## Description

Local speech-to-text for macOS (CLI + MCP) — whisper.cpp statically linked against Metal, so no API key, no ffmpeg, and no audio leaving the machine. Defaults to large-v3-turbo, measured on-machine to beat the Japanese-specialised alternative even on Japanese; VAD gating suppresses hallucinations over silence
