Export podcast episodes as clean local text transcripts

Tries official transcripts and subtitles first, then falls back to local speech recognition, eliminating manual downloading and copy-pasting. Produces a metadata file with every run so you know exactly how each transcript was sourced and what to proofread.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQPage Schema
How to install podcast-transcript-txt-skill?

Run `npx skills add KingJing1/podcast-transcript-txt-skill --all -g -y` in your terminal to install the skill globally.

How to get a podcast transcript as a text file?

Give the skill a YouTube link, episode page, Apple Podcasts title, or plain episode title, and it exports a clean .txt file plus a .meta.json diagnostics file.

What happens when no official transcript exists?

The skill falls back in order: platform subtitles, visible page text, then local speech recognition with faster-whisper, so you still get a usable draft transcript.

Is the transcript ready to publish directly?

No. ASR-based output is a working draft, so you should run one proofreading pass to fix names, terms, and punctuation before publishing.

Does it upload my audio to third-party services?

No. Speech recognition runs locally on your machine with faster-whisper, and private audio is never sent to external transcription services.
