Línea de trabajo

Start in ReadbackModel.swift: the stop path around lines 1036-1054 and process() around 1343-1364, plus the cancel path near 1063-1069 and shortcutLabel near 516. The issue depends on the unmerged #330 branch, which supplies the fake recorder for --check-readback, so confirm that branch is merged first. Done means each listed --check-readback case passes and the native microphone checks are confirmed by hand.

Descripción

bug

Outcome: a silent retake never hides a section's words. The toolbar never discards a long take without the page's question. The narration notice names a key only when that key works.

1. A retake that hears no words keeps the earlier words
  • Problem:
    • Stop's quiet screen catches only takes under 0.35 s or −55 dB (ReadbackModel.swift:1036-1039).
    • Every other take first moves the section's audio, original text and edited text into history/ (:1044), unlinks both transcripts (:1051) and drops the draft (:1054).
    • When transcription returns nothing, process() throws (:1343) and saves .failed with no text (:1362-1364).
    • The page then shows "Transcription stopped" with only Retry transcription (ReadbackView.swift:462-465). Retry re-runs the same silent audio (ReadbackModel.swift:1118-1124). Re-record is hidden in ⋯ (ReadbackView.swift:419), and the summary says "1 needs a retry" (:240-241).
    • Nothing reads history/, so the notes or narration look gone.
    • Meetings already decided that a recording which heard no speech is never offered for retry (docs/workbench.md:207).
  • Change:
    • Stop: archive only the previous audio and original. Keep narration.txt linked, and keep the draft.
    • process() with words: archive the still-linked edited text, then write the new files.
    • process() with no words:
      • archive the silent WAV and clear audio;
      • set .ready with no failure when text is still linked; otherwise set .needsNarration with "No speech was heard. Record the narration again.";
      • set the notice to "No speech heard. The screenshot and any earlier narration were kept."
    • Real engine errors: keep .failed and Retry, as today.
    • One sentence in docs/snap.md.
  • Check: --check-readback with ControlledTranscriber and #330's fake recorder:
    • imported notes, empty result: .ready, notes intact, silent WAV in history/, no "retry" anywhere;
    • narrated section, empty result: .ready, edited text kept;
    • fresh capture, empty result: .ready;
    • nothing linked, empty result: .needsNarration;
    • engine error: .failed, earlier text still on disk;
    • words: new text, earlier text archived.
    • Removing the no-words branch must fail the first four.
2. The toolbar's Cancel narration asks as the page does
  • Problem: while narrating, the chooser lists Stop narration and Cancel narration side by side (ToolbarActivityActions.swift:60-64).
    • Cancel calls cancelNarration() directly, which deletes the take (ReadbackModel.swift:1063-1069). A take can run 300 s (:1023).
    • The page asks "Discard this narration?" after 10 s (ReadbackView.swift:255-257, :128-131; docs/desktop.md:119).
    • docs/workbench.md:118: every door gives the same result.
  • Change:
    • One rule in ReadbackModel shared by both doors:
      • cancelAsksFirst(elapsed:);
      • a published pendingCancelNarration holding the take's identity;
      • requestCancelNarration();
      • confirmCancelNarration(_:), which re-checks the identity.
    • The question clears whenever recording ends, including the 300 s auto-stop.
    • The page's existing dialog binds to it.
    • The chooser calls requestCancelNarration() and, when it asks, opens Snap & Talk with the page's dialog showing.
    • No NSAlert: it would block the narration timer.
  • Check: --check-readback with a check-only take fixture:
    • at 74 s it asks and keeps the file;
    • Keep recording keeps the take running;
    • Discard with the matching identity removes the file; a stale identity does nothing;
    • at 5 s it discards at once;
    • Stop and the auto-stop clear the question.
    • The existing ToolbarActivityChooserTests pass.
3. The narration notice names a key only when it works
  • Problem: shortcutLabel (ReadbackModel.swift:516) returns "Off" when the shortcut is disabled (VoicePreferences.swift:26-27) and ignores shortcutFailure (:453).
    • The notice reads "Narrating section 2. Use Off again to stop." (:1016).
    • The help (ReadbackView.swift:276) and the options sheet (:580) say "Off captures the display…".
    • The toolbar already filters both cases (FloatingToolbar.swift:371-375), and so does Dictate (AppModel.swift:612). #15 Slice B fixes Home and Dictate.
  • Change:
    • usableShortcutLabel: nil when the shortcut is off or failed to register.
    • static narrationNotice(section:shortcut:): without a usable key it ends "Use Stop narration to finish."
    • The help names the key only when it is usable.
    • The options sheet shows the failure, or "No shortcut is set. Capture & narrate on the page still works."
  • Check: --check-readback:
    • the pure notice, with and without a key;
    • shortcut disabled in a scratch defaults suite: nil;
    • enabled: "⌥C";
    • with a registration failure: nil.
Native checks owed (microphone)
  • Re-record over a section with notes while the input is muted: the notes stay, and no Retry appears.
  • Narrate past 10 s, then choose Cancel narration in the chooser: Snap & Talk opens with "Discard this narration?". Keep recording continues the take.
  • With ⌥C off, choose Capture & narrate: the notice ends "Use Stop narration to finish."
Value before scope
  1. Outcome: no hidden words, no unasked loss of up to five minutes of narration, and no instruction to press "Off". Evidence: the traced paths.
  2. Simpler route: Stop's quiet-take rule, the page's own dialog, and the toolbar's existing shortcut filter.
  3. Owner: ReadbackModel.
  4. Complexity: no new control, label or setting.
  5. Verified by: --check-readback.

Grammar: Quality.

Sequencing: the #330 branch is ReadbackModel's only writer tonight. Build after it merges, reusing its fake recorder: item 1 first, then items 2-3.
