+# Whisper dictation
+
+Provide reliable local dictation on Zeus.
+
+## Prototype findings
+
+- `hyprwhspr-rs` provides PipeWire capture, local `whisper.cpp` transcription, clipboard copying, and Hyprland integration.
+- The prototype used `small.en` from `~/dwn/ggml-small.en.bin`.
+- The initial CPU prototype transcribed accurately but added about 2.3 seconds after a 2.9-second recording.
+- Vulkan acceleration uses `whisper-cpp-vulkan` and `gpu_layers = 999`.
+- `SUPER + ALT + D` starts recording on press and stops recording on release.
+- Hyprland Lua represents release bindings with `hl.bind(..., { release = true })`.
+- `hyprwhspr-rs` uses Hyprland's removed `sendshortcut` dispatcher for automatic paste.
+- Its virtual-keyboard fallback can drop modifiers and insert only `v`.
+- Treat the prototype configuration as disposable because it no longer works reliably.
+
+## Completion
+
+- [ ] Choose a maintained local speech-to-text backend.
+- [ ] Record microphone audio through PipeWire.
+- [ ] Transcribe locally with GPU acceleration when available.
+- [ ] Insert transcribed text reliably into the focused application.
+- [ ] Copy transcribed text to the clipboard.
+- [ ] Test dictation with representative technical speech.
