Muesli 0.7.0
This release focuses on faster dictation start, more reliable meeting microphone capture, and the completed move to the Muesli HQ release/update infrastructure.
What's New
- Faster dictation activation: dictation now uses the AudioQueue-backed recorder path by default for both Automatic and explicitly selected microphones, reducing hotkey-to-mic latency.
- Better microphone routing: Muesli now keeps dictation and meeting capture app-scoped where possible, honors your selected microphone, and avoids holding idle mic resources after dictation.
- More reliable meeting capture: meetings now choose a safer microphone route before recording starts, with health checks that can warn when the local mic path is silent or degraded.
- Live meeting transcript view: active meetings can show an incremental Live transcript, and checkpoint recovery can preserve partial transcript text if the app is interrupted.
- Fewer false meeting prompts: scheduled meeting and browser-audio detection have been tightened to avoid prompts from unrelated audio or stale meeting signals.
- Update infrastructure migration: Sparkle feeds, release assets, download links, and Homebrew metadata now use the Muesli-HQ organization paths.
Quality and Release Validation
- Updated Sparkle to 2.9.3.
- Expanded tests around AudioQueue fallback, route-aware dictation, route-aware meeting mic capture, live transcript recovery, scheduled meeting notifications, VAD boundaries, and update-flow validation.
- Signed, notarized, stapled, and verified by Apple.
