Examples
Basic Analysis
cd ~/.claude/skills/transcript-analyzer/scripts && npm run cli -- /path/to/meeting.md -o /path/to/analysis.md
Include Original Transcript
cd ~/.claude/skills/transcript-analyzer/scripts && npm run cli -- /path/to/meeting.md -o /path/to/analysis.md --include-transcript
Extractions Only (No Glossary)
cd ~/.claude/skills/transcript-analyzer/scripts && npm run cli -- /path/to/meeting.md -o /path/to/analysis.md --no-glossary
Analyze Specific Section
To analyze only part of a transcript, extract the section first:
sed -n '50,100p' /path/to/meeting.md > /tmp/section.md
cd ~/.claude/skills/transcript-analyzer/scripts && npm run cli -- /tmp/section.md -o /path/to/section-analysis.md
Output Format
The tool generates markdown with:
-
YAML Frontmatter - Processing metadata:
- chunks processed
- extractions count by type
- new terms discovered
- model used (llama-3.3-70b via Cerebras)
- token usage (input/output/total)
-
Extractions - Categorized findings with confidence scores:
- Each extraction includes speaker (if identified), source snippet, and related terms
-
Glossary - Approved terms from existing glossary + suggested new terms with definitions
