Chunk size was hardcoded at 2.5-min bodies. Add a Settings control: Auto / Standard 2.5min / Large group 60s / Fine 90s. Shorter chunks keep fewer simultaneous speakers per window (Sortformer resolves ~4/chunk), useful for large calls, at some cost to speed and cross-chunk voice matching. - ChunkMode (new, pure/testable): mode → body seconds; Auto picks 60s when >4 participants were detected, else 150s; overlap + single-chunk threshold scale with the body length. - AppSettings.chunkMode (+ typed `chunk`); SettingsView picker with explanation. - TranscriptPipeline.process gains chunkSeconds; derives overlap/threshold from it. - SessionController resolves the body from the setting + the session's detected participant count (visual_timeline participants) for both send + re-process. - Participant roster now counts EVERY tile OCR'd, not just who spoke (TimelineBuilder.observedNames → VisualObserver → VisualCapture), so the Auto call-size signal is meaningful even though speaking-detection is sparse. Tests: ChunkMode resolution, overlap scaling, short-body re-chunking. 69 pass.
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.
- The default backend host is
