v0.13.0:0 - revert WhisperX migration; back to Parakeet + Sortformer
After five hotfix iterations on the WhisperX install (v0.12.0:0–:4) we
never got a working docker build. The fundamental constraint isn't
patchable from outside NVIDIA: NGC PyTorch on ARM64 (the only base that
runs on Spark 2's GB10 Blackwell) ships a custom-versioned torch
2.10.0a0+b558c98 that has no pre-built torchaudio match anywhere.
WhisperX → pyannote → torchaudio is a hard dependency chain we couldn't
satisfy without rebuilding torchaudio against torch 2.10's alpha API.
Walking away cleanly is better than another night of chasing.
Removed from the codebase:
- image/whisperx_container/* (Dockerfile + requirements + app/main.py)
- image/app/whisperx_install.py (install manager + SSH ship-context logic)
- image/Dockerfile COPY whisperx_container
- WHISPERX_* config keys in config.py
- whisperx service entry in services.py
- WhisperX-preferred branch in audio_proxy.py
- /api/whisperx/* endpoints in server.py
- install banner + progress dialog in index.html
- render + handlers in app.js
- .whisperx-install styles in style.css
Spark 2 cleaned in tandem (user-authorized): container removed,
~/whisperx-build/ removed, 5.4 GB of dangling image layers + 1.3 GB of
builder cache reclaimed. parakeet-asr and magpie-tts unaffected and
healthy throughout.
The audio path is back to exactly what shipped in v0.11.0:3:
POST /api/audio/transcribe-with-speakers
→ Parakeet (transcription) + Sortformer (diarization) in parallel
→ merged by timestamp into speaker-labeled blocks
v0.13.0:1+ will add the actually-needed fixes that the WhisperX detour
was meant to address:
1. memory cap on the parakeet-asr container so a long-audio crash
can't swap-thrash Spark 2 again
2. a chunking proxy in /api/audio/transcribe-with-speakers that
splits inputs >10 min before Sortformer
