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 | $0.00038 | $0.01057 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00019 | $0.00528 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00211 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00106 |
Grade A, and why
add-voice-transcription scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 12d 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Add Voice Transcription
This skill adds automatic voice message transcription to NanoClaw's WhatsApp channel using OpenAI's Whisper API. When a voice note arrives, it is downloaded, transcribed, and delivered to the agent as [Voice: <transcript>].
Phase 1: Pre-flight
Check if already applied
Check if src/transcription.ts exists. If it does, skip to Phase 3 (Configure). The code changes are already in place.
Ask the user
Use AskUserQuestion to collect information:
AskUserQuestion: Do you have an OpenAI API key for Whisper transcription?
If yes, collect it now. If no, direct them to create one at https://platform.openai.com/api-keys.
Phase 2: Apply Code Changes
Prerequisite: WhatsApp must be installed first (skill/whatsapp merged). This skill modifies WhatsApp channel files.
Ensure WhatsApp fork remote
git remote -v
If whatsapp is missing, add it:
git remote add whatsapp https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw-whatsapp.git
Merge the skill branch
git fetch whatsapp skill/voice-transcription
git merge whatsapp/skill/voice-transcription || {
git checkout --theirs package-lock.json
git add package-lock.json
git merge --continue
}
This merges in:
src/transcription.ts(voice transcription module using OpenAI Whisper)- Voice handling in
src/channels/whatsapp.ts(isVoiceMessage check, transcribeAudioMessage call) - Transcription tests in
src/channels/whatsapp.test.ts openainpm dependency inpackage.jsonOPENAI_API_KEYin.env.example
If the merge reports conflicts, resolve them by reading the conflicted files and understanding the intent of both sides.
Validate code changes
npm install --legacy-peer-deps
npm run build
npx vitest run src/channels/whatsapp.test.ts
All tests must pass and build must be clean before proceeding.
Phase 3: Configure
Get OpenAI API key (if needed)
If the user doesn't have an API key:
I need you to create an OpenAI API key:
- Go to https://platform.openai.com/api-keys
- Click "Create new secret key"
- Give it a name (e.g., "NanoClaw Transcription")
- Copy the key (starts with
sk-)Cost:
$0.006 per minute of audio ($0.003 per typical 30-second voice note)
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.

add-voice-transcription is a skill published in the GitHub repository nanocoai/nanoclaw-whatsapp (10 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 38 tokens to every session and 1,057 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). It is 97% identical to add-voice-transcription, differing in 16 lines, and is treated as a copy.
