whisper-remote

Two separate Python packages live in this repo:

• backend/: FastAPI wrapper around the upstream whisper CLI
• cli/: local whisper-remote command that forwards work to the remote API

Backend

cd backend
pip install -e .
uvicorn whisper_remote_backend.server:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000

The backend machine must already have the upstream whisper CLI available on PATH.

CLI

cd cli
pip install -e .
export WHISPER_REMOTE=http://your-server:8000
whisper-remote ./audio.mp3 --model base --language en --output-format txt

By default the CLI prints the transcript to stdout. Use --to-file to save the returned transcript locally.
