- Settings: "Keep history" (a day … forever, default a month); older
recordings and their audio are pruned at startup, after each recording
and when the setting changes.
- History rows keep play, copy and delete only.
- Advanced: the microphone is picked from PipeWire's sources instead of a
free-text field, with a note about Bluetooth headsets switching profile.
- A stock machine without voxtype gets a banner with an Install button that
runs omarchy-voxtype-install in a floating terminal; the daemon refuses to
record until the tools are there and says why.
A bar widget plus a stdlib-only Python daemon. Press a language's key to
record, press it again to stop: the text is pasted at the cursor (or handed
to the default coding agent with a second key). While recording the bar
shows a waveform (yellow while the microphone opens, green while listening)
and the words as they are recognised; the recording is transcribed at every
pause, so stopping only transcribes the last phrase. Every recording and its
text are kept in a searchable history with playback, copy, paste and delete.
Uses Omarchy's own dictation engine (voxtype, local Whisper) by default and
downloads any model a language needs by itself; whisper.cpp or a custom
command can be picked instead. Key bindings are applied at runtime through
Hyprland's Lua API and never touch a key something else already uses.
