- Replaced all Bun.which() calls with $which() utility from @oh-my-pi/pi-utils across 22 files.
- Removed findBashOnPath() wrapper function from procmgr.ts, consolidating binary path resolution.
- Updated AGENTS.md documentation to reflect new $which() API usage pattern.
- Centralized binary detection logic through shared utility, reducing code duplication.
- Added animated microphone icon with color cycling during voice recording and transcription states.
- Added support for discovering skills via symbolic links in the skills directory.
- Changed STT status messages to display via state change callbacks instead of dedicated status line segment.
- Removed dedicated STT status line segment in favor of animated cursor-based feedback.
- Added cursor override feature to TUI editor for customizing end-of-text cursor glyph with ANSI-styled strings.
Cross-platform audio recording with automatic tool detection and
fallback chain (SoX > FFmpeg > arecord > PowerShell mciSendString).
Transcription via Python openai-whisper with automatic pip install
on first use.
Recording:
- SoX with explicit waveaudio device on Windows (-t waveaudio 0)
- FFmpeg with auto-detected dshow device name on Windows
- arecord for ALSA on Linux
- PowerShell mciSendString as zero-dependency Windows fallback
- Process health check after spawn, graceful stop for FFmpeg/PS
- Fallback chain: if one tool fails, tries the next automatically
Transcription:
- Python openai-whisper as primary backend (pip install openai-whisper)
- Custom WAV loader in transcribe.py using Python wave module
- Resamples to 16kHz mono via numpy (no ffmpeg dependency)
- Passes float32 numpy array directly to whisper.transcribe()
- 120s timeout with process kill guard
TUI integration:
- Alt+H keybinding to toggle recording (configurable in keybindings)
- /stt command with on|off|status|setup subcommands
- Status line segment showing REC/STT state
- Transcribed text inserted directly into editor prompt
- Lazy controller instantiation on first use
Settings:
- stt.enabled (default: false)
- stt.language (default: en)
- stt.modelName (default: base.en)
