# wersper

Private, self-owned Wispr Flow. Hold **Right ⌥**, speak, release — the
transcription is pasted at your cursor. Everything runs locally on your Mac
(Whisper large-v3-turbo via MLX on the GPU). No cloud, no accounts, no telemetry.

## Run

```sh
uv run wersper.py
```

First run downloads the model (~1.6GB from Hugging Face) and installs deps.

## macOS permissions (one-time)

Grant your terminal app both of these in **System Settings → Privacy & Security**:

- **Microphone** — to record you
- **Accessibility** — to paste into other apps (simulated ⌘V)

## Self-check

```sh
uv run wersper.py --check
```

## Notes

- Pasting overwrites your clipboard with the transcription.
- To change the hotkey or model, edit the constants at the top of `wersper.py`.
