# Parakeet MLX (CLI) Use `parakeet-mlx` to transcribe audio locally on Apple Silicon. Quick start - `parakeet-mlx /path/audio.mp3 --output-format txt` - `parakeet-mlx /path/audio.m4a --output-format vtt --highlight-words` - `parakeet-mlx *.mp3 --output-format all` Notes - Install CLI with: `uv tool install parakeet-mlx -U` (not `uv add` or `pip install`) - Use `parakeet-mlx --help` to see all options (`--help`, not `-h`). - Models download from Hugging Face to `~/.cache/huggingface` on first run. - Default model: `mlx-community/parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v3` (optimized for Apple Silicon). - Requires `ffmpeg` installed for audio processing. - Output formats: txt, srt, vtt, json, or all. - Use `--verbose` for detailed progress and confidence scores. - Accepts multiple files (shell wildcards like `*.mp3` work).
