Local speech-to-text using parakeet-cpp-transcribe on Apple Silicon macOS.

bash

{baseDir}/transcribe.sh <audio-file>

The first run downloads the macOS arm64 binary from the latest badlogic/pibot GitHub release into the extension's ignored bin directory:

text

{extensionDir}/bin/parakeet-cpp-transcribe

({extensionDir} is the parent directory of this skill's {baseDir}.) The binary downloads its GGUF model automatically if missing.

Plain text timestamped in 15 second chunks is written to stdout:

text

[00:00-00:15] transcript text
[00:15-00:30] more transcript text

Model/GGML diagnostic logs are written to stderr. Redirect stderr to hide them:

bash

{baseDir}/transcribe.sh <audio-file> 2>/dev/null
