Description
Transcreve arquivos de áudio em português brasileiro para texto, suportando vários formatos e incluindo timestamps.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do exactly what it says: local transcription using OpenAI Whisper. Before installing, consider: (1) Whisper will download model files on first run (can be large and requires network access); (2) you must install FFmpeg separately and ensure the 'inbound' folder path matches the script's computed path (SKILL.md's mkdir path may not match your environment); (3) the script will read and move any audio files placed in that folder and will write JSON transcriptions to an output directory—do not place sensitive audio there unless you are comfortable with it being processed and stored locally; (4) review requirements.txt and install dependencies in an isolated environment (virtualenv/container) to limit systemic impact. I reviewed the provided files and saw no code that exfiltrates data or requests unrelated credentials; if you want extra assurance, run the script in a sandboxed environment and inspect the full (non-truncated) stt_processor.py before production use.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: stt
Version: 1.0.0
The skill provides a legitimate speech-to-text service using the OpenAI Whisper library. The core logic in `stt_processor.py` implements standard file-processing patterns, including monitoring an inbound directory, transcribing audio files, and moving processed files to success/failure folders. No evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or prompt injection was found; the code and instructions in `SKILL.md` are consistent with the stated purpose.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name and description match the included code and SKILL.md: the package implements a Whisper-based transcriber, supports the listed audio formats and timestamps, and saves/moves files as expected. No unrelated credentials, binaries, or config paths are requested.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructions are narrowly scoped to installing Python deps, FFmpeg, creating an inbound folder, and running the script. The script operates on a local media/inbound folder and writes transcriptions to an output directory. Two minor issues to be aware of: (1) SKILL.md asks to create ../../../media/inbound — the script computes a media path relative to the script location (workspace_dir = Path(__file__).parent.parent.parent then .parent / 'media'), so you should verify the exact folder path used in your deployment to avoid missed files; (2) Whisper will download model weights on first run (network and significant disk usage), which is expected but notable.
Install Mechanism
There is no installer in the registry spec; installation is via pip install -r requirements.txt and a separate FFmpeg install. Dependencies come from PyPI and standard package managers — no suspicious external URLs, archive downloads, or extract-on-disk steps are present in the manifest.
Credentials
The skill declares no environment variables or credentials and the code does not read secret env vars. It only reads/writes local filesystem paths (inbound, output, processed/failed). There are no requests for unrelated credentials.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always:true and is user-invocable only. It does not modify other skills or system-wide agent settings. Its runtime behavior (processing local files, saving results) is consistent with its purpose.
