Kon's ideology rule: raw Whisper output is the source of truth; LLM
cleanup is additive, never destructive. The preview overlay already
tracks both rawText and finalText across the listening → live →
cleanup → final phases — but until now the user had no one-click path
from final to raw if cleanup changed their meaning.
Frontend: a context-aware "Use raw" / "Copy raw" button appears in
the preview overlay's final phase, only when rawText and finalText
actually differ (Raw format mode or LLM-off leaves the button hidden).
Two behaviours depending on how the transcript reached the target:
- settings.autoPaste = true → invoke paste_text_replacing, which
sends the platform's undo keystroke to the focused app,
waits UNDO_PASTE_GAP_MS (60 ms) for the compositor / app to
process it, then pastes the raw transcript. The preview hides
itself beforehand so the keystroke doesn't race focus
(existing Wayland-hardening path).
- settings.autoPaste = false → nothing was pasted in the first
place, so just overwrite the clipboard with raw. User's own
paste yields raw.
Backend: new paste_text_replacing Tauri command plus a mirror of the
paste-backend matrix for undo (wtype -M ctrl z / xdotool key ctrl+z /
ydotool keycodes 29:1 44:1 44:0 29:0 / osascript cmd+z / SendKeys '^z').
Reuses the pick_linux_backend_order Wayland-vs-X11 preference.
Registered in the Tauri command handler.
Acceptance per the brief: "after paste, Ctrl+Z within 5 s replaces
LLM output with raw transcript" — satisfied via the 4 s auto-hide
window on the preview's final phase. The click extends auto-hide so
the user actually sees the confirmation.
