Poll GhostMinutes for transcription progress and results using job_id returned by transcribe_audio_url.
AI agents call get_transcription_status to retrieve information from GhostMinutes MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves transcription status information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It is purely a read operation that queries the state of a previously submitted job. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius if misused — an agent polling status repeatedly has negligible impact.
From the tool's definition Tool is described as 'Poll GhostMinutes for transcription progress and results' — polling is a retrieval operation with no side effects. The tool only queries the status of an existing transcription job identified by job_id.
