Lines where the two differ have a tinted background and bold values. Where the data itself says which value is better (more marketplaces, a larger figure of the same marketplace, a fresher release, a verified mark on a marketplace that lists both), the better one is also marked green with ▲ and the worse one red with ▼. Where it runs, the transport, the tools, the settings, hooks, the bundle's parts, the licence and the week's changes are marked only as different: more or fewer is not better in itself.
What each says it does
claude-telegram-voice
Voice message transcription for the Telegram channel plugin. When a user sends a voice message, the plugin instructs Claude to automatically download the audio file and transcribe it using a user-configured command (OpenAI Whisper, faster-whisper, whisper.cpp, OpenAI API, or any custom script). Claude then receives the spoken text and responds as if the user typed it. Tool-agnostic: any command that reads an audio file and prints text to stdout works. No modifications to the official Telegram plugin required.
