Code Review Summary
This is a good, well-implemented change that addresses the folder naming inconsistency raised in issue #442.
Key Analysis:
✅ Consistency Achieved:
- Before:
parakeetTdtCtc110mhad a special case returning"parakeet-tdt-ctc-110m"(missing-coremlsuffix) - After: Falls through to
default: return name, returning"parakeet-tdt-ctc-110m-coreml"like other Parakeet models (.parakeet,.parakeetV2,.parakeetCtc110m,.parakeetCtc06b)
✅ Code Quality:
- Reduces code complexity by removing unnecessary special case
- Makes the codebase more predictable and maintainable
- Test updated correctly to match new behavior
- PR correctly documents this as a breaking change that may trigger re-downloads
- This is acceptable for consistency and is a one-time migration
- Affects folder path from
~/Library/Application Support/FluidAudio/Models/parakeet-tdt-ctc-110m/toparakeet-tdt-ctc-110m-coreml/
✅ Test Coverage:
- Test correctly updated in
ModelNamesTests.swift:129to expect the new folder name - Change aligns with existing pattern used by other Parakeet models
Recommendation: APPROVE ✅
This change improves codebase consistency and maintainability. The breaking change is well-documented and justified for establishing a uniform naming pattern across all Parakeet models.

Remove redundant special cases in folderName property. Now only keeps special cases for nested directory structures (EOU and Nemotron variants) and uses a simple default rule: strip "-coreml" suffix from the name. This eliminates the inconsistency raised in #442 by applying a consistent pattern across all models. Before: - Had 10+ special cases explicitly returning shortened names - parakeetTdtCtc110m was inconsistent with other Parakeet models After: - Only 5 special cases for nested directories (parakeet-eou-streaming/*, nemotron-streaming/*) - Default strips -coreml suffix for all other models - All Parakeet models now follow the same pattern Fixes #442

Add back special cases for kokoro and sortformer to preserve existing folder names and avoid forcing users to re-download models. Still removes redundant special cases (lseend, pocketTts, multilingualG2p, parakeetTdtCtc110m) that can safely use the default -coreml stripping logic. Result: 7 special cases total (kokoro, sortformer, + 5 nested directories) vs 11 special cases before. Still achieves consistency for Parakeet models without breaking existing cached model locations.

The offline diarizer benchmark was failing in CI because the PLDA parameters JSON file was not being downloaded when downloading offline diarizer models. The requiredModels set only included the 4 .mlmodelc files but not the plda-parameters.json file that's required by OfflineDiarizerModels.loadPLDAPsi(). This caused the error: PLDA parameters file not found in /Users/runner/Library/Application Support/FluidAudio/Models Fixes the diarization-benchmark.yml workflow failure.
With the folderName simplification, diarizer models are now stored in 'speaker-diarization/' instead of 'speaker-diarization-coreml/'. Update the PLDA parameter file lookup to check the new folder location while maintaining backward compatibility with old paths.

This addresses the inconsistency raised in #442. The original code had 11 special cases (6 for shortened names + 5 for nested directories). Many just removed the
