Current Behavior

Hyprnote currently uses macOS’s Accessibility API to detect when certain meeting apps—like Zoom—are active. For instance, when the Zoom client opens, Hyprnote triggers a notification to help users create an ad-hoc meeting note.

Problem

This approach limits support for platforms like Slack Huddles or Discord, which often remain open persistently. Since these platforms don’t trigger new window events, Hyprnote cannot reliably detect when a real-time conversation starts.

Proposed Solution

Transition the meeting detection logic from relying on window activity to detecting microphone usage. This would allow Hyprnote to support a broader range of real-time communication tools and more accurately identify when meetings are happening.
