What it does

Azure AI Transcription Py is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Azure AI Transcription SDK for Python. Use for real-time and batch speech-to-text transcription with timestamps and diarization.

Its SKILL.md is about 540 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `skill-report.json`).

It sits in Media & Creative, covering Transcription. It works with Microsoft Azure and Python. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • Real-time and batch speech-to-text transcription with timestamps and diarization
  • Tasks that involve Transcription

Example prompts

  • “/azure-ai-transcription-py”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in TRANSCRIPTION_KEY

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Enable diarization when multiple speakers are present
  2. Use batch transcription for long files stored in blob storage
  3. Capture timestamps for subtitle generation
  4. Specify language to improve recognition accuracy
  5. Handle streaming backpressure for real-time transcription
  6. Close transcription sessions when complete

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 44923f3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • pip

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • TRANSCRIPTION_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Azure AI Transcription Py loads about 535 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 39 tokens; SKILL.md has 146 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~39
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~535

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
