Prepare Vaani 1.2.0 for reliable dictation - #19
Conversation
…hread recordingsPath accepted any string, letting a renderer-supplied value redirect saved WAVs outside the intended directory via relative/parent traversal. isAudioClip scanned every PCM sample synchronously, which could block ipcMain.handle for ~9.6M samples on a 600s clip.

The wayfinder map and its tickets carry unresolved product reasoning, measured failure rates, and quotes from the local dictation corpus. This repo already excludes every planning artifact of that class (docs/, issues/, prd/, graphify-out/), so .wayfinder/ joins them rather than becoming a one-way door in public git history.

Phase 0 of the text pipeline plan. Every later phase changes injected text, so this lands first as the gate. Table-driven suite over JSON fixtures: 49 cases across cleanupText and deterministicFormat, covering fillers, spoken layout, enumerations, number normalization, dictionary hits, both supported snippet trigger forms, and adjacent-duplicate collapse. Fixtures are characterization, not aspiration — they record what the code does today so the suite is green against unmodified src/, with divergences tagged knownBug for a later phase to flip. Three knownBug cases so far: the correction boundary missing closing quotes, adjacent-duplicate collapse running a single pass, and corrections applying sequentially so a shorter rule can rewrite a longer rule's replacement. The last of these was not previously recorded anywhere. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
…setting
Phase 1 of the text pipeline plan.
splitAudioClip cut at a hard 30s boundary, mid-word. It now snaps the boundary
to the minimum-RMS frame within 2s of the nominal end, reusing the rmsFrames
already carried on the clip. Empty rmsFrames or a snap that would not advance
past the chunk start falls back to the hard cut.
The retry loop previously varied only the clip. It now walks an attempt list of
{clip, model}, so a low-confidence result escalates to a stronger model on the
same provider before failing over to a different one. Escalation is table-driven
per provider: groq gets whisper-large-v3, OpenAI and Deepgram have no stronger
tier and contribute no extra attempt.
Adds a global Settings.transcriptionModel, empty meaning provider default.
Global means one setting, not one model id broadcast to every provider: STT
model ids are provider-specific and each provider resolves
`options.model || <its own default>`, so a configured model is applied only
when the current provider declares it. Without that guard, setting the option
would send a Groq model id to OpenAI or Deepgram on failover and break the
failover path silently.
The Whisper vocabulary prompt, Deepgram keyterm, and whisper.cpp initial_prompt
are deliberately untouched — see the plan's Withheld section.

…d bare snippet triggers
Phase 3 of the text pipeline plan.
Corrections move ahead of the LLM: applyCorrections is extracted as an exported
applyDictionary and runs on the raw transcript, so the model sees the corrected
spelling and the content guard compares against corrected text. cleanupText
gains a skipCorrections flag for the post-format pass. Snippets stay
post-format — snippet bodies should not be reworded.
Three matching defects fixed. The correction boundary missed semicolons, colons,
brackets, quotes and hyphens on both sides. Corrections applied sequentially
over accumulating output, so a shorter rule could rewrite part of a longer
rule's replacement; they now resolve overlaps longest-first in a single pass
over the original text. Adjacent-duplicate collapse required 3+ character words
and ran once, so "I I I" survived and "want want want" left two copies; the
floor drops to one character and the pass loops to a fixpoint.
Fuzzy dictionary matching is opt-in per entry and gated five ways: fuzzy: true,
phonetic-key equality via a hand-rolled Double Metaphone, normalized edit
distance under 0.5, absolute edit distance at most 2, and a spoken form of at
least 4 characters. The dictionary is live and its entries are short — the ratio
gate alone permits half a four-character word, so defaulting this on would
inject false corrections immediately.
Bare spoken snippet triggers are opt-in per snippet, guarded by a two-word or
six-character minimum. Defaulting them on was tried and reverted: a length bar
cannot separate a snippet trigger from an ordinary English word, so a snippet
named "address" ate the word in "my address is here". A distinctiveness check
against the user's own history is the missing guard and is still an open design
question, so the default stays off until it exists.
The {{clipboard}} placeholder resolves Electron's clipboard lazily at call time
rather than through a module-scope import, so importing dictation.ts does not
require the binding to link in test environments.
Also adds optional per-entry CustomCorrection fields, snippet date/time/clipboard
placeholders via an injected resolver so cleanup.ts stays pure, and per-app
snippet scoping. hitCount and lastUsedAt are recorded but consumed by nothing.
Dictionary auto-learn is deliberately unchanged — see the plan's Withheld table.
Full suite matches the pre-Phase-0 baseline exactly: 54 failures and 5 errors,
same test names, with 65 new passing tests added.

Records the blocker set found by PR review: stale committed test expectations, provider key deletion on save, dictionary metadata loss, chunked-transcription timeout, and insertion-acceptance false positives. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Saving one provider key resubmitted the whole providerApiKeys array with every other provider redacted to key: "", and the UpdateSettings handler wrote each empty value through CredentialsStore.set, which treats empty as delete. Editing one key silently removed every other provider's credential from the keychain. Key writes now go through dedicated SetProviderApiKey / ClearProviderApiKey IPC channels; UpdateSettings no longer touches credentials at all. Both the settings and onboarding key fields persist on blur instead of on every keystroke, so partial keys are no longer written. Provider "configured" status reads the credentials store rather than the always-empty settings value. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Every settings update carrying customCorrections rewrote each entry to spoken, written, and source: "manual", discarding enabled, caseSensitive, wholeWord, fuzzy, hitCount, and lastUsedAt. Fuzzy matching and disabled rules silently reset on any dictionary edit, and auto-suggested rules were relabelled manual so they could no longer be purged. The sanitizer now validates and preserves each known field, defaulting source to "manual" only for entries that do not already carry one. The renderer keeps an existing entry's source when updating its replacement text. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
macOS delivers zero-filled buffers rather than an error when the running binary has no microphone grant, so a full-length clip of digital silence was rejected as "No speech detected. Try speaking louder", sending users to check their microphone instead of System Settings. Confirmed from user traces: 38824 samples, peakAmplitude 0, silenceRatio 1, rejected as no_speech. The app now requests microphone access at startup when the status is not-determined, and a silent clip captured without a grant fails with a distinct microphone_permission_denied reason naming the Privacy pane. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Chunked transcription runs sequentially but shared one fixed 30s deadline, so a 3-minute dictation (about 7 chunks) failed as "Transcription timed out" on a valid recording, while the abandoned chunk requests kept consuming provider quota. The budget now scales with the expected chunk count under an absolute ceiling, single-chunk clips keep the original 30s behaviour, and no new chunk requests are issued once the deadline passes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The scaled chunk deadline threw "Transcription deadline exceeded.", which the failure handler neither recognised as a timeout nor hid from the user: the raw internal string was shown, and the trace recorded transcription_error instead of timeout, corrupting the failure statistics used to diagnose insertion problems. Deadline errors are now identified by type rather than by matching prose. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Greptile SummaryThis PR prepares Vaani 1.2.0 with permission gating, adaptive transcription deadlines, safer credential and dictionary updates, improved insertion verification, text-pipeline enhancements, and expanded validation.
Confidence Score: 1/5The PR is not safe to merge while full dictated text remains exposed in persisted and exported traces and CI executes mutable action references. Dictations longer than the trace limit still retain their complete injected text through storage and bug-report export, while the new CI workflow resolves executable actions from mutable tags that can be repointed upstream.

When a user dictates more than 500 characters, the complete injectedText is retained in the on-disk trace and included in bug-report exports, exposing content that the snapshot previously bounded. Restore the same limit applied to the other transcript fields. How this was verified: The full cleaned dictation flows into injectedText, while this removed truncation is the last bounding step before trace persistence and export.

The new workflow resolves actions/checkout@v4 and oven-sh/setup-bun@v2 through mutable tags, allowing an upstream tag change to execute unreviewed code with the repository token and alter the build environment. Pin both actions to full commit SHAs. How this was verified: Both executable action references use version tags and run before dependency installation, tests, and packaging.

In @.github/workflows/ci.yml:
- Around line 21-24: Update the actions/checkout@v4 step in the CI workflow to
set persist-credentials to false, while retaining fetch-depth: 0 and the
existing checkout behavior.
In `@CLAUDE.md`:
- Around line 12-13: Update the test-command guidance in CLAUDE.md to recommend
bun run test, matching the package.json script and AGENTS.md; remove the
outdated bun test recommendation while preserving the existing explanation that
this runs Vitest.
In `@src/main/ipc.ts`:
- Around line 82-83: Align isAudioClip’s accepted sample-rate range with
TARGET_SAMPLE_RATE, since recorder output is emitted at 16 kHz and
MAX_AUDIO_SAMPLES is sized for the 600-second limit. Remove acceptance of higher
rates such as 192 kHz, or explicitly reject clips exceeding MAX_AUDIO_SAMPLES
with a recorder failure rather than returning undefined.
In `@src/main/mediaPermissions.ts`:
- Around line 15-16: Update the media permission check around mediaTypes so
undefined and empty lists are denied; grant permission only when mediaTypes is
non-empty and every value is "audio". Add coverage for undefined, [], ["video"],
and ["audio"] inputs.
In `@src/main/nativeBridge.ts`:
- Around line 86-89: The native bridge failure path in loadNativeAddon must not
leave cachedBridge as null after app readiness. Cache the failed load result or
explicitly validate and abort during bootstrap, ensuring delayed
hotkeyManager.register access cannot throw and repeated accesses do not re-probe
candidate paths.
In `@src/main/store/base.ts`:
- Line 19: Update writeJsonFile in src/main/store/base.ts to apply mode 0o700 to
every directory level created by recursive mkdir, while tolerating chmod
failures for pre-existing directories the process does not own. Update
tests/unit/store/base.test.ts to use a target path with at least two created
directory levels and assert 0o700 for each created level.
- Line 28: Update writeJsonFile to make the post-rename chmod operation
non-fatal, matching the existing readJsonFile handling, so chmod failures do not
reject after data has been committed. Preserve the temporary file’s 0o600
creation mode and rename flow.

contains at least one profile ID, while preserving the existing trigger
validation and sorting.
In `@src/renderer/components/OnboardingModal.tsx`:
- Around line 67-73: Update the onboarding API-key inputs and saveProviderKey so
an untouched empty apiKey or llmApiKey does not call clearProviderApiKey; track
whether each field was edited and only persist an empty value after intentional
user clearing. Add an explicit Clear action for existing credentials and apply
the same behavior to both provider-key flows.
In `@src/renderer/components/SettingsModal.tsx`:
- Around line 292-300: Update the transcriptionProvider change handling to reset
transcriptionModel to an empty string, or preserve it only when the newly
selected provider supports that model; ensure the Select in SettingsModal never
persists an invalid provider-model pair. Add a unit test covering switching

- Around line 309-312: Prevent the onBlur handlers for the transcription and
language-model key inputs from calling saveProviderKey when Cancel is being

link for the enumeration duplication defect, while preserving the test
description and assertion unchanged.
In `@tests/unit/phase3.test.ts`:
- Around line 11-21: Update the parameterized tests around applyDictionary to
make fuzzy an explicit table column instead of deriving it from _name. Correct
the two misleading case names and inputs so one case exercises editDistance
greater than two and another uses a normalized distance at or above 0.5 to cover

actions/checkout v4 persist-credentials default README token stored local git config
💡 Result:
In the actions/checkout@v4 action, the persist-credentials input defaults to true [1][2]. When enabled, the action persists the authentication token (typically the GITHUB_TOKEN) into the local Git configuration [3][4]. Specifically, this configuration is written to the repository's.git/config file as an http.https://github.com/.extraheader value [5]. This allows subsequent steps in the same job to execute authenticated Git commands without needing to manually re-configure authentication [3][4]. The token is removed during the post-job cleanup phase [3][4]. If you wish to opt-out of this behavior—for example, to prevent the token from being included if the.git directory is uploaded as a build artifact—you can explicitly set persist-credentials: false in your workflow step [3][5].

Align the IPC sample-rate range with MAX_AUDIO_SAMPLES.
The recorder resamples 48 kHz input to TARGET_SAMPLE_RATE (16 kHz), so a 600-second recording contains 9.6 million samples and passes the current cap. However, isAudioClip accepts sample rates up to 192 kHz; at 48 kHz the cap covers only 208 seconds, and at 192 kHz only 52 seconds. Restrict the accepted sample rate to the emitted format, or reject oversized clips with an explicit recorder failure instead of returning undefined.

For Electron 35.1.5, can MediaAccessPermissionRequest.mediaTypes be omitted for a media permission request?
💡 Result:
In Electron 35.1.5, the mediaTypes property of the MediaAccessPermissionRequest object is documented as optional [1][2]. While it is technically possible for the property to be omitted—or for a permission request to arrive without it—you should be aware of the following technical context: 1. API Specification: Official Electron documentation defines mediaTypes as an optional string[] property [1][2]. 2. Practical Implementation: In practice, Electron's internal permission handling mechanisms generate this details object when a media permission request is triggered [3]. If you are implementing a handler using session.setPermissionRequestHandler, your code should ideally be defensive and handle cases where mediaTypes might be undefined or empty to avoid runtime errors [4]. 3. Known Behaviors: There have been historical instances where Electron triggered permission requests that lacked expected metadata (such as mediaTypes or securityOrigin), requiring developers to handle these cases gracefully to prevent media requests from failing unexpectedly [4]. For robust implementation, ensure your permission handler checks for the existence of the mediaTypes property before attempting to access or iterate over it [2].

Electron 35.1.5 MediaAccessPermissionRequest mediaTypes optional omitted empty array permission request handler official documentation source
💡 Result:
In Electron v35.1.5, the MediaAccessPermissionRequest object, which is passed to the setPermissionRequestHandler session method when a 'media' permission is requested, includes a mediaTypes property [1][2]. According to official Electron documentation, this mediaTypes property is an optional array of strings [1][2]. Each element in the array can be either 'video' or 'audio' [1][2]. Because the property is marked as optional, it may be omitted in the details object provided to the handler [1][2]. If it is omitted or provided as an empty array, it indicates that no specific media type constraints are present in that specific request object [1][2]. When implementing the setPermissionRequestHandler, you should ensure your code safely handles cases where mediaTypes might be undefined or empty to avoid runtime errors when checking for specific media permissions [3]. The underlying Chromium implementation typically populates this array by checking the request's audio and video types (e.g., DEVICE_AUDIO_CAPTURE and DEVICE_VIDEO_CAPTURE) [4]. You should also rely on the details.requestingUrl property for security-sensitive checks rather than the origin parameter, as advised in official security documentation [5].

Reset an unavailable model after a provider change.
Changing transcriptionProvider retains settings.transcriptionModel. If the new provider does not contain that model, this selector shows and persists an invalid provider-model pair.
When the provider changes, reset transcriptionModel to "", or retain it only when the new provider supports it. Add a unit test that switches between providers with different model lists.

Do not save replacement text when the user selects Cancel.
When the user clicks Cancel, the input loses focus before the Cancel handler runs. onBlur then saves sttKey or llmKey before Cancel clears local state. This overwrites the existing credential with the replacement text.
Suppress the blur commit during Cancel, or use an explicit save action for replacement mode.

Document the ASCII-only scope of doubleMetaphone.
clean() removes every character outside A-Z. A token written in a non-Latin script therefore reduces to an empty string, doubleMetaphone returns ["", ""], and phoneticKeysEqual returns false because it requires key.length > 0.
The effect on the caller in src/main/text/cleanup.ts (line 369) is that fuzzy dictionary matching never applies to non-Latin spoken entries. Exact matching still works, so this is a limitation rather than a failure. Add a short comment that states the Latin-script scope, so future callers do not assume language-neutral behavior.

Two case names attribute the rejection to the wrong gate in
fuzzyReplacementCandidates(src/main/text/cleanup.tslines 367-369):"rejects fuzzy ratio above threshold"uses"abcdefgh"against"abcde". The normalized distance is 3/8 = 0.375, which is belowMAX_EDIT_RATIO. TheeditDistancegate (3 > 2) rejects it. No case reaches theMAX_EDIT_RATIO >= 0.5branch, so that gate is untested."rejects fuzzy absolute distance above two"uses"abcdefghij"against"abcdefgh". The distance is 2, which does not exceed the> 2threshold. The phonetic gate rejects it.
Both tests pass for a different reason than their names state, so a regression in either gate can stay hidden.

In `@tests/unit/phase3.test.ts` around lines 11 - 21, Update the parameterized
tests around applyDictionary to make fuzzy an explicit table column instead of
deriving it from _name. Correct the two misleading case names and inputs so one
case exercises editDistance greater than two and another uses a normalized
distance at or above 0.5 to cover MAX_EDIT_RATIO; retain a separate non-opted-in
case with fuzzy disabled.

Why this PR exists
Vaani's core dictation pipeline had become much stronger, but several rough edges still made the app feel unreliable:
This PR prepares Vaani 1.2.0 by fixing those reliability gaps and making failure states easier to understand.
What changes for users
Permissions are clear before recording starts
Vaani now checks Microphone and Accessibility every time it starts.
If either permission is missing:
The app no longer triggers a microphone request before its window and guidance are visible.
Long dictations get enough time
Transcription deadlines now scale with recording length and expected chunk count. Deadline failures are classified as timeouts, so the message shown to the user matches the real problem.
Insertion success is measured correctly
Vaani now compares the text field before and after insertion. Existing matching text no longer causes a false success. Unreadable baselines are recorded separately and excluded from acceptance-rate calculations.
Settings and credentials are safer
Text pipeline improvements
Those advanced Phase 3 options are not yet configurable in the UI. Default user behavior stays unchanged unless they are enabled in the underlying settings.
How I can test it
1. Permission experience
2. Short dictation
Place the cursor in TextEdit and dictate:
Confirm the sentence appears once with sensible punctuation.
3. Technical names
Dictate:
Check names, capitalization, and missing words.
4. Longer passage
Dictate:
Check for omissions, duplicate phrases, early timeout, and cutoff at the end.
5. Insertion verification
Put a known sentence in TextEdit, place the cursor after it, then dictate the same sentence again. Confirm a second copy is inserted rather than Vaani treating the old copy as proof of success.
Verification completed
New PR CI runs the full test suite, typecheck, and macOS package build again.
Scope note
This PR does not merge, tag, or publish the 1.2.0 release. It prepares the branch for review and owner-led speech-to-text UX testing.
