File contents

case.dev Transcription

Audio and video transcription with speaker diarization, ideal for depositions, hearings, and recorded proceedings. Supports MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, OGG, WEBM, and MP4 up to 5GB.

Requires the casedev CLI. See setup skill for installation and auth.

Start a Transcription

The source file must be in a vault:

casedev transcribe run --vault VAULT_ID --object OBJECT_ID --json

Flags: --speaker-labels (diarization), --speakers-expected N, --language, --format, --auto-highlights.

Check Status

casedev transcribe status TRANSCRIPTION_ID --json

Statuses: queued -> processing -> completed or failed.

Get Result

casedev transcribe result TRANSCRIPTION_ID --json

Fetches transcript text. Fails if the job is not yet completed.

Watch Until Complete

casedev transcribe watch TRANSCRIPTION_ID --json

Flags: --interval (default: 3s), --timeout (default: 900s).

Common Workflow

# 1. Upload to vault
casedev vault object upload ./deposition-recording.mp3 --vault VAULT_ID --json

# 2. Start transcription with speaker labels
casedev transcribe run --vault VAULT_ID --object OBJECT_ID --speaker-labels --speakers-expected 4 --json

# 3. Watch until complete
casedev transcribe watch TRANSCRIPTION_ID --json

Troubleshooting

"Invalid file type for transcribe": Only audio/video MIME types accepted. Check with casedev vault object list.

Transcription failed: Check casedev transcribe status TRANSCRIPTION_ID --json for error details. Common causes: corrupted file, unsupported codec, file too large.

Long audio (2+ hours): Increase timeout with --timeout 3600.
