whisper-cpp (Local Whisper STT for OpenClaw)

This skill sets up local whisper.cpp STT for inbound Telegram voice notes.

Dependencies

You need build tools (git, cmake, compiler toolchain) + curl and ffmpeg (to decode Telegram OGG/Opus β†’ WAV).

Install

From this skill directory: bash scripts/install_whisper_cpp.sh bash scripts/download_models.sh bash scripts/install_wrapper.sh bash scripts/patch_openclaw_audio.sh Send a Telegram voice note to test.

Model choice

This setup uses ggml Whisper models stored in ~/.cache/whisper. Common model names you can download: tiny, base, small, medium large-v1, large-v2, large-v3 (bigger/slower, usually more accurate) By default we download: base + small. To download specific models: bash scripts/download_models.sh tiny base small For the OpenClaw wrapper, you can select: OPENCLAW_WHISPER_MODEL=small openclaw-whisper-stt /path/to/audio Default language: auto-detect (OPENCLAW_WHISPER_LANG=auto) Force a language (example): OPENCLAW_WHISPER_LANG=en openclaw-whisper-stt /path/to/audio Models are stored in: ~/.cache/whisper.

Cleanup (optional)

After install (whisper-cli + libs are in ~/.local/): bash scripts/cleanup_build.sh

Troubleshooting

Confirm OpenClaw is using the wrapper: which openclaw-whisper-stt openclaw config get tools.media.audio.models Test the wrapper directly: openclaw-whisper-stt /path/to/audio.ogg OPENCLAW_WHISPER_MODEL=small openclaw-whisper-stt /path/to/audio.ogg Follow gateway logs while sending a Telegram voice note: openclaw logs --follow

Files

Wrapper source: bin/openclaw-whisper-stt.sh (linked to ~/.local/bin/openclaw-whisper-stt) OpenClaw config patcher: scripts/patch_openclaw_audio.sh

Category context
