Whisper Large V3 Turbo

Transcribe an audio file for me with OpenTranscription, using the model groq/whisper-large-v3-turbo.

Set it up first:
  npm install -g @opentranscription/cli
  ot login
  npx skills add opentranscription/skills

Then run:
  ot transcribe <my-file> --model groq/whisper-large-v3-turbo

Ask me one question at a time, and give me options to pick from rather than open questions. Look for audio files here before asking which one I mean. Leave the language alone unless I tell you what it is, since the model detects it.

The login step opens my browser and waits for me to approve it, so stop and tell me when you reach it. The skill covers the rest.

// npm install @opentranscription/sdk
import { readFile } from 'node:fs/promises';
import { OpenTranscription } from '@opentranscription/sdk';

const ot = new OpenTranscription({ apiKey: process.env.OT_API_KEY! });

// Uploads the audio and opens the job. The signed-URL round trip is inside.
const job = await ot.transcribe({
  file: await readFile('interview.mp3'),
  fileName: 'interview.mp3',
  model: 'groq/whisper-large-v3-turbo',
  language: 'en',
  webhookUrl: 'https://your-app.com/webhooks/ot',
});

// We POST a signed event to that URL when the job finishes: no polling required.
