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.
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.

Add preset-driven polish scenarios (Settings, onboarding, ScenarioChip)
with ScenarioPrompt and style directives; drive keyboard height from
content (240pt) and use viewIsAppearing encapsulated-height offset for
smoother keyboard switches; remove redundant StatusBadge and hide system
dictation via hasDictationKey.
- Add LLMProvider.isUserSelectable (default true) and filter
ProviderPickerSection on it; next pass can hide non-user presets
(e.g. a future DeepSeek key-preset) without changing call sites.
- KeyboardRootView: hide TranslationChip when off (matches user's
mental model of an opt-in feature), drop the 'warming' branch
(Qwen3 download UX was removed with the backend in v0.2.0), unify
chip pill height to minHeight 28 + vertical 6 for visual rhythm
across all topbar chips.
- TranslationChip: drop isLocal warning path — both engines now
run the translate-and-polish step (local routes through DeepSeek
via ProviderConfig.localModeProviderId).
- OnboardingView: cloud engine branch now wraps the translation
row in the same surface card chrome as the local branch.
- Strings: drop keyboard.models.warming (no longer referenced).
DeepSeek key pre-fill deferred to a follow-up.
Adds an opt-in translation pipeline that reuses the existing
PolishingService + LLMClient + AppGroupStore chain. Translation is
implemented as a new PolishMode (.translate(targetLocaleId:)); all
existing call sites are unchanged.
Settings:
- New TranslationPickerRow in the language tab (Toggle + 10-locale
picker: en/zh-Hans/zh-Hant/ja/ko/fr/de/es/ru/pt), persisted to the
App Group so the keyboard extension can read it during live dictation.
- 5 new strings per language (en + zh-Hans).
Keyboard:
- New TranslationChip on the top bar to the right of LocaleChip;
same Menu pattern, lets users toggle or quickly switch target
language without leaving the keyboard.
- PolishingService dispatches .translate with a parameterised prompt
(en/zh variants selected by provider id); PolishingService.error
gains a translationNotAvailable case so local-engine users get a
clear inline warning when the toggle is on but cloud is off.
- 6 new strings per language (en + zh-Hans) for the chip + banner.
Local engine policy:
- Translation is cloud-only by design (local engine stays ASR-only
to honour the no-roundtrip promise). Chip shows a 'cloud required'
state and raw transcript still inserts on failure — no data loss.
Build:
- OSGKeyboardShared adds TranslationLanguage enum (10 locales) and
TranslationPrompt factory.
- 4 new files, 9 modified. xcodebuild scheme=OSGKeyboard
config=Debug destination=iPhone 17 Simulator: BUILD SUCCEEDED
(0 warning, 0 error).
Also pins DEVELOPMENT_TEAM in project.yml for TestFlight uploads
(3 targets; Team X329MZU23S).
Replace MLX GPU inference with CoreML bundles so transcription continues
while the host app is backgrounded. Adds model download and warm-up,
vendored Qwen3Speech, and updates onboarding, settings, and copy for the
~1.6 GB CoreML package (iOS 18+).
Streamline the five-step flow with smarter skip logic, a centered welcome intro, clearer zh copy, keyboard setup detection via the extension, and home tips when permissions are still missing after onboarding completes.
Renew voice sessions while the host app stays foreground, auto-start flow from the keyboard with a Start action, and prevent leading audio loss via pre-roll buffering and faster signal polling.
XcodeGen merged Localizable.strings into the main app only, so the keyboard
extension had no .lproj files and NSLocalizedString returned raw keys. Use a
dedicated Keyboard.strings table and explicit buildPhase: resources entries.
