* fix(snap): build and verify payload from locked python inputs
* docs(snap): document locked inputs and artifact verification
* test(clipboard): isolate restore workers between tests
* test(packaging): tighten isolation and clarify snap audit guarantees
* fix(ci): run snap recipe tests on snap-only changes
A change to snap/snapcraft.yaml or snap/local/smoke-test.sh only matched
the snap filter, so the Python tests that guard the recipe (including the
portable whisper.cpp flags from #957) and the smoke script were skipped.
Match all of snap/ in the python filter, as scripts/ already is.
* docs(snap): use a version placeholder in the smoke-test example

* fix(aur): gate source publication on attested sdists
Prepare and verify the canonical release source, build the exact PKGBUILD on Arch, and publish the gated artifact without further rewrites. Part of #701.
* fix(aur): isolate local gate and binary publication
Keep local gate distributions and diagnostics in a private workspace, preserving other build outputs and failed diagnostics. Publish vocalinux-bin after its own AppImage inputs without depending on the source gate or unrelated release jobs. Add regression coverage for both review findings.
* chore(deps): allow uv versions below 0.14
* fix(ci): align uv version and generated exports
* fix(dev): check Fedora build headers and AppImage GI bundle
Fail early with distro-specific native dependency hints before dev sync. Verify the AppImage's PyGObject installation and Python path after linuxdeploy, and report isolated GI import failures with actionable path diagnostics. Guard the CI uv pin and cover both preflights with tests.
* feat(build): add locked reproducible wheel gate
Build independently in clean source trees and virtualenvs, compare wheel bytes, and stage only verified canonical distributions. Safely clean recognized prior outputs on repeat runs.
Part of #701
* ci(release): verify wheel reproducibility before publishing
Run the shared gate in PR and tag workflows, preserve failure diagnostics, and keep verification artifacts out of release checksums. Make Snap Store publication wait for the gate and reuse the canonical distributions for PyPI.
Part of #701
* docs(release): document reproducible wheel validation
Describe the locked toolchain, canonical publication boundary, same-platform scope, diagnostic outputs, and safe automatic cleanup.
* chore(scripts): update executable permissions
* fix(build): isolate release tooling and preserve cleanup retries
Exclude host site-packages from build-only virtualenvs so unlocked setuptools plugins cannot affect verified distributions. Delete staged artifacts before canonical ownership evidence to recover safely from interrupted cleanup.
Add regression tests and document the build-only environment exception.
* fix(release): make reproducible builds retryable and refresh tools
Regenerate release build exports from uv.lock. Hold a checkout lock through cleanup and staging, and atomically rename complete archives into dist. Cover interrupted staging, competing processes, and lock release with regression tests.

* feat(ci): verify the published release, not just the workflow
* fix(ci): filter attestations by predicate, name a missing distribution
Two findings from review on #791.
The attestations query accepted any predicate, so an SBOM would have read as
build provenance while `gh attestation verify`, the command the notes hand
users, rejected the artifact. It now sends the same
`predicate_type=https://slsa.dev/provenance/v1`. Checked on a real digest: the
SLSA filter returns the bundle, a foreign predicate returns 404.
check_pypi compared whatever distributions were left, so a release that lost its
sdist passed on the wheel alone. Each expected suffix is now named when absent.
The lazy urllib import moved past the early return, where it belonged.
The other two findings do not hold. `workflow_run.head_branch` carries the tag
for a tag-triggered run: the last four release runs report v0.16.2, v0.16.1,
v0.16.0 and v0.15.0. And `host_env()` is for the app spawning host binaries out
of an AppImage; `scripts/` is in no `packages` entry and the AppImage build
never references it, so this cannot run from a bundle.
* fix(ci): read release digests from the REST API
gh release view --json assets omits digest on gh 2.46, which is what
many distros ship and what just verify-release often runs, so every
asset failed as undigested. Pull the release through gh api instead,
treat a null body as notes FAIL, and prefer removeprefix for the tag.
* fix(ci): fail verify when PyPI has an extra distribution
Matching release digests alone left a differently named wheel or
sdist on PyPI unchecked. Reject those extras too, same suffixes.
* fix(test): clear tempfile mock before urllib import
Other suites leave a MagicMock in sys.modules['tempfile'], which
breaks urllib.request import with a metaclass conflict in the extra
PyPI distribution check. Drop the stub (and stale urllib modules)
first, and assert the full problem list.
* fix(ci): restore real tempfile before urllib in verify test
The MagicMock tempfile left by recognition_manager still broke
urllib.error on CI. Put the real module back and drop cached urllib
packages before the import.

* feat(ci): gate AUR PKGBUILD builds on every PR
Nothing ever ran makepkg on the PKGBUILD before a tag pushed it to AUR
users, and the channel broke twice that way (#736, #757) — a PKGBUILD
change did not even start a CI job, because no paths filter matched
packaging/aur/**.
The gate (packaging/aur/build-test.sh, run in archlinux:latest — the
AUR is a rolling channel, so the image stays deliberately unpinned):
- swaps the tag-archive source= for a git archive of the checkout under
the same filename and prefix, so build()/package() run unchanged and
the gate answers "does this commit build on Arch"
- installs depends/makedepends from the repos; python-pywhispercpp
(virtual, provided by the AUR backends, #579) and python-pynput (AUR)
are satisfied by a stub so makepkg still verifies the full depends
set, and pip-installed from the hash-pinned requirements/runtime.txt
for the import smoke
- runs namcap on the PKGBUILD and the built package, failing on errors
only (its warnings are noise around lazy imports and virtual depends)
- installs the package and imports the whole UI/recognition stack, plus
the vocalinux --version entry point
Part of #701 (phase 6).

* chore(build): migrate justfile tooling to uv
All recipes now run through 'uv run' against .venv, with a shared
DEV_EXTRAS variable (dev + vad) because uv syncs the environment
exactly and would otherwise uninstall the dev tools between
recipes. 'deps' installs dev+vad; new 'deps-all' covers every
extra. 'build' switches to 'uv build'; 'version' uses --no-sync.
Bump [tool.uv] required-version to >=0.12,<0.13 for uv 0.12.x, and
raise the mypy python_version target to 3.12: mypy 1.19 in the lock
cannot target 3.9 and numpy 2.x stubs need a 3.12 target to parse
(mypy is not run in CI or pre-commit; this only affects 'just
typecheck').
* fix(tests): isolate test runs from real XDG state; fix Arch model-path crash
Local test runs failed en masse (185 failures) while CI stayed
green: tests picked up the developer's real ~/.local/share/vocalinux
models via the default XDG paths and switched IBus/keyboard code
paths through the desktop session env (XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP/
XDG_SESSION_TYPE on GNOME/Wayland, issue #478 branches). conftest
now points XDG base dirs at a throwaway session-wide directory and
clears session variables at import time, mirroring a fresh CI
runner (paths like MODELS_DIR freeze at first import during
collection, so fixture-time isolation is too late).
Also guard the Arch branch of _get_system_model_paths(): it removed
/usr/local/share/vocalinux/models unconditionally and crashed with
ValueError on Arch hosts when a custom XDG_DATA_DIRS never added
that path. Add regression tests, and make the lock-file test assert
the actual $XDG_DATA_HOME/vocalinux contract instead of the
hardcoded ~/.local/share default.
* fix(tests): keep the IBus engine double a plain class
Python 3.14's unittest.mock re-instantiates a user subclass when it builds
child mocks (klass(name=...)). VocalinuxEngine inherits from whatever
IBus.Engine resolves to, and the test module bound that to the MagicMock
class itself, so every engine instantiation raised
TypeError: VocalinuxEngine.__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'name'
on 3.14 while passing on 3.13. Replace it with a plain stand-in class that
still hands out per-instance MagicMocks for the IBus API surface the engine
touches.
The same pattern remains in test_ibus_engine.py, test_ibus_engine_utils.py,
test_ibus_active_engine_guard.py and test_ibus_xkb_wayland.py; those never
instantiate the engine, so they are unaffected for now.
* fix(install): build the venv from the system Python
install.sh looked up a bare `python3` from PATH. Started from an activated
virtualenv — a shell left in uv's .venv after `just deps` — it built venv/
from that interpreter, where distro PyGObject is invisible even with
--system-site-packages, and the run aborted with
Distro PyGObject (python3-gi / python3-gobject) is not importable in the venv.
A mismatched venv/ then survived every retry, because the installer reuses
whatever venv it finds.
- drop an inherited VIRTUAL_ENV (and its bin from PATH) before any
interpreter lookup
- select the interpreter explicitly: $SYSTEM_PYTHON (default
/usr/bin/python3) or PATH python3, preferring one that can import gi,
and create the venv with it instead of `python3`
- recreate venv/ when it was built by a different interpreter
- name the interpreter in the PyGObject guard's error
Documents the two environments (uv's .venv for tooling, venv/ for the
installed app) in CONTRIBUTING, the justfile header and AGENTS.md, and adds
the mismatch symptom to the INSTALL troubleshooting section.
* chore(python): raise the supported floor to 3.11
requires-python promised 3.9 while the CI matrix ran 3.9/3.10/3.11/3.13,
the classifiers advertised up to 3.14, mypy targeted 3.12 and install.sh
enforced 3.9 — five different answers to "which Python does this support".
Settle on 3.11 everywhere: pyproject (requires-python, classifiers, black
targets), install.sh's MIN_VERSION, check-system-deps.sh, the distro package
map, the CI matrix (now 3.11-3.14, matching the classifiers), the release and
nightly workflows, and the docs.
mypy now targets the floor instead of 3.12, so type checking covers what we
promise; numpy 2.x ships stubs in 3.12 syntax that a 3.11 target cannot
parse, so its imports are skipped. (mypy has 71 pre-existing errors either
way; no CI job gates on it.)
uv.lock and the requirements/* exports are regenerated — dropping 3.9/3.10
removes most of the version-conditional resolution branches.
tests/test_python_version_policy.py pins the invariant: install.sh's floor,
requires-python, the classifiers and the CI matrix must agree.
* ci: run lint and tests from uv.lock
The lock file and the hash-pinned exports were not enforced anywhere: CI
still built a venv by hand and installed unpinned `PyGObject` plus
`-e ".[dev,vad]"`, so the tool versions it checked against had nothing to do
with the ones `just lint` uses locally.
Both Python jobs now use astral-sh/setup-uv and run through `uv sync
--locked` / `uv run --locked`, which also fails the build when uv.lock drifts
from pyproject.toml.
Partially covers phase 5 of #701 (tests install from the lock, lock freshness
gate); trusted publishing, artifact checksums and action SHA pinning are
still open there.
* ci: lint from a dedicated dependency group
The lint job failed on this branch: `uv run --extra dev` syncs the whole
project, so it tried to build pyaudio from source on a runner that installs
no system dependencies.
src/pyaudio/device_api.c:9:10: fatal error: portaudio.h: No such file or directory
Move black/isort/flake8 out of the `dev` extra into a `lint` dependency
group. CI runs `uv run --locked --only-group lint`, which installs the three
pure-Python tools and skips the project entirely — no portaudio or
girepository headers needed. `just deps` and DEV_EXTRAS request the group
alongside the dev extras, so the local environment still carries test and
lint tooling at once and `just lint` matches CI version for version.
pre-commit is unaffected: its hooks pin their own tool versions upstream.
* fix(install): never configure an engine the venv cannot import
vosk became an optional extra in #705, but the installer still writes
`"engine": "vosk"` into config.json on the whisper.cpp fallback path even
when installing the extra only produced a warning. config.json also survives
reinstalls — every writer guards on "file does not exist" — so an engine
picked by an earlier attempt outlives the venv that supported it. Either way
Vocalinux dies at startup:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'vosk'
- the fallback now writes the vosk config only when `import vosk` actually
succeeds, and otherwise leaves the engine configuration alone
- a new verify_configured_engine() runs near the end of the install: if
config.json selects vosk and the venv cannot import it, it says so and
prints both fixes instead of leaving a broken install behind
* feat(models): verify every model download against a pinned digest
Pins a sha256/md5 per downloadable speech model in
src/vocalinux/utils/model_checksums.txt and verifies against it in both
install.sh and the runtime downloaders, before the file is moved into place.
Verification fails closed. Covers phase 2.5 of #701; see the PR for details.

Phases 0-1 of #701. Drops dead deps, moves vosk to an optional extra, adds uv.lock and hash-pinned requirements exports, pins pywhispercpp to 1.5.0.
Closes#705. Refs #701.
Stacked bottom of #701. Replaces Makefile with justfile and hardens install.sh (strict mode, logging, HTTP probes, curl -f on model downloads, no v0.10.1-beta fallback).
Closes#700.
