One of 10 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.
The health check reported that no Whisper model files were found in my ~/.minutes/models/ directory. Rather than installing openai-whisper via pip, what standard setup command should I run to download the balanced default model?
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| Recommends executing minutes setup --model small | Missed | Passed |
The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Run a health check on the Minutes installation to confirm everything is working.
Run the verification script included with this skill:
bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/minutes-verify/scripts/verify-setup.sh"
The script checks each component and outputs a pass/fail status for each. Read the output and report results to the user.
| Check | What it verifies |
|---|---|
| Binary | minutes command exists on PATH |
| Model | At least one whisper model downloaded in ~/.minutes/models/ or ~/.cache/whisper/ |
| Meetings dir | ~/meetings/ directory exists |
| Memos dir | ~/meetings/memos/ directory exists |
| PID state | No stale PID file in ~/.minutes/recording.pid |
| Audio input | CLI-context audio input visibility (macOS only; desktop readiness is authoritative for the signed app) |
| Config | ~/.config/minutes/config.toml exists (optional — defaults work fine) |
| Spotlight privacy | macOS .metadata_never_index markers exist for ~/.minutes and ~/meetings when those directories exist |
If any checks fail, tell the user exactly what to do:
cargo build --release in the minutes repo, then add to PATHminutes setup --model small (recommended) or --model tiny (faster, lower quality)mkdir -p ~/meetings/memos — will also be created on first recordingrm ~/.minutes/recording.pid — previous recording crashed without cleanupminutes setup so Minutes can recreate the .metadata_never_index markers.test cases passed, vs 8 / 19 without
