What This Skill Does

Transcribes audio files to text using OpenAI's transcription models. Supports plain text output and speaker diarization with known-speaker hints for labeled transcripts. Works via a bundled Python CLI with configurable chunking and output formats. Using the bundled CLI with auto-chunking handles long files and multi-speaker labeling in one command, without manually splitting audio or post-processing speaker attribution.
