Openai Whisper Andy27725
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.
Overview
This skill coherently wraps the local Whisper speech-to-text CLI, with no evidence of hidden code, credentials, or unsafe behavior.
This appears safe for its stated purpose. Before installing, confirm you trust the Homebrew `openai-whisper` package and remember that Whisper may download model files into your local cache on first use.

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.
Installing the skill may install the Whisper CLI and its package dependencies through Homebrew.
The skill relies on installing an external Homebrew formula. This is aligned with the stated Whisper CLI purpose, but it is still an external supply-chain dependency.
brew | formula: openai-whisper | creates binaries: whisper
Install only if you are comfortable with the Homebrew `openai-whisper` package source and normal package-manager updates.
The first run may use disk space in your home cache directory for Whisper model files.
The skill discloses local persistence of downloaded model files. This is expected for local Whisper operation and is not evidence of hidden background behavior.
Models download to `~/.cache/whisper` on first run.
Be aware of the cache location and remove `~/.cache/whisper` later if you no longer want the local models.
