New iOS-first companion (Expo SDK 54 + NativeWind v4) with three tabs:
Captures (the hero — floating gold mic, live mic-meter waveform,
expand-row playback), Generate (profile picker + speak + autoplay +
recent), and Voices (searchable profile list).
Pairing (V0): backend mints a one-time token, mobile scans/pastes the
voicebox:// URL, server returns a long-lived bearer it stores only as a
SHA-256 hash. Bearer-or-loopback auth applied to every user-data router
so binding 0.0.0.0 doesn't leak existing endpoints. Loopback callers
(the desktop app) keep their friction-free access.
Desktop Settings → Mobile pane: live host picker (LAN / Tailscale auto-
detected via the App-bundle binary path on macOS), QR rendering,
5-minute expiry countdown, copyable URL fallback, paired-device list
with revoke. Auto-closes when a new device pairs.
just dev now binds the backend to 0.0.0.0 so paired phones can reach
it — and just setup-python pins mlx-audio==0.4.1 + mlx-lm so fresh
Apple Silicon worktrees get a working STT path on first install.
Ships the Capture release end to end. Global-hotkey dictation with
synthetic paste into the focused app on macOS and Windows, an on-screen
pill across recording / transcribing / refining, customizable push-to-
talk and toggle chords, and an accessibility-permission prompt scoped to
Settings → Captures with inline re-check feedback.
Voice profiles gain optional personalities that power compose / rewrite /
respond actions via a local Qwen3 LLM — shared with refinement, so there
is one local LLM in the app, not two.
Refinement hardened with deterministic Whisper-loop collapse before the
LLM sees the transcript, per-capture flag snapshots for re-runs, and a
ten-transcript evaluation harness across every bundled refinement size.
Version bump 0.4.5 → 0.5.0.

- Rename Server tab to Settings with horizontal sub-tab navigation (General, Generation, GPU, Logs, Changelog)
- All sub-tabs are proper routes under /settings/* with /server redirect for backwards compat
- General: connection settings, link cards (docs + discord), API reference card, app updates
- Generation: auto-chunking, crossfade, normalize, autoplay as SettingRow components
- GPU: info card with platform-aware icons (Apple logo for MPS), CUDA management, explainer text
- Logs: real-time server log viewer piped from Tauri sidecar via event system (Tauri-only)
- Changelog: parsed from CHANGELOG.md at build time via Vite virtual module plugin
- New reusable SettingRow/SettingSection components for consistent settings layout
- New Toggle (switch) UI component replacing checkboxes in settings
- Toast viewport now offsets when audio player is open
- Sidebar stays active on settings sub-routes (fuzzy matching)
Adds a full effects pipeline powered by Spotify's pedalboard library,
enabling users to apply professional DSP effects (flanger, reverb, delay,
compressor, pitch shift, filters, gain) to generated audio.
Key features:
- Effects chain editor with drag-and-drop reordering (dnd-kit)
- Generation versions: clean copy always saved, processed versions created on top
- Built-in presets (Robotic, Radio, Echo Chamber, Deep Voice) + custom user presets
- Per-profile default effects chain (auto-applied to new generations)
- Per-generation effects override from the generation form
- Apply effects to existing generations from history (creates new version)
- Ephemeral preview endpoint for auditioning effects without persisting
- Dedicated Effects sidebar tab with preset management and live preview
- Version switcher in history cards with expandable panel
- Backward-compatible: existing generations backfilled as clean versions
Generations now return immediately with a 'generating' status and appear
in history right away. TTS runs in a serial background queue to avoid
GPU contention. Users can kick off multiple generations without blocking.
- Async POST /generate creates DB record immediately, queues TTS work
- Serial generation queue prevents concurrent GPU access (Metal/CUDA/CPU)
- SSE endpoint GET /generate/{id}/status for real-time completion tracking
- Retry endpoint POST /generate/{id}/retry for failed generations
- Store engine and model_size on generation records for retry support
- History cards show animated loader (react-loaders) for generating/playing
- Failed generations show retry button instead of actions menu
- Model downloads happen inline in the queue instead of rejecting with 202
- Stale 'generating' records marked as failed on server startup
- Autoplay on generate setting (default: on)
- Show engine name on generation cards
- Remove sidebar generation spinner
- Checkbox alignment fix in settings
- Replaced direct Tauri API calls with a unified platform context across multiple components, enhancing code maintainability and readability.
- Removed the deprecated tauri.ts file, consolidating platform-related logic into the new PlatformContext.
- Updated components such as App, AudioPlayer, and ServerSettings to utilize the new platform context for lifecycle management and server interactions.
- Improved platform detection and handling for audio playback and system audio capture functionalities.
- Ensured consistent error handling and user feedback across the application when interacting with platform-specific features.
- Introduced story management functionality, including creating, listing, and managing story items.
- Added new components for story display and interaction, including StoriesTab, StoryList, and StoryContent.
- Integrated drag-and-drop functionality for reordering story items using @dnd-kit.
- Updated dependencies for @dnd-kit packages to enhance drag-and-drop capabilities.
- Bumped version for @voicebox/app, @voicebox/landing, @voicebox/tauri, and @voicebox/web to 0.1.5.
- Enhanced audio playback features to support story mode with auto-play functionality.
- Improved error handling and user feedback through toast notifications in story-related actions.
- Bumped version for @voicebox/app, @voicebox/landing, @voicebox/tauri, and @voicebox/web to 0.1.4.
- Added @tanstack/react-router dependency for enhanced routing capabilities.
- Refactored App component to utilize RouterProvider for routing management.
- Created a new router configuration in router.tsx to define application routes and layout.
- Updated Sidebar component to use Link from @tanstack/react-router for navigation.
