Audio Tldr

Summarize videos, audio files, and podcasts into key takeaways. Give it a YouTube/podcast URL or a local audio/video file — it transcribes locally (cached; repeat requests reuse the transcript) and distills the transcript into key points, summaries, or translations. Use when the user asks to summarize, get key points from, translate, or TL;DR any audio or video content.

From the SKILL.md

# audio-tldr

Turn any video / audio / podcast into key takeaways + a summary. Two-phase design: transcription is cached on disk, so re-summarizing (or summarizing from a different angle) reuses the cached transcript instead of re-transcribing.

## User preferences (read first)

If `~/.config/audio-tldr/preferences.md` exists, read it before anything else — it holds the
user's standing habits. Settings there override the defaults below; a missing file or missing
field means "use the default". All fields are optional, written as `key: value` lines:

| field | default | meaning |
|-------|---------|---------|
| `output_dir` | `./audio-tldr-output` | folder where digest files are saved (Phase 2) |
| `timeline` | `on` | `on` = include a timeline section when the content warrants it; `off` = never include one |
| `auto_delete_audio` | `on` | `on` = downloaded audio is deleted after transcription; `off` = pass `--keep-audio` in Phase 1 so the mp3 stays in the cache entry |
| `output_format` | `md` | digest file format, `md` or `html`; an explicit per-request choice always wins over this field |
| `model` | `large-v3-turbo` | whisper model for Phase 1 — when set, pass it as `--model <value>`; an explicit per-request model always wins over this field |
| `digest_model` | (platform default) | model for the Phase 2 digest — four modes, see "Digest model resolution" below |
