Samuraizer

Turn meeting recordings into transcripts, summaries, action items, and decisions — entirely on your machine. No cloud, no subscriptions, no data leaving your network.

Reference implementation. Samuraizer is the reference implementation of the memnex specification — an open standard for portable meeting outputs (transcripts, summaries, action items, decisions). All outputs conform to memnex v0.2, including a full provenance chain.

Why Samuraizer

  • Fully local. Your recordings never leave your machine.

  • CLI-first. Scriptable, automatable, integrates with cron, Git hooks, Obsidian workflows.

  • Resumable. Crashed mid-pipeline? Re-run picks up where it left off.

  • Fast. LLM stages (summary, action items, decisions) run in parallel, cutting total time by ~2.3×.

  • Model-agnostic. Works with any Ollama-compatible LLM — pick what fits your hardware.

  • Free. No subscriptions, no per-minute pricing.

Portable output with memnex

Samuraizer writes meeting results in the portable memnex v0.2 format. This lets another meeting app, local AI agent, or MCP server consume the same transcript, summary, action items, decisions, and provenance without learning a Samuraizer-specific JSON shape.

To verify a memnex document in under a minute, follow the memnex quickstart. It installs the validator and checks a real v0.2 example end to end.

📦 Packages

This is a monorepo. Samuraizer is published as two npm packages, each with its own README and changelog:

🏛 Project status

  • memnex specification: v0.2 — see the memnex repo for the schema, conformance suite, and governance documents.

  • Schemastore registered. memnex is in the universal JSON Schema catalog (PR #5676). *.memnex.json and meeting-output.json files get IDE autocomplete and validation by default in VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, Neovim, Sublime, and other editors with language-server support.

  • Roadmap: local diarization, cryptographic signing UX, accessibility (WebVTT subtitles), and the path to memnex v1.0 are funded milestones.

🤝 Contributing

Samuraizer follows a BDFL bootstrap model — see the memnex GOVERNANCE.md for the broader project's governance model, which Samuraizer mirrors.

    A3.8/5.0

    Scored across 9 tools

    Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose, from normalization and transcription to summarization, extraction, and meeting management. The separate extraction tools for action items and decisions avoid overlap, and process_recording serves as a composite operation without ambiguity.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case (e.g., normalize_audio, transcribe_audio, list_meetings), making it predictable and easy to understand the function of each tool.

    Tool Count5/5

    With 9 tools, the count is well-suited to the domain of audio processing and meeting summaries. It covers the essential steps of the pipeline and meeting retrieval without being excessively large or minimal.

    Completeness5/5

    The tool set covers the full workflow from raw audio normalization to transcription, summarization, extraction of action items and decisions, and includes a composite processing tool. Retrieval, search, and listing functions complete the necessary operations for managing processed meetings.
