## プロジェクトの歴史と使われ方

yap is a small macOS command-line transcription tool built around Apple's Speech.framework. It turns local audio, video, microphone input, or live system audio into text, subtitle formats, or JSON without sending the core speech-recognition work to a hosted service.

### プロジェクトの歴史

The public repository was created on 2025-06-15, the same day the first GitHub release, 1.0.0, was published. Its README frames the project around macOS 26 and Apple's on-device Speech.framework, which places it in the wave of local-first media and AI-adjacent command-line tools that appeared as operating systems exposed better speech APIs.

By early 2026 the project had added real-time workflows beyond one-shot file transcription: the README documents `listen` for system audio, `dictate` for microphone input, and `listen-and-dictate` for mixed meeting-style transcription.

### 採用の歴史

yap's adoption story is still young and mostly package-manager/toolbox adoption rather than platform adoption. Its upstream README lists Homebrew and Mint installation, and the GitHub repository had more than a thousand stars by July 2026, enough signal for a niche macOS CLI but not enough history for a long institutional narrative.

### 使われ方

Users run `yap transcribe` or the shorter `yap <file>` style workflows to convert audio or video to text, SRT, WebVTT, or JSON. The README also shows package-nerd-friendly pipelines: downloading audio with yt-dlp, piping transcripts into an LLM, or producing caption files for video.

The live modes make it useful as a terminal-native dictation and meeting transcription tool, with macOS Screen Recording and Microphone permissions as the practical trust boundary.

### パッケージ好きにとっての重要性

yap is significant as a thin, scriptable wrapper over a native macOS speech-recognition stack. For package nerds, the interesting part is not a new speech model but the packaging of platform speech APIs into composable Unix-style commands and text/subtitle outputs.

### タイムライン

- 2025-06-15: GitHub repository is created and release 1.0.0 is published.
- 2026-02-15: Release 1.2.0 is published.
- 2026: README documents file transcription, live system audio transcription, microphone dictation, and combined listen-and-dictate workflows.

### Related projects

- Apple Speech.framework is the native macOS speech-recognition API used by yap.
- yt-dlp and llm appear in upstream examples as common pipeline companions.
