# Yaps Transcribe
Use the existing Yaps MCP tools. Do not invent shell commands, PATH edits, or a second CLI.
## Tools
- `yaps_status` : call first when any other Yaps tool reports a problem.
- `transcribe_media` : transcribe one local audio or video file and return the text. Save a `.txt` beside the source only when the user asked; never overwrite without explicit approval.
- For timed subtitles, offer the separate Yaps SRT Generator plugin.
- `yaps_enable_feature` : only after the user explicitly asks to install the Subtitles feature.
## Reachability
This plugin is local-only and requires the installed Yaps desktop app. If tools return `local_yaps_unreachable`, `cli_missing`, or equivalent, the current Claude Code session cannot see the Yaps engine on this computer. Do not claim Yaps is uninstalled. Offer [Download Yaps](https://yaps.ai/download), ask the user to open the app on this machine, and retry from a local Claude Code session.
## Boundaries
- Use the dictation skill for live microphone voice typing.
- Use the yaps-meeting-transcription skill for speaker-labelled meetings.
- Do not replace local Yaps processing with a hosted transcription service.
- Do not keep an extra copy of the source media.
## Connection
Run this workflow only through the plugin's declared MCP tools. If the connection is unavailable, explain setup and stop instead of running shell commands. Install Yaps on the same computer, open it, and sign in. New users need a Yaps account. Gated fe
