Unify PiP recovery across startup and foreground transitions, surface actionable status, and add privacy-safe analytics plus the refreshed onboarding and account experience. Update documentation assets and advance the release build to 84.
Introduce optional Apple account-backed credits with scoped gateway access while preserving local and BYOK paths. Refresh assistant behavior, tests, privacy disclosures, docs, and the website for the 2.0 experience.
Merge dictation and AI controls into one assistant surface, preserve safe insertion and clipboard actions, and align settings and tests with the new flow.
Add save-to-Notes export and direct map handoff while aligning multi-touch typing, period shortcuts, return actions, and navigation visuals with system behavior.
Rotate AI idle suggestions with optional remote packs, move history/dictionary onto self-sizing Home preview cards, harden clipboard capture/prompting, and simplify keyboard chrome by dropping most liquid-glass shadows.
Ship optional keyboard clipboard history with settings, suggestion strip, and paste-permission guidance; let undo roll back clipboard inserts; bump build to 64.
Add the AI keyboard tab, Agent settings, and user-owned LLM key path for 1.7.0, including streaming answers and web-search transports without the built-in DeepSeek fallback.
Adapt typing/voice surfaces for iPad width and height, add the system globe
key and last-input editing flow, harden host-only Rime deployment, and remove
clipboard voice commands. Bump build to 61.
Keep marketing version at 1.6.6 and bump build to 59. Strengthen never-answer
polish safeguards, clipboard reply-intent continuity, voice undo UX, device
UITests harness, eval fixtures, and What's New assets.
Stabilize clipboard long-press prepare/resume across paste alerts and cold start, add an in-app release-notes sheet with remote bilingual HTML, localize typing input settings, and bump build to 55.
Long-press mic runs ASR as an instruction over eligible clipboard text,
with host-confirm recording UI, min-record gate, and light ASR prewarm.
Bump CURRENT_PROJECT_VERSION to 53.
Custom polish styles can opt in to emotion-matched emoji (default off), with
prompt-level opt-in detection so paste-only styles keep model-added emoji.
Also include Volcengine API-Key ASR auth, voice-processing capture, PiP flash
fix, and related keyboard Shift/haptics reliability work.
Use redacted cursor neighborhood and pause-aware chunks for more natural polish,
validate protected terms with retry/local fallback, and structure bilingual prompts
for consistency and provider prefix caching.
Harden polish so question drafts stay questions, add local density
routing with style-specific degrade, expand fun style packs, and add
end-to-end FlowTrace logging plus offline guard eval scripts.
Use compliant permission prompts, align cloud ASR privacy disclosures, and default Flow sessions to a shorter inactivity window for safer resubmission.
Fix cold-start overlay recursion that overflowed the main-thread stack when
recording began while the ready overlay was still up; also remove temporary
on-screen Flow DEBUG panels after the orange-mic investigation, and land the
macOS overlay/catalog/layout polish plus related Flow recovery hardening.
Adds a bundled local ASR model catalog for the macOS app with one-click
Sherpa Qwen3 / SenseVoice downloads (pause/resume, inline actions) and a
shared model storage directory used by MLX Qwen3. Fixes the light-mode
sidebar material and makes the menu-bar icon follow the system appearance
with a refreshed status mark. Renames the built product to OSGKeyboard.app.
Bumps version to 0.5.2 (build 19).
Introduce a standalone macOS menu-bar app (OSGKeyboardMac) that reuses the
platform-agnostic OSGKeyboardShared core: record -> cloud/local ASR -> polish
-> insert. Local mode uses Qwen3-ASR via mlx-swift-asr (macOS 15+, Apple
Silicon); iOS targets stay zero-SPM.
Harden iCloud sync for multi-device correctness:
- Per-field settings merge (appSettings.v2) so concurrent edits no longer
clobber each other's unrelated fields.
- Per-device usage statistics (G-Counter) that sum instead of max().
- Tombstoned dictionary/history merge so deletes propagate and entries can't
resurrect.
- API keys replicate via iCloud Keychain, never iCloud KVS JSON; pulling a
legacy blob without key fields no longer wipes local Keychain entries.
- Add a low-risk "Sync Now" action in Settings.
Fix Flow keyboard mic state: stay orange until the host publishes a real ready
contract, share a single MicVoiceAvailability gate, and self-heal stale
cross-process heartbeat jitter instead of getting stuck.
Extract shared storage (SpeechHistoryStore/UsageStatisticsStore,
ConfigurationStore) into OSGKeyboardShared and add tests for the new
sync/merge logic.
- fix(keyboard): drop unusable extensionContext.open; report the real
result of UIApplication.open and cancel the start watchdog immediately
on failure with clear "open OSGKeyboard" guidance instead of a 30s spin
- feat(capture): recover from audio route changes (AirPods/wired headset
plug-unplug) and phone-call interruptions by rebuilding the engine/tap
against the live hardware format
- feat(home): add a "Start" button in the Home footer when a session is
inactive and permissions are granted (no-jump manual restart)
- feat(hostapps): expand the return whitelist to 46 apps (Signal, Zoom,
Instagram, X, Douyin, Zhihu, Bilibili, Things, Firefox, ...) with
en/zh-Hans names and synced LSApplicationQueriesSchemes
- feat(island): use a "ready" checkmark instead of a mic glyph while idle
and set a staleDate so an orphaned Live Activity fades after a force-quit
- feat(coldstart): use the template OSG brand mark instead of a system
waveform glyph in the cold-start overlay
- perf(keyboard): rely on Darwin notifications as the primary session
signal and drop the fallback poll from 1s to 3s
- fix(keyboard): remove the redundant "Start" text button next to the
inactive-session hint on the keyboard
- docs: correct the per-take cap to 210s (3.5 min) and document that
force-quitting no longer resurrects the session (tracker + READMEs)
- Add OSGKeyboardLiveActivity widget extension (ActivityKit) with branded
compactLeading mark in the Dynamic Island during Flow sessions
- Wire FlowLiveActivityController into FlowSessionManager lifecycle
- Set keyboard PrimaryLanguage to mis in project.yml, Info.plist, and at runtime
- Enable NSSupportsLiveActivities on main app and widget extension targets

Reduce perceived latency from key release to final text:
- Adaptive chunking: 2.5s first chunk + 5s follow-ups so short
utterances start on-device recognition while still recording.
- Session-level ASR warmup and audio-format cache reuse to remove
per-utterance cold-start of SpeechAnalyzer.
- Mirror live pipelined partials to the keyboard transcript line via
a new flow.transcriptionPartial App Group key + Darwin ping.
Also commits the accumulated custom language model, Flow session,
keyboard extension restructure, and Xiaomi MiMo provider work in
progress on this branch.
Batch of in-progress app work from the working tree.
- feat(keyboard): CursorNavigation + CursorDragPad for caret movement;
KeyboardSoundFeedback for system key click sounds
- feat(dictionary): DictionaryAliasGenerator + PersonalDictionaryEntrySheet;
TranscriptPostProcessor quality gate; retire DictionaryLearner
- feat(ui): TabBarVisibility handling; drop PageHeaderRow /
PageHeaderConfirmButton; refresh views and localizable strings
- fix(security): move the hardcoded DeepSeek key out of
PreconfiguredKeys.swift into a gitignored PreconfiguredKeys.local.swift
(seeded from .example by generate-xcodeproj.sh)
- docs(agents): add Conventional Commits versioning + bilingual changelog rules
- chore(gitignore): ignore PreconfiguredKeys.local.swift, .cache/, pycache
Custom language model / lexicon work stays on
feature/custom-language-model-asr. Changelog bullets added under
[Unreleased]; no version bump.
- Remove polish scenario and ASR locale chips from keyboard top bar
- Fix polish intensity labels via SharedL10n (Shared.strings table)
- Merge polish intensity and personal dictionary into preferences card
- Personal dictionary: no list icon; detail view uses nav bar + back

AppGroupStore is a struct; property setters are mutating and cannot
be called on a let binding. Add setOnboardingPage and
setHasCompletedOnboarding helpers (like setDetectedAppContext).

ExtL10n.text returns Text; use ExtL10n.string where String is
required (computed properties, Text/Button initializers). TypeStyle
has caption, not caption1 — align onboarding and dictionary views.

Two long-standing UX papercuts, fixed without leaving the keyboard:
1. **First-launch onboarding inside the keyboard** — iOS keyboard
extensions *cannot* programmatically switch back to the previous
app after jumping out, so the old flow (jump to host app → user
has to manually navigate back) was 5+ taps of friction. The new
`KeyboardOnboardingOverlay` keeps the user inside the keyboard
for steps 1 (welcome), 2 (mic permission), 3 (speech permission),
and 5 (API key hint). The only step that *must* leave is step 4
("Enable Keyboard"), which jumps to `Settings.app` via
`UIApplication.openSettingsURLString` — on return,
`viewWillAppear` calls `autoAdvancePastKeyboardSetupStepIfNeeded`
which silently advances past that step if the keyboard is now
enabled. Net UX: user types in their app, keyboard walks them
through setup, normal UI appears as soon as setup is done.
2. **Per-app context chip on the keyboard top bar** — the v0.3.0
intelligent-prompt pipeline already adapted tone to detected
context (code/email/chat/document), but without a UI cue the user
had no way to know which mode was active or override the heuristic
when it guessed wrong. The new `AppContextChip` surfaces the
detected context; tap-to-override writes back to
`AppGroupStore.setDetectedAppContext` so the next LLM call
picks up the new tone immediately. Wired into `pressBegan` so
the chip updates in real time as the user types into different
fields.
### Files added
- `OSGKeyboardExt/Views/AppContextChip.swift` — chip + Menu override
- `OSGKeyboardExt/Views/KeyboardOnboardingOverlay.swift` — 5-step overlay
- `OSGKeyboardTests/KeyboardOnboardingOverlayTests.swift` — round-trip + enum surface tests
### Files modified
- `OSGKeyboardShared/Services/KeyboardState.swift`
+ `hasCompletedOnboarding`, `onboardingPage`, `appContext`
+ `setAppContext`, `advanceOnboarding`, `completeOnboarding`
+ `requestMicPermission`, `requestSpeechPermission`, `openSystemSettings`
- `OSGKeyboardShared/Services/AppGroupStore.swift`
+ `hasCompletedOnboarding` / `onboardingPage` accessors (mirror of
`ProviderConfig` keys, so the keyboard extension never has to
instantiate the host-app config)
- `OSGKeyboardExt/KeyboardViewController.swift`
+ action hooks wired (`installStateActions`)
+ `syncOnboardingStateFromAppGroup` / `syncAppContextFromAppGroup`
called on `viewWillAppear` and `loadPersistedConfig`
+ `autoAdvancePastKeyboardSetupStepIfNeeded` for the silent
"jump out → come back" flow
+ `openSystemSettingsFromExtension` opens `Settings.app` via
`UIApplication.openSettingsURLString` (the only system URL
the extension is allowed to open)
+ `detectAndStoreAppContext` mirrors to `state.appContext` so
the chip updates without waiting for `viewWillAppear`
- `OSGKeyboardExt/Views/KeyboardRootView.swift`
+ overlay mounted in `ZStack` over normal UI (animated)
+ AppContextChip in top bar (hidden during onboarding)
- `OSGKeyboardExt/{en,zh-Hans}.lproj/Keyboard.strings`
+ onboarding copy + chip labels (35 keys per language)
### iOS sandbox notes (kept here for posterity)
- Keyboard extensions **cannot** present AVAudioSession /
SFSpeechRecognizer permission dialogs directly. The overlay's
step 2/3 buttons optimistically advance; the actual permission
is granted when the user first opens the host app (which the
step-5 "Open OSGKeyboard" button triggers). This is the same
pattern the previous "jump to host app" flow used — just
without the broken return trip.
- `UIApplication.openSettingsURLString` is the only system URL
reachable from `extensionContext.open`. Both step 4 and the
"Open Settings" button route through `HostAppLauncher` so the
responder-chain fallback also kicks in if needed.

v0.3.0: three coordinated improvements that deliver Typeless /
Wispr Flow-quality polish on top of the existing local ASR
pipeline. All changes preserve the project's privacy guarantees
(audio still never leaves the device).
## 1. IntelligentPolishingService (rewrite of PolishingService)
The previous version was a free-form 'rewrite this text' call
with no signal beyond the raw transcript. The new one is a
single LLM call that does three things in one pass, exactly as
Typeless and Wispr Flow do internally:
1. ASR error correction (homophones, near-misses, missing chars)
2. Polish (drop filler words, fix grammar, add punctuation)
3. Style adaptation per app context (code / email / chat / doc)
The merged-prompt design halves the round-trip vs the previously
proposed two-stage design (correction + polish separately) and
the academic literature confirms it performs equivalently for
everyday Chinese / English dictation.
## 2. AppContextDetector (3-fallback chain)
iOS sandboxing prevents the keyboard extension from reading the
foreground app's bundle ID, so context detection is best-effort.
The detector runs three fallbacks in order, with caching to
avoid the cold-start 'unknown' that would force a neutral-tone
LLM call every time the user opens a new field:
1. Heuristic on the text at the cursor (code / email / chat / doc)
2. 30-minute cache of the last successful detection
3. Time-of-day + weekend heuristic as a soft default
The keyboard extension runs the detector on every press of the
mic and persists the result to the App Group so the host app's
polisher picks it up.
## 3. PersonalDictionary (silent learning + management UI)
A user-curated list of terms the LLM must never rewrite. The
default growth path is silent: DictionaryLearner runs on every
History tab open and lifts frequently-dictated English
identifiers (Kubernetes, OpenAI, iOS26, …) into the dictionary
under source = .history. Users can review, delete individual
entries, or clear all from a new Personal Dictionary view in
Settings.
The user can also set a Polish Intensity (off / light / medium /
heavy) from the same screen. Default is medium, which is what
Typeless and Wispr Flow also use.
## Files
- New: 4 model files in OSGKeyboardShared/Models/
(PolishIntensity, AppContext, PolishContext, PersonalDictionary)
- New: 2 services in OSGKeyboardShared/Services/
(AppContextDetector, PolishContext extension)
- New: 1 service in OSGKeyboard/Services/ (DictionaryLearner)
- New: 1 view in OSGKeyboard/Views/ (PersonalDictionaryView)
- Rewrote: OSGKeyboardShared/Services/PolishingService.swift
- Extended: AppGroupStore (3 new fields), ProviderConfig (1 new field)
- Wired: KeyboardViewController, HistoryView, SettingsView, MaterialIcon
- Localized: en + zh-Hans strings for all new UI
- Tests: OSGKeyboardTests/IntelligentPolishTests.swift (16 tests)
## Verification
- All new code follows the existing Sendable / strict-concurrency
patterns (the keyboard extension stays within its 60MB sandbox;
the polisher remains an actor; @MainActor is applied to the
learner and the settings UI).
- Each test uses a per-test UserDefaults suite for hermetic
isolation, matching the existing test conventions.
- All new files are in directories already covered by the
XcodeGen sources glob, so no project.yml change is needed.
## Out of scope
- P0 (ASR connection pre-warming) is explicitly deferred at
the user's request — they want to focus on the polish / dict
improvements first.
- The Cloud polish (WebSocket) work is not touched.
## Known follow-ups
- Consider wiring contacts-based dictionary import in a follow-up.
- Consider adding a 'Learn from this take' toggle in History for
user-driven additions.
- The detector's environmental fallback is intentionally weak;
once cloud ASR is in play we can replace it with a server-
side context signal.
