* fix(models): correct download size metadata for whisper.cpp and VOSK
The size_mb values in WHISPERCPP_MODEL_INFO were using parameter counts instead of actual download sizes, causing the UI to display incorrect sizes (e.g., showing 39 MB when actual download is 74 MB). Updated all whisper.cpp models with verified sizes from Hugging Face and adjusted VOSK medium/large sizes to better represent actual downloads.
Ultraworked with [Sisyphus](https://github.com/code-yeongyu/oh-my-openagent)
* docs: update model download sizes to match actual downloads
Update whisper.cpp size references from parameter counts to verified download sizes (e.g., tiny: 39MB → 74MB, medium: 769MB → 1.5GB, large: 1.5GB → 3.0GB).
Ultraworked with [Sisyphus](https://github.com/code-yeongyu/oh-my-openagent)
* docs(web): update model sizes across website pages
Sync whisper.cpp size references on gpu-acceleration, compare, whisper-model-guide, offline, and homepage with corrected download sizes.

* feat(vad): replace amplitude-based VAD with Silero neural network
Replace the simple amplitude threshold VAD with Silero VAD, a lightweight
neural network model that classifies audio as speech/non-speech. This
addresses the root cause of #302 (silence not stopping recording) and
- Add silero_vad.py wrapper using ONNX Runtime with bundled Silero v5 model
- Accumulate 512-sample chunks with 64-sample context window per official API
- Map existing vad_sensitivity (1-5) to Silero thresholds (0.8-0.3)
- Use max() across sub-chunks to avoid missing speech onsets
- Fall back to amplitude VAD when onnxruntime is unavailable
- Add onnxruntime as optional dependency (pip install vocalinux[vad])
Closes#344
* address review: add tests, LICENSE, logging, validation fixes
- Add unit tests for SileroVAD (process, reset, fallback, sensitivity mapping)
- Add MIT LICENSE for bundled Silero VAD model in data/
- Log which VAD backend is active on init
- Validate chunk length in SileroVAD.process()
- Skip is_speech check until a full Silero chunk is processed
- Add thread safety note to SileroVAD docstring
- Document resampling rate effect on VAD resolution
- Comment explaining why load_silero_vad() catches broad Exception
* address review: bundle license, document [vad] extra, surface backend in UI
- Pack data/LICENSE into the wheel (pyproject package-data) so attribution
travels with the model
- README: short note on enabling neural VAD via vocalinux[vad]
- Settings: VAD Sensitivity row subtitle shows the active backend; if
onnxruntime is missing, an info-row beneath the group spells out the
install command and the restart requirement
- silero_vad.is_silero_available() probes onnxruntime + model presence
w/o instantiating an InferenceSession
- CI installs .[dev,vad] so Silero paths get exercised
- Integration test for _record_audio Silero branch (mocked pyaudio +
scripted SileroVAD), covering silence flush, speech reset, and
sensitivity threshold mapping at sens=1 vs sens=5
- Tests no longer skip when other modules globally mock numpy: pop the
top-level numpy ref so a fresh import gives the real package, and
swap sys.modules["numpy"] inside the _record_audio call so the lazy
import inside the function picks up real numpy too
* fix(vad): drop silence-only recording buffers
* test(vad): align stop buffer expectations
* test(vad): preserve real numpy module
* fix(install): install vad support opportunistically
* test(vad): cover recognition manager vad edges

* chore: bump minimum Python from 3.8 to 3.9 and adopt PEP 585 builtins
- Update requires-python, classifiers, mypy target, and black target in pyproject.toml
- Replace Python 3.8 with 3.9 in CI matrix and nightly workflow
- Replace typing.List/Dict/Tuple/Set with builtin list/dict/tuple/set (PEP 585)
- Update all 3.8 version references in README, docs, website, and install.sh
- Fix test_wayland_no_tools to mock IBus availability
- Remove List from common_types re-exports and update test
* style: reformat test files for Black 26.x and pin version in CI
Black 26.x introduced parenthesized context manager formatting.
Reformat 7 test files and pin Black>=26,<27 in CI to prevent
future drift from unpinned version upgrades.
The install.sh on main now dynamically resolves the latest release tag
via GitHub API (merged in PR #313), so pinning to a specific release tag
in install commands is no longer needed — and was causing users to run
the old hardcoded installer.
Update all curl install command URLs across docs, code, and website from
versioned tags (v0.9.0-beta, v0.8.0-beta) to main/install.sh:
- README.md (4 URLs + note text)
- docs/INSTALL.md (2 URLs + note text)
- docs/UPDATE.md (2 URLs)
- docs/DISTRO_COMPATIBILITY.md (1 URL)
- tests/distro-testing-checklist.md (1 URL)
- src/vocalinux/main.py (1 URL)
- web/src/app/page.tsx (remove dynamic release fetch, hardcode main)
* chore(release): prepare v0.9.0-beta
- Bump version from 0.8.0-beta to 0.9.0-beta
- Update README What's New section with new features and bug fixes
- Update all install script URLs to v0.9.0-beta
- Add v0.9.0-beta What's New section to docs/UPDATE.md
- Update SECURITY.md supported versions (0.9.x supported, 0.8.x dropped)
- Update website schema softwareVersion and nav badge to 0.9.0
- Update website featureList with new sound effects and clipboard features
- Add v0.9.0-beta entry to changelog page
- Update web/package.json version to 0.9.0
- Add v0.9.0-beta row to RELEASE_PROCESS.md version history
* docs(readme): add contributors avatar grid via contrib.rocks
* feat(about): add Changelog link to About dialog
* Revert "feat(about): add Changelog link to About dialog"
This reverts commit 15e0984f516caccb14a0609e96d5fb6870ea247e.

* docs: update version history in RELEASE_PROCESS.md
Add entries for 0.6.0-beta through 0.7.0-beta to the version history table.
* feat(ui): add auto-start on boot support
- Add --start-minimized CLI flag for autostart entry
- Create autostart_manager.py to handle XDG autostart desktop entry
- Add autostart config option in config_manager.py
- Add Start on Login toggle in Settings dialog

- Add Start on Login checkbox in system tray menu
- Add first-run dialog to ask about autostart preference
Closes#184
* fix(test): add first_run: False to mock config settings
The tests were failing with StopIteration because main() now checks
for first_run and shows a dialog if True. By setting first_run: False
in the mock config, we skip the first-run dialog code path.
* fix(ui): harden autostart behavior across Linux sessions
Use XDG-compliant autostart paths and robust Exec command resolution, keep first-run prompt semantics correct, and fix GTK toggle handling so state changes are applied reliably.
* docs(autostart): document XDG startup model and limits
Clarify that Vocalinux uses desktop-session XDG autostart, not systemd services, and explain compatibility expectations for mainstream DEs versus minimal/custom WM sessions.
* feat(ui): add first-run quick-start guidance text
Expand the welcome dialog with concise first-time usage guidance and clear direction to the tray menu Settings entry while preserving the existing autostart decision flow.
* fix(uninstall): remove XDG autostart desktop entry
Ensure uninstall removes ~/.config autostart registration and reports leftover autostart entries during verification.
* fix(install): ignore defunct processes in running-check
Filter installer process detection to exclude defunct entries and installer/uninstaller shells so stale zombie rows do not block reinstall.
* fix(uninstall): ignore defunct processes in running-check
Use filtered process detection so zombie entries and installer shells do not trigger false running-process warnings during uninstall.
* chore(release): prepare v0.6.3-beta
- Fix#220: Installer default tag now points to correct version
- Update version from 0.6.2-beta to 0.6.3-beta
- Update documentation version references

* fix: clean up whitespace in filtered package list
---------
Co-authored-by: Claude Opus <noreply@anthropic.com>
The v0.3.0-alpha release was created before the --tag feature was
added to install.sh, so installing from that tag fails with "Unknown
option: --tag=v0.3.0-alpha".
Solution: Always download install.sh from main (which has --tag support)
and pass the release tag as a parameter. This ensures users get a working
installer that can install the specific stable release.
Changes:
- web/src/app/page.tsx: Download from main instead of ${latestRelease}
- README.md: Update install commands to download from main
- docs/INSTALL.md: Update install command
- .github/workflows/release.yml: Update release notes
* fix: Use latest release tag for install commands instead of main branch
The web install commands previously pointed to install.sh from the main branch,
which could be unstable/untested code. Now they dynamically fetch the latest
release tag from GitHub API and use that for the install script URLs.
Changes:
- Add getInstallCommands() function that takes a release tag
- Add latestRelease state that fetches from GitHub releases API
- Update all install commands to use the fetched release tag
- Fallback to 'main' if GitHub API fails
* docs: Update README and docs to use latest release tag
Also update GitHub release workflow to use the release tag dynamically.
Changes:
- README.md: Update install commands to use v0.3.0-alpha tag
- docs/INSTALL.md: Update install command to use v0.3.0-alpha tag
- .github/workflows/release.yml: Use ${{ github.ref_name }} for install URL
- Add note pointing to GitHub Releases for latest version

Add support for French, German, and Russian languages in both VOSK and Whisper engines.
- Adds language configuration to config system
- Adds --language command-line argument
- Creates vosk_model_info.py utility for model mapping
- Supports en-us, fr, de, ru languages
- Merged with latest main including PR #70 (Debian 13+ appindicator fix)
Co-Authored-by: Artem Lytvynov <violog@users.noreply.github.com>
* feat: Make Whisper tiny the default engine and download during install
- Changed default engine from 'vosk' to 'whisper' in config_manager.py
- Changed default model_size from 'small' to 'tiny' in config_manager.py
- Added install_whisper_model() function to install.sh that downloads
the Whisper tiny model (~75MB) during installation
- Whisper model is downloaded when Whisper package is installed
(in non-interactive mode or with --with-whisper flag)
- Updated installation summary to show Whisper model status
- Updated documentation (README.md, INSTALL.md, SECURITY.md, USER_GUIDE.md)
to reflect Whisper tiny as the default engine
This provides a better out-of-box experience: users can install and
immediately use Vocalinux without any additional downloads or prompts.
* test: Update test to reflect whisper as default engine
- INSTALL.md: Add curl install as recommended, add --no-whisper flag
- CONTRIBUTING.md: Fix activation instructions for source installs
- README.md: Fix development setup to use venv/bin/activate
All docs now reflect:
- curl | bash installs Whisper by default
- --no-whisper for faster VOSK-only install
- Correct venv activation paths
* feat: prepare for v0.2.0-alpha release
* feat: prepare for v0.2.0-alpha release
* chore: remove CHANGELOG.md, use GitHub Releases instead
* refactor: use existing About dialog instead of Settings section
* style: enhance About dialog UI readability
* style: fix formatting with black and isort
* feat: show VAD and silence timeout settings for Whisper engine
- Renamed 'VOSK Settings' to 'Recognition Settings'
- VAD Sensitivity and Silence Timeout now apply to both engines
- Added tooltips explaining each setting
- VOSK-specific model info only shown when VOSK selected
* fix: resolve overlapping UI elements in settings dialog
* fix: save VAD and silence timeout settings for both engines
Previously these settings were only saved when VOSK was selected.
Now they persist correctly for Whisper as well.
* fix: show download progress when selecting undownloaded model
Previously when auto-applying settings, models would download silently
in the background without showing the progress dialog. Now:
- Download progress dialog appears for undownloaded models
- Model icons update correctly after download completes
* feat: add download progress, speed, ETA and cancel button
- Show real download progress percentage for VOSK models
- Display download speed (MB/s) and estimated time remaining
- Add Cancel button to abort downloads
- Update status during extraction phase
- Whisper downloads still pulse (uses internal downloader)
* fix: defer model download until needed, don't block startup
- App now starts instantly even if models aren't downloaded
- Models are downloaded on-demand when selected in Settings
- If user tries to dictate without a model, plays error sound
- Added model_ready property to check if engine is usable
* fix: improve first-run UX without downloaded models
- Settings dialog now defaults to smallest available model, not saved config
- Only show saved model if it's actually downloaded
- Add desktop notification when trying to dictate without a model
- Prevents auto-downloading large models on first launch
* feat: add download progress tracking for Whisper models
- Implement custom Whisper model download with progress/speed/ETA
- Uses OpenAI's CDN URLs directly instead of whisper.load_model()
- Progress callback works the same as VOSK downloads
- Supports cancellation during download
* fix: enable download progress callback for Whisper models
Progress callback was only being set for VOSK downloads, not Whisper.
Now both engines show real-time progress, speed, and ETA.
* fix: update tests for defer_download and config manager mocking
- test_main: Mock ConfigManager to prevent saved config from overriding test values
- test_settings_dialog: Mock ModelDownloadDialog to prevent GTK init errors
- test_speech_recognition: Use proper MockVoskModule class instead of MagicMock, pass defer_download=False for download test
- test_whisper_support: Pass defer_download=False to trigger model loading in test
* fix: resolve test failures for CI
- test_main: Fix ConfigManager patch path to use source module
- test_settings_dialog: Mock _is_vosk_model_downloaded and _is_whisper_model_downloaded to skip download flow, add missing dialog attributes
- test_speech_recognition: Replace recognizer with properly configured mock that returns valid JSON, fixing test isolation issues when running all tests together
* fix: mock _download_whisper_model in whisper test to avoid requests exception handling issue
* fix: add gir1.2-girepository-2.0 dep for PyGObject on Ubuntu 24.04
- Add missing girepository-2.0 package for newer Ubuntu runners
- Use --no-build-isolation for PyGObject to use system packages
* fix: skip PyGObject pip install, use system python3-gi package
- Use --no-deps for editable install to skip PyGObject
- Install other deps explicitly without PyGObject
- Add python3-gi-cairo for complete GTK support
- Removes problematic girepository-2.0 build requirement
* fix: install PyGObject via pip with proper build deps
- Remove python3-gi/python3-gi-cairo (doesn't work with setup-python)
- Install PyGObject from pip after installing build dependencies
- Simplify venv setup without --system-site-packages hack
* Fix GObject
* fix: set GI_TYPELIB_PATH for pip-installed PyGObject to find AppIndicator3
* Implement custom icon for Vocalinux (Closes#10)
* Fix system tray icon display issue
* Temp commit before purging
* refactor: restructure project into proper vocalinux package
* test: fix and improve audio_feedback and tray_indicator tests with proper mocking and isolation
* test: update import paths in test files to use the new package structure
* Remove icon background
* fix: implement robust resource path discovery in audio_feedback module
* fix: improve resource discovery across application for consistent icon and sound loading
* chore: ensure uninstall script is compatible with new resource paths
* Fix black formatting
