Meeting Notes 1.3.0-beta.1
Pre-release
Pre-release
Beta of the 1.3.0 release. Everything since 1.2.0:
New
- Meeting tasks can shape the notes. Right before the structured notes are written, the meeting's ChatGPT task is asked which discussion points should influence them — corrections, decisions, and emphasis you typed mid-meeting now flow into the summary. Meetings without a task are unaffected.
- Summaries settings pane. The summary language moved there from General, and the instructions that shape each meeting's notes are now editable (with Restore Default). Structural rules — grounded in the transcript, no invented facts — stay fixed.
- Summary length scales with the meeting. Roughly 250–400 words per half hour instead of a fixed cap, so a 3-hour meeting no longer targets 400 words.
- Calendar-style archive. Meeting folders are grouped by ISO week (
2026/W31/2026-07-31/…). Existing archives migrate automatically, with a zipped backup on the Desktop first. - One home per meeting. A finished meeting lives exactly once, in the archive; the private spool only holds active and recoverable captures.
- Storage insight. Settings → Storage shows disk usage split by documents and audio, with a cleanup button for finished-meeting audio.
- Choose your models. Meeting tasks and summaries can each pick a model from the live Codex list; the panes present themselves as ChatGPT with the proper mark.
- Small comforts. Option-click Discuss to start a fresh task, the meeting list rolls over automatically at midnight, transcripts merge ASR fragments into readable timestamped lines, and a meeting can be deleted while it is still finalizing.
Fixed
- A title typed during recording is saved even without pressing Return.
- Meetings no longer show up twice after finalizing while remote sync is on.
- Deleting a meeting mid-finalization now actually cancels the work instead of transcribing, summarizing, and syncing first.
- Startup folder normalization no longer wipes calendar participants, and is stable across timezone changes.
- Web-hook requests carry their meeting metadata headers again for archived meetings.
- Error status lines show a warning icon instead of a checkmark.
Hardened
- Sync retries back off exponentially (capped at 10 minutes) instead of hammering every 10 seconds; hooks fire once per change, never again on retries or relaunch.
- Web-hook Authorization headers moved from plaintext preferences into the Keychain.
- Summary generation has a watchdog timeout, so a hung helper can no longer stall finalizing forever.
- Transcript content is fenced as data in the summary prompt, so instruction-like text spoken in a meeting cannot steer the notes.
- Privacy permissions survive rebuilds: the code-signing requirement is pinned to the team.
