v0.4.0

Yapper v0.4.0

Voice-to-text that transcribes on-device, refines with AI, and pastes at your cursor.

✨ New

• Dynamic model selection — pick the LLM in both VS Code and API Key modes
• Markdown in history — history cards render Markdown with expandable text
• Smarter refinement — improved prompts for error correction, spoken punctuation, and self-correction
• Help screen — in-app guides for Dictionary, Snippets, Refinement Style, and Code Mode

🐞 Fixes

• Fixed WebSocket bridge URL (missing trailing slash → 400 errors)
• Fixed silent refinement failures (proper error on Close frame)
• Fixed mic access persisting after exit (cleanup + PID tracking)
• Fixed recording animation getting stuck after first use
• Fixed WPM metrics calculation

Bug Fix

• Fix crash on launch: Panel repositioning was calling setFrameOrigin: from a background thread, causing EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP) with "Must only be used from the main thread". Now dispatched to main thread via run_on_main_thread.
