Wave 2 of the 2026-09-28 design overhaul ("records are the main
character, a quiet instrument"). Decisions: design.md.
- Shell: sidebar with primary Home / Records / Meetings (Ctrl+1..3) and a
secondary "Tools" group; every item is a button with aria-current.
The status bar is removed — its "100% LOCAL PRIVACY · ZERO CLOUD SYNC"
claim contradicted device sync; the sidebar shows only queried state.
- Navigation context (routes, params, back, useRouteRequest) so Home can
open a specific meeting or record.
- Home replaces the dashboard: dictation key, start actions, only real
problems, one-line summary, recent records and meetings, file
transcription, free-tier limits.
- Settings become a full-screen route with vertical tabs (tabs no longer
clip) and a shared row grammar; long-standing bugs fixed: team and
enterprise tiers crashed the license tab (currentTier undefined),
first-run onboarding could not be left, Pro+ saw "upgrade to Pro+".
- Records: date-grouped single list with in-place expansion, search and
tags together, mode/favorite filters, load more past 50, undoable
delete. Meetings: list with search/rename/delete, summary-first detail
(summary | transcript | documents | my notes), notes persisted locally
instead of being lost. Tools pages cleaned up; stale-closure example
chips and a 1550x mouse-distance bug fixed.
- Shared pieces: PageHeader, EmptyStateCard, SearchInput ("/" works),
ConfirmDialog, notify with undo; display-labels maps domain values to
typed i18n keys so missing keys fail to compile.
- Mono font stack falls back to Pretendard for Hangul (Korean labels no
longer render spaced out).
- i18n: new ko/en keys via scripts/i18n-add-keys.mjs (one read-merge-
write so parallel editors cannot clobber locale files).
Some renderer files also carried pre-existing in-flight changes (error
recovery deep links, meeting document hooks); they are included as-is.
Several desktop paths quietly substituted defaults or partial results: a
config write could fall back to a throwaway in-memory store, speech provider
errors were absorbed into empty transcriptions, and meeting exports built
file names from raw titles.
Writes now fail explicitly when the store is unavailable, provider and model
failures reach the UI as errors, and export names pass through one
sanitizer. Settings, license, ad, and support surfaces use the shared theme
tokens, unused hotkey helpers are gone, and the package gains strict
node/renderer typecheck configs plus red-team e2e scenarios for these flows.
