What's New in v0.4.0

This is a major feature release bringing full feature parity with the Mac version.

Post-Processing Pipeline

• Refactored text processing into a priority-based pipeline architecture
• Plugin post-processors can now hook into the processing chain with custom priorities
• Action plugins (Linear, Obsidian) can receive processed text instead of inserting it

HTTP API (7 new endpoints)

• GET /v1/history — Search history with pagination
• DELETE /v1/history — Delete history entries
• GET /v1/profiles — List all profiles
• PUT /v1/profiles/toggle — Toggle profile on/off
• POST /v1/dictation/start / stop — Remote recording control
• GET /v1/dictation/status — Check recording state
• Extended /v1/status with streaming and translation capabilities

Model Auto-Unload

• Models are now automatically unloaded after a configurable idle timeout
• Saves memory when TypeWhisper is running but not actively used
• Configurable via ModelAutoUnloadSeconds setting (0 = disabled)

History Export

• Added Markdown (.md) and JSON (.json) export formats
• Export dialog now supports 4 formats: Text, CSV, Markdown, JSON

New Plugins (available in Marketplace)

• Google Gemini — LLM provider supporting Gemini 2.5 Flash, Pro, and Flash Lite
• Linear — Create Linear issues directly from transcriptions via GraphQL API
• Obsidian — Save transcriptions as Markdown notes in Obsidian vaults with YAML frontmatter
• Script Runner — Pipe transcriptions through custom shell scripts (cmd/PowerShell)
• Live Transcript — Floating semi-transparent window showing real-time transcription

Per-Profile Hotkeys

• Each profile can now have a dedicated hotkey for instant activation
• Bypasses automatic app/URL matching — press the hotkey to dictate with that specific profile
• Configure via the new hotkey recorder in the profile detail panel

Audio Device Preview

• Real-time microphone level meter in audio settings
• Visual feedback when selecting or testing microphone devices
• Preview automatically starts/stops when navigating to/from the Recording section

Database

• Schema upgraded to v6 with new columns for action plugin routing, profile hotkeys, and model tracking
