- STT_URL switches voice input to an OpenAI-compatible Whisper server
(e.g. speaches); without it the browser's recognition stays. Configured
by environment only, with limits for upload size, parallel jobs, hourly
budget per user and timeout. The demo always uses the browser.
- POST /voice/transcribe forwards recordings and returns the text; nothing
is stored. On startup MindSift waits for the server and asks it to
download the model if missing.
- Admin card shows the active mode and server state, with a test recording.
- docker-compose: optional "whisper" service (speaches 0.8.3 CPU, profile
"whisper", models in ./whisper).
