Analyze and operate a production AssemblyAI pre-recorded pipeline with explicit models, Speech Understanding, callbacks, and retention controls. Use when running asynchronous transcription. Trigger with "AssemblyAI async transcription" or "pre-recorded pipeline".

Why this skill is useful

Adds executable scripts for async transcription with advanced audio intelligence features that aren't in public docs.

What it needs

What this skill does

AssemblyAI Governed Pre-recorded Pipeline Overview Operate pre-recorded transcription as an auditable asynchronous job. Keep live audio, credentials, spend, retention, and destructive state as separately governed boundaries. Prerequisites The target repository or integration path and the requested operator outcome. The AssemblyAI project, environment, region, data classification, and accountable owner. Current first-party documentation plus credentials only for a narrowly approved live check. Current Contract Submit to /v2/transcript with explicit speechmodels; complete by bounded polling or authenticated webhook, then retrieve by transcript ID. Verify every intelligence, redaction, language, and prompting parameter against the selected current model. Route new LLM analysis to LLM Gateway, not deprecated transcript summary parameters. Authentication For live work, inject ASSEMBLYAIAPIKEY from an approved secret manager and send the raw value only in the AssemblyAI Authorization header to the configured first-party host. Never print, commit, place in a URL, or expose it to an untrusted client. Callback secrets and temporary streaming tokens are separate credentials. Instructions 1. Confirm consent, purpose, region, language, and model policy. 2. Request only supported, approved transcription and understanding features. 3. Deliver audio without exposing storage credentials. 4. Persist transcript ID and an internal dedupe key after one submission. 5. Validate terminal status, duration, model, and redaction before release. 6. Propagate retention and deletion to every downstream copy. Tool Discipline Use Read, Glob, and Grep to inspect repository code, configuration, fixtures, and evidence. Use Write and Edit only for approved implementation or documentation changes. Do not call AssemblyAI, upload audio, open a streaming session, mint a token, replay a callback, deploy, rotate a key, or delete a transcript merely because this skill was invoked. …
