The LLM runtime has been quiet since it shipped in Phase 3 — users
had no surface-level signal that cleanup was loaded, warming, or
actively generating. Settings has verbose status text internally,
but a dictation-flow user never opens Settings during a run.
New: a shared $state store drives a small chip in the sidebar that
reflects the true LLM state in ≤500 ms of any transition (brief
item #31 acceptance). Five states:
off → hidden (user has aiTier === "off")
warming → model download or first load in flight; amber pulse
ready → loaded + idle; green dot
generating → cleanup_transcript_text_cmd or
extract_tasks_from_transcript_cmd in flight; accent
pulse with Sparkles icon
error → last operation failed; red dot with AlertTriangle
The store exposes three calls: refreshLlmStatus(aiTier) (polls the
backend), markGenerating(detail) / markGenerationDone(success).
DictationPage wraps its cleanup + extract calls in mark-generating
pairs. SettingsPage's LLM load / unload / delete / download paths
also refresh the global store so Settings-initiated transitions
surface in the sidebar immediately. The chip collapses to a
dot-only compact form when the sidebar is collapsed.
No backend changes — everything wires onto the existing
`get_llm_status` Tauri command.

Adds src/lib/utils/hotkeyValidity.ts with validateHotkey(combo, os)
and wires it into HotkeyRecorder.svelte. Rules:
- X11/Wayland/Linux: reject single-key combos unless the trigger
is F13..F24 (the conventional global-shortcut escape hatch).
- Windows: reject combos whose only modifier is a right-hand
variant (RCtrl/RAlt) — matches Handy #966's failure mode where
RegisterHotKey silently ignores them.
- macOS: reject Fn-only combos and bare-key combos (non-function
keys).
- unknown OS: pass through — better to ship a flawed combo than
reject one we can't validate.
When validation fails, the recorder leaves the previous known-good
hotkey intact and surfaces an inline warning-coloured sentence
explaining why, with actionable copy ("add a modifier", "use the
left-hand equivalent", etc.). The save button disappears because
settings.globalHotkey is never written to — no state drift.
Matches Handy #917 / #1019 / #966 / #956, brief item #5.

webkit2gtk under KDE Wayland does not set e.metaKey on subsequent events
after the compositor intercepts Super — but the Super keydown itself is
still delivered with e.key === "Super". Track pressed modifiers from
raw keydown/keyup and OR with the webkit booleans so combos like Super+E
(which OpenWhispr already registers successfully via evdev) can now be
captured in Kon's recorder.

Three correctness fixes to the hotkey recorder based on dogfood logs:
1. Modifier set now includes Super / OS / Hyper (webkit2gtk on Linux
fires e.key === "Super" for the Windows key — previously that key
got captured as the final trigger, producing invalid 'Ctrl+Shift+Super'
strings the evdev parser rejected).
2. resolveTriggerKey() uses e.code (physical, shift-independent key)
to resolve shifted punctuation back to the unshifted name the evdev
parser understands: '+' -> '=', '|' -> '\\', etc. Letters and digits
also use e.code (KeyA -> A, Digit1 -> 1) to avoid layout quirks.
3. Numpad keys intentionally not mapped to main-keyboard equivalents —
they are distinct evdev codes. Leaves the parser to reject them so
the user gets a toast instead of a silently-wrong binding.
Registration failures now surface as a toast and revert
settings.globalHotkey to the last successfully-registered value (if
any), so the UI cannot lie about what is actually bound.

Wholesale JS -> TS migration of the frontend — stores, utils, actions,
and all Svelte component scripts adopt type annotations. Compile-time
surfaces (app.d.ts, lib/types/) added for shared DTO types.
Build plumbing:
- package.json: dev:frontend script that runs svelte-kit sync first
- tauri.conf.json: beforeDevCommand points at dev:frontend
- run.sh: dropped the sed-hack that temporarily blanked beforeDevCommand;
now relies on npm run dev:frontend to avoid double-Vite
- jsconfig.json: allowImportingTsExtensions
Preserves all Group 1 behaviour:
- page.svelte.ts keeps loadHistory / loadTasks Tauri-first, no
localStorage; saveTranscriptMeta + mapTranscriptRow + mapTaskRow
intact; update_task_cmd and update_transcript_meta_cmd invocations
carry the correct payload shape.
- Toasts, preferences stores typed without behaviour change.
- Viewer still routes segment edits through saveTranscriptMeta; the
Task 1.5 TODO markers are gone.
taskExtractor.ts is functionally improved during the migration:
- multi-task matches in the same sentence
- list-style shopping-verb expansion (get bread, milk, and cheese)

@tailwindcss/vite:generate:serve threw 'Invalid declaration:
getCurrentWindow' on ResizeHandles.svelte?svelte&type=style&lang.css
even after comment sanitisation. The style block is plain CSS with no
Tailwind directives, but the per-component virtual CSS module route
was hitting a parse bug in the Tailwind v4 + Svelte 5 combination.
Workaround: move the CSS into app.css (class names are already
component-specific, no scoping loss) and drop the component-local
<style> block. This sidesteps the virtual-module route entirely.

Follow-up to 92ac7ea. Two apostrophes remained (KWin's and don't)
that kept tripping Tailwind v4 JIT the same way. Removed.

Follow-up to d1d344b. Tailwind's scanner still saw backtick-quoted
fragments like `decorations: false` and `position: fixed` in the
script comments as CSS property declarations, tripping on the next
JS identifier (getCurrentWindow). Removing all backticks from the
comment block sidesteps the entire scanner path.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Tailwind v4 JIT scanner mis-tokenised the comment 'Tauri`s `data-tauri-drag-region`'
as an unterminated string literal, breaking dev-server HMR. Comment rewritten
to avoid apostrophes near backticks. No behaviour change.

Second dogfood sprint. Headline fix: Linux now uses native KWin/Mutter
decorations instead of fragile frameless `startResizeDragging`, which
collapsed diagonal corner resize to a single axis and made drag feel
laggy. macOS / Windows keep custom chrome via `useCustomChrome` gate.
Other changes:
- Cross-window preferences sync via `kon:preferences-changed` Tauri
event — theme and font changes propagate live to float/viewer.
- Hotkey recorder rewritten to use capture-phase document listener
gated by $effect; button focus was unreliable in webkit2gtk.
- History page redesigned for cognitive-load hygiene: title-first
compact row, inline title input, Edit popout opening /viewer in
edit mode, clipboard export as .md with YAML frontmatter, manual
tag chips + + Add tag input, header tag filter (cap 7), global
Starred filter, `tag:xyz` search syntax.
- `deriveAutoTags` kept as empty hook for post-Task-7 LLM topic tags;
research found all previous auto-tag chips redundant with row UI.
- Viewer window adds edit mode with debounced-save textarea; native
title renamed to "Kon - Transcription Editor".
- Window minimums updated per GNOME HIG + WCAG reflow research:
main 960x600, float 360x480, editor 560x520.
- Microphone picker filters raw ALSA strings (hw:, plughw:, front:,
sysdefault:, null) and dedupes by CARD=X. New `description` field
on DeviceInfo reads /proc/asound/cards so Blue Yeti shows as "Blue
Microphones" instead of the short "Microphones" card name.
- GPU reporting fixed: get_runtime_capabilities now returns
accelerators=[cpu,vulkan] and whisper.supports_gpu=true, matching
the transcribe-rs whisper-vulkan feature linked unconditionally.
- ResizeHandles kept for macOS/Windows frameless: 12px edges, 20px
corners via CSS vars, pointerdown + setPointerCapture, corners
above edges in z-order, rendered as sibling (not child) of the
animated layout root so `position: fixed` is viewport-relative.
- Dueling drag-region handlers removed — `data-tauri-drag-region` and
manual `startDragging()` were stacked on the same elements; kept
the manual handler which has the button/input early-return logic.

textMeasure.js, virtualList.js, and accessibilityTypography.js were
added in the 2026/04/04 session alongside VirtualSegmentList.svelte but
never committed. All four are imported from DictationPage, HistoryPage,
SettingsPage, and the viewer — a fresh clone had unresolvable imports.
textMeasure.js: pretext-backed text measurement with LRU cache.
measureTextHeight, measurePreWrap, clampTextLines, invalidateCache.
virtualList.js: binary-search visible range for variable-height virtual
lists. buildCumulativeOffsets + findVisibleRange.
accessibilityTypography.js: pretext font/line-height helpers that read
the user's accessibility preference store (Lexend / Atkinson /
OpenDyslexic mapping).
VirtualSegmentList.svelte: virtualised transcript segment renderer used
by the viewer page; depends on all three utils above.

THE PROBLEM (Codex review + architecture-review.md §1, §14):
Multiple critical paths discard errors silently — `let _ = insert_transcript(...)`,
`.catch(() => {})`, inline `error = ...` state that not every page surfaces. ND
users in particular need explicit feedback when something fails; silent
failure is worse than no feature.
SHIPPED:
src/lib/stores/toasts.svelte.js (new):
- Minimal in-house toast store (~80 lines, no svelte-french-toast dep)
- Severity → palette: info/success → moss, warn → signal, error → ember
- Auto-dismiss durations per severity (success 3s, info 4s, warn 6s,
error sticky)
- `invokeWithToast(invoke, command, args, errorTitle?)` helper wraps a
Tauri invoke and toasts on failure while still throwing for callers
that need to handle the error themselves
src/lib/components/ToastViewport.svelte (new):
- Reads from the toasts store
- Bottom-right stack, max-width clamp on small screens
- aria-live=polite + role=alert on error toasts (screen-reader friendly)
- Slide-in animation honours `html.reduce-motion` for the existing
preferences toggle
- Severity left-border in brand colours via existing CSS variables
src/routes/+layout.svelte:
- Mounts <ToastViewport /> once at the app root so toasts work from any
page or window
src/lib/pages/DictationPage.svelte:
- First error-toast wiring: failures starting recording now show a
sticky toast in addition to the inline `error` panel
- Replaces a previously easy-to-miss failure-mode
NEXT (Day 4 batch):
- Wire toasts into FilesPage, HistoryPage, SettingsPage, ModelDownloader
(all currently swallow errors)
- Add `add_transcript`, `list_transcripts`, `update_transcript` (closes the
long-standing TODO Codex flagged), `delete_transcript` Tauri commands
wrapping the existing storage layer
- Switch addToHistory to dual-write (localStorage + SQLite) so the
canonical store catches up with the actual transcript flow
- FTS5 transcripts_fts virtual table + search command
- Wrap multi-row writes (decompose_and_store) in DB transactions
prevTaskIds was declared as $state, causing the $effect that writes to
it to re-trigger itself infinitely (effect_update_depth_exceeded). The
variable is just a comparison reference — doesn't need to be reactive.
Changed to a plain let.
Also removed debug event loggers and reverted grain z-index.

- Add sidebarCollapsed to settings defaults (persists via localStorage on saveSettings)
- Sidebar collapses to 48px icons-only view with smooth 200ms transition
- Toggle button (chevron) at top of nav; [ keyboard shortcut in layout (input-safe)
- Auto-collapse on window resize below 900px (checked on mount and on resize event)
- Titlebar left spacer tracks sidebar width reactively (48px / 210px)
- All labels, profile selector, status text hidden in collapsed mode; nav items show tooltips via title attribute
