Check Speechnotes Job Status

You need to know if a long job finished. Call `get_transcription_status` with a job ID, and your agent gets the current progress. This is crucial for building multi-step workflows. It's faster than constantly polling an old API endpoint. You just check the status once when you need it, giving you clear data on whether the transcription process stalled or completed successfully.

Transcribe Audio Files with Speechnotes

Want to turn a remote audio file into text? Use `transcribe_audio_url`. Your agent passes the URL, and the MCP Server handles the transcription. You get back the job ID immediately so you can track it later. This function works on files hosted anywhere, keeping your local machine clear. It’s perfect when a client sends audio via Dropbox or an S3 bucket and you don't want to download anything.

Manage Webhooks and Endpoints

You can verify Speechnotes delivery endpoints using `list_configured_webhooks`. This tells you exactly where the server is set up to send results when a job finishes. It's good for debugging integration issues. Need to change where notifications go? You can use `remove_transcription_job` if you want to wipe out old job records, or `list_transcription_history` to see every past activity.
