FAQ

How does this skill improve my developer workflow?

It eliminates the need to switch between your terminal and GUI-based recording apps. By integrating audio capture into your AI-assisted workflow, you can quickly document meetings and keep recordings organized with automated timestamps and custom labels.

When should I use this Claude Code skill?

You should use this skill whenever you need to record meetings, one-on-one conversations, or voice notes while working. It is specifically triggered by commands like 'start recording', 'capture meeting audio', or 'list records'.

Can I play back recordings directly through Claude?

Yes, the skill includes integrated playback functionality. You can ask Claude to 'play the last recording' or search for a specific session by its label, and it will use mplayer to stream the audio directly from your command line.

What does the Audio Recorder skill do?

The Audio Recorder skill enables Claude Code to manage high-quality audio recordings directly from your terminal. It uses 'sox' for capture and 'mplayer' for playback, allowing you to start, stop, label, and organize recordings without leaving your coding environment.

What file format and storage system does it use?

All recordings are encoded in high-quality OGG Vorbis format using sox. Files are automatically saved to '~/Downloads/Records/' with a structured naming convention: YYYY-mm-dd_HH:MM:SS_label.ogg.
