audio-srt-workflow（音频 srt 工作流程）

Audio SRT Workflow

Use this skill for end-to-end subtitle work.

This package is self-contained for runtime entrypoints:

• scripts/align_to_srt.py
• scripts/gui_app.py
• scripts/srt_stats.py
• scripts/make_preview_mp4.py
• scripts/requirements.txt

Scope

• Mode A: audio + reference text -> aligned SRT
• Mode B: audio only -> auto subtitle SRT
• Timing QA with srt_stats.py
• Burned preview generation with make_preview_mp4.py

Inputs To Collect First

1. Audio path (wav, mp3, m4a, ...)
2. Whether a reference transcript is available
3. Output SRT path (or output directory)
4. Language hint (zh, en, ...)
5. Preferred run style: CLI, GUI, or Python API

Decision Rule

• If transcript exists, run Mode A (align_to_srt.py --text ...).
• If transcript does not exist, run Mode B via GUI or Python API (run_auto_subtitle_pipeline).

Workflow

1. Validate environment and paths.
2. Choose Mode A or Mode B by transcript availability.
3. Run subtitle generation from packaged scripts.
4. Run timing diagnostics (srt_stats.py).
5. If needed, render a preview mp4 with burned subtitles.

Resolve Skill Script Path

Set a local variable to your installed skill directory.

Codex default path:

SKILL_DIR="${CODEX_HOME:-$HOME/.codex}/skills/audio-srt-workflow"

OpenClaw/ClawHub install path example:

SKILL_DIR="<your-workdir>/skills/audio-srt-workflow"

Environment Checks

Run these checks before execution:

python3 --version
ffmpeg -version
python3 -c "import faster_whisper; print('ok')"

If faster-whisper import fails:

# Review dependencies before installing:
cat "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/requirements.txt"
pip install -r "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/requirements.txt"

Mode A Command Template (Audio + Transcript)

python3 "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/align_to_srt.py" \
  --audio "<input_audio>" \
  --text "<transcript_txt>" \
  --output "<output_srt>" \
  --model small \
  --language zh

Mode B Command Template (Audio Only)

GUI:

python3 "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/gui_app.py"

Or use Python API in scripts:

• Build config with build_alignment_config(...)
• Run run_auto_subtitle_pipeline(...)

See command details in references/command-templates.md.

QA And Preview

Timing stats:

python3 "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/srt_stats.py" --srt "<output_srt>"

Preview video:

python3 "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/make_preview_mp4.py" \
  --audio "<input_audio>" \
  --srt "<output_srt>" \
  --output "<preview_mp4>"

Output Conventions

• Default output uses .srt extension.
• Prefer dated naming for batch runs (for example output_YYYYMMDD.srt).
• Keep intermediate checks in a separate folder from final delivery files.

Notes

• For Chinese output (zh), the pipeline strips commas/periods only.
• If timings look off, inspect waveform snap related arguments before changing model size.
• This skill requires explicit invocation (allow_implicit_invocation: false).
