- Enable Tauri devtools feature so right-click Inspect works in release
- Open devtools automatically on launch for debugging
- Add log_frontend command: frontend can write to ~/.voicetonotes/frontend.log
- Sidecar logs go to %LOCALAPPDATA%/com.voicetonotes.app/sidecar.log
- Frontend logs go to %USERPROFILE%/.voicetonotes/frontend.log

Major refactor: sidecar is no longer bundled in the installer. Instead,
it's downloaded on first launch with a setup screen offering CPU vs CUDA
choice. This solves the 2GB+ installer size limit and decouples app/sidecar.
Backend:
- New commands: check_sidecar, download_sidecar, check_sidecar_update
- Streaming download with progress events via reqwest
- Added reqwest + futures-util dependencies
- Removed sidecar.zip from bundle resources
- Restored NSIS target (no longer size-constrained)
CI:
- Each platform builds both CPU and CUDA sidecar variants (except macOS: CPU only)
- Sidecar zips uploaded as separate release assets
- Asset naming: sidecar-{os}-{arch}-{variant}.zip
Frontend:
- SidecarSetup.svelte: first-launch setup with CPU/CUDA radio choice,
progress bar, error/retry handling
- Update banner on launch if newer sidecar version available
- Conditional rendering: setup screen → main app flow

Tauri's build script overflows the stack when processing resource globs
matching thousands of files from PyInstaller's ML output (torch, pyannote).
Instead of bundling the sidecar directory directly:
- CI zips the sidecar output into a single sidecar.zip
- Tauri bundles just the one zip file (no recursion)
- On first launch, Rust extracts the zip to the app data directory
- Versioned extraction dir (sidecar-{version}) ensures updates re-extract

Tauri's externalBin only bundled the single sidecar executable, but
PyInstaller's onedir output requires companion DLLs and _internal/.
The binary was also renamed with a target triple suffix that
resolve_sidecar_path() didn't look for, causing it to fall back to
dev mode which used a compile-time CI path (CARGO_MANIFEST_DIR).
- Switch from externalBin to bundle.resources to include all sidecar files
- Pass Tauri resource_dir to sidecar manager for platform-aware path resolution
- Remove rename_binary() since externalBin target triple naming is no longer needed
- Remove broken production-to-dev fallback that could never work on user machines

Project files (.vtn):
- Save Project: serializes transcript, speakers, audio path to JSON file
- Open Project: loads .vtn file, restores audio/transcript/speakers
- User chooses filename and location via save dialog
- Replaces SQLite-based project persistence (DB commands remain for future use)
- Text edits update in-memory store immediately, persist on explicit save
- Fix Windows path separator in project name extraction
AI chat:
- Markdown rendering in assistant messages (headers, lists, bold, code)
- Better visual distinction with border-left accents
- Styled markdown elements for dark theme

- Add update_segment Tauri command (calls existing update_segment_text query)
- Wire onTextEdit handler from TranscriptEditor to invoke update_segment
- Edits are saved to SQLite immediately when user presses Enter

Project persistence:
- save_project_transcript command: persists segments, speakers, words to SQLite
- load_project_transcript command: loads full transcript with nested words
- delete_project command: soft-delete projects
- Auto-save after pipeline completes (named from filename)
- Project dropdown in header to switch between saved transcripts
- Projects load audio, segments, and speakers from database
AI chat improvements:
- Markdown rendering in assistant messages (headers, lists, bold, italic, code)
- Better message spacing and visual distinction (border-left accents)
- Styled markdown elements matching dark theme
- Improved empty state and quick action button sizing

- Add diarize.download IPC handler that downloads the pyannote model
and returns user-friendly error messages (missing license, bad token)
- Add download_diarize_model Tauri command
- Add "Test & Download Model" button in Speakers settings tab
- Update instructions to list both required model licenses
(speaker-diarization-3.1 AND segmentation-3.0)
- Make all HuggingFace URLs clickable (opens in system browser)

- Redirect sys.stdout to stderr in Python sidecar so library print()
calls don't corrupt the JSON-line IPC stream
- Save real stdout fd for exclusive IPC use via init_ipc()
- Skip non-JSON lines in Rust reader instead of failing with parse error
- Set Tauri window background color to match dark theme (#0a0a23)
- Add inline dark background on html/body to prevent white flash
- Use Svelte tick() to ensure progress overlay renders before invoke
- Improve ProgressOverlay with spinner, better styling, z-index 9999

- Rewrite SidecarManager as singleton with OnceLock, reusing one Python
process across all commands instead of spawning per call
- Separate stdin/stdout ownership with dedicated BufReader to prevent
data corruption between wait_for_ready and send_and_receive
- Add ensure_running() for auto-start on first command
- Fix asset protocol URL: use convertFileSrc() instead of manual
encodeURIComponent which broke file paths with slashes
- Add +layout.svelte with global dark theme, CSS reset, and custom
scrollbar styling to prevent white flash on startup
- Register AppState with Tauri .manage(), initialize SQLite database
on app startup at ~/.voicetonotes/voice_to_notes.db
- Wire project commands (create/get/list) to real database queries
instead of placeholder stubs
