Getting it into your agent
There is no command for this one: it runs only inside a plugin, and the catalogue could not identify which plugin ships it. The source is linked below.

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 5.1 | $0.00056 | $0.01556 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00028 | $0.00778 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00311 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00156 |
Grade A, and why
vivadicta-transcribe-flow 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.
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 — 122 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
vivadicta transcribe flow
Use this skill to turn an audio file or a YouTube URL into a searchable transcription in the user's VivaDicta history. Covers input-shape detection, blocking vs --async, progress output, and recovery paths.
Preconditions
- VivaDicta.app installed at
/Applications/VivaDicta.appand running (writes require the UI). - User has a transcription model configured (Whisper local, Parakeet local, or a cloud provider with API key in Keychain).
- For YouTube URLs, the app's YouTube transcription is enabled (one of: captions → Apify → yt-dlp → Whisper).
Pick the source and invocation
# Local file, blocking (default) - waits until done, prints the final transcription summary
vivadicta transcribe ~/Downloads/meeting.m4a
# YouTube URL, blocking
vivadicta transcribe "https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ"
# Either source, async - returns the job UUID immediately
vivadicta transcribe ~/Downloads/meeting.m4a --async
Input auto-routes:
| Input shape | Routes to |
|---|---|
http:// / https:// prefix |
transcribe_url (YouTube) |
file:// prefix |
strip scheme, treat as path |
Absolute path (/...), ~/..., ./, ../, or a bare filename that resolves against CWD |
transcribe_file |
- (stdin) |
rejected (not supported in v1) |
Ambiguous or nonexistent paths exit 2 with a clear message.
Blocking vs async
Blocking (default): the command waits up to VIVADICTA_TIMEOUT_SECONDS (default 600) polling every 2 s, then prints the full transcription summary on stdout (same shape as vivadicta get). Progress phase lines stream to stderr: [vivadicta] downloading captions… / [vivadicta] transcribing (parakeet)… / [vivadicta] enhancing (claude)….
Prefer blocking when:
- The next step in the user's request needs the transcript (rewrite, grep, summarize).
- The audio is short (<1 min) or the transcription model is local.
Async (--async): returns a job UUID immediately. Poll with vivadicta job <uuid> when you want status.
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.

vivadicta-transcribe-flow is a skill published in the GitHub repository n0an/vivadicta-cli-skills (6 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 56 tokens to every session and 1,556 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
