Department 2 — Transcriber
Primary  : Groq API (Whisper large-v3 on H100) — free 14,400s/day
Fallback : faster-whisper large-v3 int8 (local CPU)

FIXES APPLIED:
  - Pre-process audio to 16kHz mono WAV before Groq (~15% accuracy gain)
  - Added exponential backoff retry on Groq rate limit (429)
  - vad_parameters now includes speech_pad_ms=400 to avoid cutting word starts
  - Chunked offset: fixed in-place mutation bug + extend→append fix
  - Unsupported Groq languages (te, kn) fall back to auto-detect gracefully
  - Verified Groq supported language list used as gate
