Reconciliation (the marry-the-signals layer): after transcription, before the recap, SpeakerReconciler (1) MERGES non-self clusters whose voiceprints are highly similar (cosine >= 0.82) — fixes a person split across chunks (the real 1-on-1 failure: one remote came back as 'MH' + 'Unknown_0'); and (2) NAMES remaining non-self clusters from transcript CONTENT via the gateway LLM (people addressed by name / self-intros), conservative + confidence-gated, keeping the placeholder when unrevealed. The mic-channel self is protected and never reassigned. Voice does the segmentation; the fingerprint-merge fixes splits; the LLM adds the content signal visual/voiceprint lack. - SpeakerReconciler: pure cosine merge (tested) + LLM content-naming pass; rewrites speakers.json before recap. SessionController.finishBackend shares one model lookup for reconcile + recap. Gated by settings.reconcileSpeakers (default on). - Open saved session: menu 'Open saved session…' → folder picker. Edits it if already transcribed, else reconstructs inputs from disk (visual_timeline vision segs + channel self-spans) and runs transcribe → reconcile → recap, then opens the editor. Lets you evaluate/correct ANY past call, not just the in-memory last one. Note (from real Signal data): visual naming is unreliable on Signal (sparse, misread initials, lowercase/center names) — so reconciliation + the editor (which teaches voiceprints on confirm) carry it; the editor remains the human arbiter. 59/59 XCTest.
Ten31 Transcripts
Native macOS menu-bar app that auto-detects conference calls, records local audio,
builds a visual-derived speaker timeline, and hands audio + timeline to the
SparkControl backend for naming/transcription. See docs/ for the full spec.
This repo is at Phase 0 (scaffold, permissions, backend health check).
One-time setup
- Install Xcode from the Mac App Store (free; ~40 GB). Open it once and accept the license prompt.
- Install XcodeGen (generates the Xcode project from
project.yml):brew install xcodegen - Generate the project:
This creates
xcodegen generateTen31Transcripts.xcodeproj(git-ignored — regenerate any time). - Open it:
open Ten31Transcripts.xcodeproj - Signing is preconfigured:
project.ymlsetsDEVELOPMENT_TEAMto the free personal teamBK4Y6CXN35with automatic signing, so Signing & Capabilities should already show the team — no manual selection needed. (If you ever sign with a different Apple ID, updateDEVELOPMENT_TEAMinproject.yml, not in Xcode —xcodegen generateoverwrites Xcode-side changes.) - Press Run (⌘R).
Note: after adding files in a new phase, re-run
xcodegen generateand let Xcode reload the project. The signing team persists because it lives inproject.yml, so macOS permissions stay granted across rebuilds.
What Phase 0 does
- Launches as a menu-bar-only app (no Dock icon).
- Menu panel shows live status for the three permissions it needs — Microphone, Screen Recording, Accessibility — with Grant / Open Settings buttons.
- Shows a backend health check (
GET /api/status) against the configured host. - Settings: backend base URL, skip-TLS toggle (on by default for the self-signed cert), output folder, and adapter toggles (inert this phase).
No audio capture, call detection, screen reading, or backend hand-off yet — those
arrive in Phases 1–6 (docs/04_BUILD_PLAN.md).

Notes
- App Sandbox is off and Hardened Runtime is off — this is a personal, LAN-only tool that must observe other apps. Revisit only if distributing.
