What This Skill Does

Transcribes short audio files (up to 60 seconds) using Azure's Speech to Text REST API in Python. No SDK required — just HTTP requests with an API key and region. Supports WAV and OGG formats, multiple languages, and both simple and detailed response formats. Using the REST API directly avoids the Speech SDK dependency and setup overhead, making it practical for lightweight scripts, containers, or environments where installing the full SDK is impractical.
