- models/hf-cache/ vendors Systran/faster-whisper-base (142MB, gitignored);
engine spawn pins HF_HUB_CACHE there, so transcription works with a cold
~/.cache and fully offline
- verified: HOME=/tmp/fakehome HF_HUB_OFFLINE=1 model loads and transcribes
via the bundled cache alone
- setup-standalone.sh: idempotent fresh-clone provisioning (local venv,
model copy-or-download, engine boot smoke on :8123) — runs green
- backend/README rewritten for the desktop bundled-lite reality (was
pointing at a nonexistent root README/docs and a Postgres quickstart)
Kotlin suite still green (gradlew test, 0 failures)
- shared/ = portable Android-origin sources vendored from deferred/desktop-server
(app/build.gradle.kts srcDir repointed; PlaybackController.kt excluded as Android-only)
- backend/ = bundled-lite engine (SQLite + inline queue); .venv symlinked from the
old checkout, PYTHONPATH pins THIS backend's code over any editable install
- repoRoot() resolves this project dir (env SHONAR_REPO still wins); desktop-dev.sh
watches shared/ + backend/
- Verified: :app:compileKotlin + :app:test green (23 tests); engine boots on :8010,
self-migrates, /healthz ok
