Logue 1.0.0

Logue 1.0.0

The initial public open-source release of Logue, under the MIT License.

Logue is a native macOS app for AI meeting notes and document editing that runs entirely on your
Mac. Transcription, speaker diarization and LLM inference are all on-device via MLX on Apple
Silicon. There is no account, no telemetry gate and no cloud dependency — the only network calls
are on-device model downloads, update checks, and features you explicitly opt into.

A later release is available. See 1.0.1,
which fixes two significant defects in this build — see Known issues below.

---

Meeting intelligence

• Real-time on-device transcription via Apple's SpeechTranscriber (macOS 26+), streaming
  audio directly with no buffering delay.
• Speaker diarization using FluidAudio's streaming Sortformer model, with a batch fallback.
• Simultaneous microphone and system audio capture through ScreenCaptureKit — records both
  sides of an online meeting, and no bot joins the call.
• Smart Minutes — structured summaries with key decisions, themes and follow-ups.
• Smart transcript highlights — important moments surfaced automatically, with your manual
  bookmarks always preserved.
• Action item extraction — tasks, owners and due dates pulled from the transcript.
• Meeting prep briefings generated from linked documents and prior notes.
• Meeting ↔ document links, bidirectional, with back-link chips in the editor.

AI writing editor

• Block-based rich text editor built on NSTextView with full SwiftUI integration.
• Inline grammar and clarity suggestions with one-tap acceptance.
• Tone analysis and adjustment for any selected passage.
• Vocabulary enhancement, validated against the actual document — suggestions that do not
  appear in your text are discarded rather than offered.
• Rewrite and review panels — rephrase a passage, or get structural feedback on the whole
  document.
• Fact verification, flagging claims that may need a source.
• Full table support — creation, editing and context menus inside the editor.
• Writing goals for word count, reading level and tone.
• Writing modes and a template gallery, plus save-as-template for your own formats.

Ask Logue — agentic AI chat

• Multi-step agentic reasoning powered by LangGraph-Swift — it plans, reasons and executes
  multi-step workflows.
• Streaming responses, token by token.
• Inline Mermaid diagrams and LaTeX math rendered directly in the chat thread.
• Deep research mode with progress tracking for long-running multi-source tasks.
• Tool execution UI showing exactly what the agent is doing, with approval controls.
• Sources panel citing every document and meeting the agent consulted.
• Persistent, searchable memory across conversations.

Cross-app features

• A floating prompt bar (⌘⇧W) summoned over any macOS app.
• An inline assistant (⌘⌃I) that rewrites text in place in any text field.
• A live transcript island at the top of the screen, so a meeting keeps transcribing in view
  while you work elsewhere.
• A menu bar Command Center for starting and stopping recordings from anywhere.

These require Accessibility permission, which this build cannot obtain. See
Known issues.

Native macOS integrations

• Calendar — the agent reads upcoming meetings and can create, update and delete events.
• Reminders — read, add, update and complete reminders.

Both are opt-in through macOS permissions, and the data stays on your Mac.

Search, tasks and automation

• Unified ⌘K search across documents, meetings and action items in one keystroke.
• Full-text search (SQLite FTS5) — fast, ranked results across every transcript and document.
• Action item dashboard — every task from every meeting in one place, with filters
  (All / Pending / Overdue / Today / This Week / Completed), sort, search and a live overdue badge.
• Scheduled AI tasks — daily digests, automatic summaries and weekly reviews, run on-device.

Privacy and distribution

• On-device by default — inference, transcription and diarization run locally via MLX on
  Apple Silicon. Nothing is sent anywhere unless you opt into web search or an external provider.
• AES-256-GCM encryption at rest for meetings, transcripts, audio and documents.
• No account, no telemetry gate, no cloud dependency.
• Optional external AI providers (OpenAI/Anthropic-compatible) — your key, stored in the
  macOS Keychain, used only when you select it.
• Developer ID signed and notarized, with in-app auto-update over a signed Sparkle feed
  served from GitHub. There is no backend.

Known issues

Both are fixed in 1.0.1. They are
recorded here because they affect this build.

• Cross-app features do not work in this release. It shipped with the App Sandbox enabled,
  and a sandboxed process cannot be an Accessibility API client — no entitlement grants it. macOS
  never lists Logue under Privacy & Security → Accessibility, and it cannot be added by hand, so
  the ⌘⌃I inline assistant, global hotkeys, the Command Center and text replacement are all
  silently disabled. (#22)
• Meeting transcripts are truncated at 30 minutes. When recording stops, the live transcript
  is replaced by a re-transcription of an in-memory buffer capped at thirty minutes, so anything
  longer loses everything past that point.
