AssemblyAI Skills
Official agent skill for AssemblyAI transcription and voice AI APIs.
About
assemblyai-skill is the official agent skill repository from AssemblyAI, covering its speech-to-text and voice AI surfaces: async transcription, short-form sync, Streaming v3 WebSocket, and the Voice Agent API, plus the LLM Gateway for structured extraction from transcripts. The skill teaches mode selection across these surfaces, a discovery-then-recommend workflow, and documents failure modes that produce no error, such as 401s with a valid key or empty transcripts.
The repo is actively updated against AssemblyAI API spec changes, with recent commits tracking Voice Agent hold mode, LLM Gateway reasoning parameters, and EU endpoint moves. It is Python-oriented and includes reference docs for the API, streaming, voice agents, and the LLM gateway. Note the catalog also carries a separate AssemblyAI product entry; this skill entry covers only the agent-facing skill repo.
