    submit_transcriptionSubmit a public video or audio URL (YouTube etc.) for verbatim transcription. Returns a job_id immediately. Transcription takes ~1-10 minutes: poll get_job with the job_id every 30-60 seconds until status is 'done', then call get_job with include_transcript=true. Not for private/internal URLs.
    get_jobCheck a transcription job. Returns status (queued / working / done / error) and metadata. Set include_transcript=true only once status is 'done' and you actually need the full text in context - transcripts of long videos are large.
    list_jobsList all transcription jobs on your account, newest first.
    delete_jobPermanently delete a finished (done or errored) transcription job and its stored text. Refused while the job is queued or running. This cannot be undone.
