llm-whisper-api. I wanted to run an experiment through the OpenAI Whisper API this morning so I knocked up a very quick plugin for LLM that provides the following interface:

llm install llm-whisper-api
llm whisper-api myfile.mp3 > transcript.txt

It uses the API key that you previously configured using the llm keys set openai command. If you haven't configured one you can pass it as --key XXX instead.

It's a tiny plugin: the source code is here.
