stream-transcript

stream-transcript is a skill for Claude Code from markmhendrickson/ateles. It costs 109 tokens per session (5,812 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A live transcript stream for an ongoing recording, sending provisional speech-to-text chunks into the current agent session. It uses only the system audio track and does not permanently store the transcript.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it during a meeting to give the agent current spoken context and specify what it should watch for and how it may respond.
Why use it?
It lets the agent follow a meeting while it happens instead of waiting for the recording to finish, while making clear that the live text may contain mistakes.

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

stream-transcript 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 1mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 490 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Stream transcript

Feed a live meeting transcript into the current session while the meeting is still happening, so the agent holds the conversation as context rather than reading it afterwards.

This is the live, advisory half of meeting capture. The authoritative half is unchanged and still owned by Tyto + analyze-meeting: full-file, diarized, stored in Neotoma, reconciled against the graph.

Relationship to the rest of the pipeline

Live stream (this skill) Post-hoc (Tyto → analyze-meeting)
When While recording After the file settles
Engine Whisper only, no diarization Best available, diarized
Boundaries Arbitrary N-second cuts Whole file
Speakers System track only — not the operator's mic Both tracks, merged
Neotoma Nothing durable Authoritative entities
Purpose Orient the agent mid-meeting Metabolize the meeting

Live chunks are provisional by construction. They are cut mid-sentence, they garble non-speech, and they never see the operator's own voice. Treat every live claim as something the authoritative pass will restate better.

Recorder control: detect only

This skill does not start or stop Audio Hijack. Audio Hijack 4 exposes scripted control via App Intents (AH4RunScriptIntent), and this machine already has a Tyto session plus start_tyto_* / stop_tyto_test scripts and Shortcuts — but as of 2026-08-28 all three Shortcuts fail with "An unknown error occurred" and change no recording state, likely because scripted control requires confirmation (confirmAH4RunScript:completion:). Until that is resolved, the operator starts and stops the recorder; this skill detects what is running.

Note: shortcuts run exits 0 even when the shortcut fails. Never trust its exit code — parse its output.

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.
