Needs uv and ffmpeg. The first run downloads the speech model (about 470 MB).

In this release

• Local transcription with whisper.cpp (English), keeping every um and uh
• Delete words and the video skips them; removed parts fold into a label with the seconds saved
• Trim fillers and Tighten pauses in one go, then Tab through the edits to listen
• Stray sounds: jump to voice the transcript has no word for, and decide
• Nudge any join by 10 ms, fix misheard words, Clean audio to -14 LUFS
• Export MP4, WAV, SRT/VTT, or FCPXML for Final Cut Pro and DaVinci Resolve
• MCP server: a coding agent reads the transcript and suggests removals with a reason; you approve them in the editor
