Smoke testing v0.10.0:0 against a real anarlog audio.mp3 showed the
output running words together: "I'mrecordingrightnow", "don'tyoutry".
Root cause: _merge_words_with_speakers was doing "".join(cur_words),
assuming Parakeet returns words with leading whitespace (which the
hyprnote local Parakeet does, but the Spark-hosted Parakeet does not).
Rewrote the join with a small helper that:
- Strips each token (handles both leading-space and no-leading-space
word formats)
- Joins with a single space
- Keeps punctuation tight — no space before period/comma/colon/etc.
Verified post-install with the same test audio:
[00:06] Speaker_0: I'm I'm recording right now.
[00:18] Speaker_1: you're you're on your computer and your phone, right?
No other changes — Parakeet container patches and the endpoint shape
stay identical.
