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.

# Kon Handover — 2026/04/18
|
|
|
|
## Current state
|
|
|
|
Phase 1 brand migration and Phase 2 polish are both **complete and committed**. Today was the first dogfood attempt — Vulkan GPU build is in progress but not yet confirmed working. Three bugs were caught and fixed during the first launch attempt.
|
|
|
|
## What's working
|
|
|
|
- **18/18 automated validation checks pass** (Playwright, `python3 /tmp/kon_validation.py`)
|
|
- **Pre-warm fixed** — `tauri::async_runtime::spawn` instead of `tokio::spawn`; model loads in background before first dictation
|
|
- **Preferences infinite loop fixed** — `Object.assign` mutation instead of object reassignment; Svelte 5 module state now stable
|
|
- **DOM hydration fixed** — `applyToDOM` called on store init so `data-theme` is always set, even without Tauri webview injection
|
|
- **Vulkan feature flag committed** — `whisper-vulkan` in `crates/transcription/Cargo.toml`
|
|
- **`docs/dev-setup.md`** — authoritative dependency and launch reference
|
|
|
|
## What's left
|
|
|
|
### Immediate — Vulkan GPU build
|
|
Vulkan build was not yet confirmed. Three system packages needed before it will compile:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo dnf install vulkan-headers vulkan-loader-devel glslc
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then launch:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd /home/jake/Documents/CORBEL-Projects/kon
|
|
LIBCLANG_PATH=/usr/lib64/llvm21/lib64 npm run tauri dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Confirm GPU active in startup logs:
|
|
```
|
|
whisper_backend_init_gpu: device 0: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Manual validation (requires running app)
|
|
Three items from the validation checklist that need real Tauri runtime:
|
|
- [ ] Persistence test — set non-default zone/font, close, relaunch, verify zero flash
|
|
- [ ] Cross-window preferences — open float/viewer windows, check they hydrate correctly
|
|
- [ ] 90-second onboarding — fresh-model launch, first dictation under 90s
|
|
|
|
### Pre-release (before any build beyond Jake's machine)
|
|
- [ ] Updater signing key — `tauri signer generate`, public key → `tauri.conf.json`, private key → CI secrets
|
|
- [ ] ggml dedup — plan at `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-04-18-kon-ggml-dedup.md`, Option A (system-ggml shared lib), execute at Phase 3
|
|
|
|
## Gotchas discovered today
|
|
|
|
| Issue | Fix |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `libclang` not on PATH | `set -Ux LIBCLANG_PATH /usr/lib64/llvm21/lib64` |
|
|
| `tokio::spawn` panics in Tauri `setup()` | Use `tauri::async_runtime::spawn` — Tokio runtime isn't live yet during setup |
|
|
| Svelte 5 `$effect` infinite loop on `updatePreferences` | Module-level `$state` must be mutated (`Object.assign`), never reassigned — stale references break loop guards |
|
|
| Duplicate theme sync `$effect` in both `+layout.svelte` and `SettingsPage.svelte` | Removed from SettingsPage — layout handles it |
|
|
| Vulkan build needs dev headers + shader compiler | `sudo dnf install vulkan-headers vulkan-loader-devel glslc` |
|

## Resume prompt
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Picking up Kon dogfooding from the 2026/04/18 session.
|
|
HANDOVER is at HANDOVER.md in the project root.
|
|
First job: confirm Vulkan GPU build compiles and check startup logs for RTX 4070.
|
|
Then run the three manual validation items from the handover.
|
|
