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

whisper 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 10d 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

Whisper

Whisper (OpenAI) is the industry standard for Speech-to-Text. It supports 99 languages and translation. V3 (large-v3) is the current state of the art.

When to Use

  • Transcription: Creating subtitles for videos.
  • Translation: Translating audio to English text.
  • Local Privacy: Runs 100% locally (sensitive meetings).

Core Concepts

Models

tiny, base, small, medium, large, legacy, large-v3, large-v3-turbo.

Distil-Whisper

Smaller, faster versions of Whisper (6x speedup, 1% accuracy loss).

Best Practices (2025)

Do:

  • Use insanely-fast-whisper: A wrapper that uses Flash Attention to transcribing 2 hours of audio in 2 minutes.
  • Use API for streaming: OpenAI API supports streaming audio transcription.

Don't:

  • Don't use large for realtime: It's too slow. Use turbo or distil models.

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.
