if the request hits the right endpoint with the right body shape. The wrong endpoint returns an error that looks identical to "model doesn't exist", which is the #1 reason this skill exists.

Companion: for TTS with stepaudio-2.5-tts (the sibling model), use the stepfun-tts skill — they share an API key but live on different endpoints with different body shapes.

Why this skill exists — three traps that cost hours

  1. Wrong endpoint, wrong error. stepaudio-2.5-asr does not live on /v1/audio/transcriptions (that endpoint serves the older step-asr family). It lives on /v1/audio/asr/sse — SSE streaming, JSON body, base64 audio. Sending it to the wrong endpoint returns {"error":{"message":"model stepaudio-2.5-asr not supported"}}, which is identical in structure to a genuinely nonexistent model name. People waste hours filing whitelist tickets.

  2. Plan key vs Normal key, silent failure. StepFun's "Plan" subscription keys (cheap, text-only) cannot call audio endpoints, but the failure manifests as a 4xx with no auth-shaped error message. If your account has a Plan subscription, you need a separate "Normal" key from the same console.

  3. SSE error events are real. Censorship can fire on the ASR side too (rarely). Don't assume only transcript.text.delta and transcript.text.done events arrive — handle type: error events in the stream or you'll silently drop them.

Config and auth

API key resolves in this order (fail-fast, no defaults):

  1. $STEPFUN_API_KEY environment variable
  2. ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}/config.json with {"api_key": "..."} (cross-session persistence)

First-time setup:

mkdir -p "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}" && cat > "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}/config.json" <<EOF
{"api_key": "<paste Normal key here>"}
EOF

If the user has not set a key, ask them to paste it — do not guess or use a placeholder. Get keys at https://platform.stepfun.com/ → API Keys. Use a Normal key, not a Plan key.

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

stepfun-asr is a skill published in the GitHub repository daymade/claude-code-skills (1,377 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 209 tokens to every session and 2,296 once invoked, about $0.0010 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.
