|
||||
## Context
|
||||
The Meeting Assistant currently uses batch transcription: audio is recorded, saved to file, then sent to Whisper for processing. This creates a poor UX where users must wait until recording stops to see any text. Users also cannot correct transcription errors.
|
||||
|
||||
**Stakeholders**: End users recording meetings, admin reviewing transcripts
|
||||
**Constraints**: i5/8GB hardware target, offline capability required
|
||||
|
||||
## Goals / Non-Goals
|
||||
|
||||
### Goals
|
||||
- Real-time text display during recording (< 3 second latency)
|
||||
- Segment-based editing without disrupting ongoing transcription
|
||||
- Punctuation in output (Chinese: 。,?!;:)
|
||||
- Maintain offline capability (all processing local)
|
||||
|
||||
### Non-Goals
|
||||
- Speaker diarization (who said what) - future enhancement
|
||||
- Multi-language mixing - Chinese only for MVP
|
||||
- Cloud-based transcription fallback
|
||||

## Decisions
|
||||
|
||||
### Decision 1: VAD-triggered Segmentation
|
||||
**What**: Use Silero VAD to detect speech boundaries, transcribe complete utterances
|
||||
**Why**:
|
||||
- More accurate than fixed-interval chunking
|
||||
- Natural sentence boundaries
|
||||
- Reduces partial/incomplete transcriptions
|
||||
**Alternatives**:
|
||||
- Fixed 5-second chunks (simpler but cuts mid-sentence)
|
||||
- Word-level streaming (too fragmented, higher latency)
|
||||
|
||||
### Decision 2: Segment-based Editing
|
||||
**What**: Each VAD segment becomes an editable text block with unique ID
|
||||
**Why**:
|
||||
- Users can edit specific segments without affecting others
|
||||
- New segments append without disrupting editing
|
||||
- Simple merge on save (concatenate all segments)
|
||||
**Alternatives**:
|
||||
- Single textarea (editing conflicts with appending text)
|
||||
- Contenteditable div (complex cursor management)
|
||||
|
||||
### Decision 3: Audio Format Pipeline
|
||||
**What**: WebM (MediaRecorder) → WAV conversion in main.js → raw PCM to sidecar
|
||||
**Why**:
|
||||
- MediaRecorder only outputs WebM/Opus in browsers
|
||||
- Whisper works best with WAV/PCM
|
||||
- Conversion in main.js keeps sidecar simple
|
||||
**Alternatives**:
|
||||
- ffmpeg in sidecar (adds large dependency)
|
||||
- Raw PCM from AudioWorklet (complex, browser compatibility issues)
|
||||
|
||||
### Decision 4: Punctuation via Whisper + Rules
|
||||
**What**: Enable Whisper word_timestamps, apply rule-based punctuation after
|
||||
**Why**:
|
||||
- Whisper alone outputs minimal punctuation for Chinese
|
||||
- Rule-based post-processing adds 。,? based on pauses and patterns
|
||||
- No additional model needed
|
||||
**Alternatives**:
|
||||
- Separate punctuation model (adds latency and complexity)
|
||||
- No punctuation (user requirement)
|
||||
|
||||
## Risks / Trade-offs
|
||||
|
||||
| Risk | Mitigation |
|
||||
|------|------------|
|
||||
| Latency > 3s on slow hardware | Use "tiny" model option, skip VAD if needed |
|
||||
| WebM→WAV conversion quality loss | Use lossless conversion, test on various inputs |
|
||||
| Memory usage with long meetings | Limit audio buffer to 30s, process and discard |
|
||||
| Segment boundary splits words | Use VAD with 500ms silence threshold |
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation Phases
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Phase 1**: Sidecar streaming mode with VAD
|
||||
2. **Phase 2**: IPC audio streaming pipeline
|
||||
3. **Phase 3**: Frontend editable segment component
|
||||
4. **Phase 4**: Punctuation post-processing
|
||||
|
||||
## Open Questions
|
||||
- Should segments be auto-merged after N seconds of no editing?
|
||||
- Maximum segment count before auto-archiving old segments?

# Change: Add Real-time Streaming Transcription
|
||||
|
||||
## Why
|
||||
Current transcription workflow requires users to stop recording before seeing results. Users cannot edit transcription errors, and output lacks punctuation. For meeting scenarios, real-time feedback with editable text is essential for immediate correction and context awareness.
|
||||
|
||||
## What Changes
|
||||
- **Sidecar**: Implement streaming VAD-based transcription with sentence segmentation
|
||||
- **IPC**: Add continuous audio streaming from renderer to main process to sidecar
|
||||
- **Frontend**: Make transcript editable with real-time segment updates
|
||||
- **Punctuation**: Enable Whisper's word timestamps and add sentence boundary detection
|
||||
|
||||
## Impact
|
||||
- Affected specs: `transcription` (new), `frontend-transcript` (new)
|
||||
- Affected code:
|
||||
- `sidecar/transcriber.py` - Add streaming mode with VAD
|
||||
- `client/src/main.js` - Add audio streaming IPC handlers
|
||||
- `client/src/preload.js` - Expose streaming APIs
|
||||
- `client/src/pages/meeting-detail.html` - Editable transcript component
|
||||
|
||||
## Success Criteria
|
||||
1. User sees text appearing within 2-3 seconds of speaking
|
||||
2. Each segment is individually editable
|
||||
3. Output includes punctuation (。,?!)
|
||||
4. Recording can continue while user edits previous segments

## ADDED Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirement: Editable Transcript Segments
|
||||
The frontend SHALL display transcribed text as individually editable segments that can be modified without disrupting ongoing transcription.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Display new segment
|
||||
- **WHEN** a new transcription segment is received from sidecar
|

- **AND** the block SHALL be immediately editable
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Edit existing segment

|
||||
- **AND** the Start Recording button SHALL change to Stop Recording
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Processing indicator

|
||||
- **THEN** a "Processing..." indicator SHALL appear in the active segment area
|
||||
- **AND** the indicator SHALL disappear when text arrives
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Streaming status display
|
||||
- **WHEN** streaming session is active
|
||||
- **THEN** the UI SHALL display segment count (e.g., "Segment 5/5")
|
||||
- **AND** total recording duration
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirement: Audio Streaming IPC
|
||||
The Electron main process SHALL provide IPC handlers for continuous audio streaming between renderer and sidecar.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Start streaming
|
||||
- **WHEN** renderer calls `startRecordingStream()`
|
||||
- **THEN** main process SHALL send start_stream command to sidecar
|
||||
- **AND** return session confirmation to renderer
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Stream audio data
|
||||
- **WHEN** renderer sends audio chunk via `streamAudioChunk(arrayBuffer)`
|
||||
- **THEN** main process SHALL convert WebM to PCM if needed
|
||||
- **AND** forward to sidecar stdin as base64-encoded audio_chunk command
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Receive transcription
|
||||
- **WHEN** sidecar emits a segment result on stdout
|
||||
- **THEN** main process SHALL parse the JSON
|
||||
- **AND** forward to renderer via `transcription-segment` IPC event

## ADDED Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirement: Streaming Transcription Mode
|
||||
The sidecar SHALL support a streaming mode where audio chunks are continuously received and transcribed in real-time with VAD-triggered segmentation.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Start streaming session
|
||||
- **WHEN** sidecar receives `{"action": "start_stream"}` command
|
||||
- **THEN** it SHALL initialize audio buffer and VAD processor
|
||||
- **AND** respond with `{"status": "streaming", "session_id": "<uuid>"}`
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Process audio chunk
|
||||
- **WHEN** sidecar receives `{"action": "audio_chunk", "data": "<base64_pcm>"}` during active stream
|
||||
- **THEN** it SHALL append audio to buffer and run VAD detection
|
||||
- **AND** if speech boundary detected, transcribe accumulated audio
|
||||
- **AND** emit `{"segment_id": <int>, "text": "<transcription>", "is_final": true}`
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Stop streaming session
|
||||

|
||||
- **THEN** it SHALL transcribe any remaining buffered audio
|
||||
- **AND** respond with `{"status": "stream_stopped", "total_segments": <int>}`
|
||||
|

### Requirement: VAD-based Speech Segmentation
|
||||
The sidecar SHALL use Voice Activity Detection to identify natural speech boundaries for segmentation.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Detect speech end
|
||||
- **WHEN** VAD detects silence exceeding 500ms after speech
|
||||
- **THEN** the accumulated speech audio SHALL be sent for transcription
|
||||
- **AND** a new segment SHALL begin for subsequent speech
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Handle continuous speech
|
||||
- **WHEN** speech continues for more than 15 seconds without pause
|
||||
- **THEN** the sidecar SHALL force a segment boundary
|
||||
- **AND** transcribe the 15-second chunk to prevent excessive latency
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirement: Punctuation in Transcription Output

|
||||
- **THEN** the punctuation processor SHALL append question mark (?)
