#1

uv scripts for HF Jobs org

Adds a new UV script that wraps kb-labb/easytranscriber to produce word-level timestamps via VAD → Cohere/Whisper ASR → wav2vec2 forced alignment.

Changes

  • easytranscriber-transcribe.py — new script. Default backend is Cohere Transcribe 2B (same model as cohere-transcribe.py) but adds per-word timing. --backend {cohere,ct2,hf} switchable; --emit-txt / --emit-srt for side-files.
  • README.md — new script row in Scripts table, per-script Options table, separate Benchmarks block.

Benchmark (L4, 66-file CBS Suspense, 33 h audio)

  • 46.2 min wall, 42.9x realtime
  • 42,633 segments / 295,468 words
  • Cost ~$0.62

Notes

  • Bundles static-ffmpeg in deps — HF Jobs base images lack the ffmpeg binary that easyaligner shells out to.
  • Cohere backend requires transformers>=5.4.0 (pinned).
  • Silero VAD is the default (no auth); --vad pyannote available for users who've accepted pyannote terms.
