Scribe v2.4.1 - chore: A health and stability release focused on clearing all warnings

Scribe v2.4.1

A health and stability release focused on clearing all Obsidian plugin review warnings — no new features, but several real bug fixes surfaced along the way.

⚠️ Requirement change

• Minimum Obsidian version is now 1.8.7 (released Feb 2025). Scribe already relied on newer APIs like Vault.process and frontmatter processing; the manifest now declares this honestly instead of claiming compatibility with 0.15.0.

🐛 Bug fixes

• Deleting a recording now respects your "Deleted files" preference — audio cleanup uses Obsidian's trash instead of permanently deleting the file.
• Fixed a broken filename-collision retry when creating notes: the fallback path compared an error object to a string, silently discarded its own retry, and re-threw anyway. Collisions are handled by the random-suffix path, and the dead code is gone.
• Append-to-active-file with no active file no longer relies on an unsafe type cast — the fallback (create a new note and open it) is now properly null-checked.
• Recording stop errors now always reject with a real Error, so failure messages surface correctly instead of as opaque values.

🔒 Security

• Resolved all npm audit advisories (2 high, 1 moderate):
  • langsmith 0.5.4 → 0.8.2 (prototype pollution, redaction bypass)
  • ws 8.19.0 → 8.21.1 (memory disclosure, DoS)
  • uuid removed from the dependency tree entirely
• Replaced the banned dotenv package with Node's built-in process.loadEnvFile() (build tooling only).

🧹 Code health

• Cleared the full Obsidian review-bot
  • All floating promises are now explicitly awaited or fire-and-forget (void) - data: URLs are decoded locally inative fetch
  • Modal onOpen/onClose now match Obsidian's declared signatures - Removed unsafe as TFile / `as HTMd unnecessary assertions
  • Enum comparisons are now type-safe (OBSIDIAN_PATHS converted to a const object; typed language-option helpers)
  • Callback props declare this: void to prevent accidental this rebinding
