+## 6.91.0 - Dictation that learns your voice: prompt v4 on Sonnet, Your style, the meaning guard, an opt-in literal register
+
+2026-10-24 22:45: extend AI polish into "a Grammarly but further for voice dictation", remove ungrammatical spoken
+segments, and steer polish toward the speaker's own voice from the corrections they make. Plan r2 (23:30), option C
+(00:40, after canary C1 split by model) and the QA fix pass (2026-10-25 05:40). Server half only; COS Control 0.5.344
+builds the capture, the classifier and Your style.
+
+**What changes by default** (every other change needs a switch or a client that asks for it):
+- **Sonnet** (Mac dictation, G2 messages and prompt drafts that name Sonnet): prompt v4 instead of v3; the meaning guard
+  after the model; the learned style, which applies only once a client has saved rules (Control 0.5.344 does, from the
+  person's edits).
+- **Haiku** (the server default when a client names no model), **Luna and any other model**:
+  nothing. Prompt, answer and guards are 6.90.0's (golden and route tests). The same for Sonnet on v3 (the environment
+  or "Previous polish") and for meeting lines on every model.
+- **Every finalize answer** that ran the model adds the optional fields below (`polishOutcome`, `polishPrompt`,
+  `learnedStyle`, and on Sonnet v4 `polishRegister`, `guard`). Old clients ignore them (C6).
+- The literal register is **off** unless `COS_DICTATION_REGISTERS=1`.
+
+- **Prompt v4, the default on Sonnet only** (`server/lib/dictation-clean.ts`). v3 plus self-corrections first, with
+  worked examples that are not the eval's cases ("actually", "no wait", "I mean", "sorry", "or rather", "make that",
+  "scratch that", and now "never mind"), restarts and repetition, grammar fixed in the speaker's own words (no synonyms,
+  no added formality), "never add an em dash or an arrow", and a closing checklist next to the dictation. The link and
+  safety rules are v3's word for word. **Haiku, Luna and any other model keep v3**, byte for byte the 6.90.0 prompt
+  (golden), because v4 failed canary C1 on Haiku (below). `COS_DICTATION_POLISH_PROMPT` (v1 to v4, or the alias
+  `COS_DICTATION_PROMPT_VERSION=3`) and the new "Previous polish" option override every model. Meeting lines stay on v3.
+- **Registers** (`server/lib/dictation-register.ts`), from the `context.app` Control has sent since 0.5.325 and the
+  server never read. **The literal register is opt-in** (`COS_DICTATION_REGISTERS=1`), because terminal targets are
+  mostly AI prompts in prose, not shell commands, and literal would stop resolving their corrections, fixing their
+  grammar and capitalizing them. By default every app, terminals included, gets the `default` register (on Sonnet:
+  v4 plus the learned style). Opted in, `literal` covers terminals (iTerm2, Terminal, Ghostty, Warp, WezTerm,
+  Alacritty, kitty): it keeps every word but fillers and stutters, adds no capital and no closing period, and a
+  deterministic word check sends the input instead when the model changed a word (`guard: "literal"`). One table,
+  published to Control by `GET /api/dictation/learned-style` (`registers`) whether or not it applies; that route and
+  `/rules` say `registersEnabled`. The app name is never logged.
+- **Your style, the learned style** (`server/lib/dictation-learned-style.ts`, `GET/PUT/DELETE
+  /api/dictation/learned-style`). Codes only on the wire: `drop_phrase` with a phrase from a closed allowlist (no
+  negation, scope word, number, built-in filler or word that often carries meaning) or `contractions` use/avoid,
+  register `all`. The server renders the words from its own templates, owns `text`, `hash`, `revision` and
+  `updatedAt` (400 if a client sends them), and refuses over 20 rules or 1,500 characters (413). `hash` is 8 hex of the
+  rendered text (finalize and telemetry carry it); `revision` is 8 hex of the text AND the switch, and a PUT with
+  `baseRevision` is conditional (409 `base_revision_mismatch` with the current revision), so a stale save undoes
+  neither newer rules nor a newer Off. `enabled: false` stops it applying and keeps the rules; `DELETE` (Reset) clears
+  the rules and keeps the switch as it was. A save that fails is 500 with one log line carrying a code only. Stored
+  0600 in `<data>/dictation-learned-style.json`,
+  validated again on every read; a bad file reads as empty and logs a code only. The `learned-style` tag is stripped by
+  both sanitizers. Prompt order: built-in rules, the literal block, your instructions, the learned style (framed as
+  observed from your edits, with its limits after it), the closing line, known spellings, the dictation. The learned
+  style and the literal register apply **only to Sonnet with v4**, the one pair canaries C2 and C3 ran on; every other
+  pair gets neither and answers `learnedStyle: false` with no `polishRegister`. `COS_DICTATION_LEARNED_STYLE=0` stops
+  it everywhere (the capability then says `enabled: false`). Never for meeting lines; a terminal gets it like any app,
+  except when `COS_DICTATION_REGISTERS=1` makes it literal.
+- **Meaning guard** (`server/lib/dictation-meaning-guard.ts`), deterministic, after the model and the link guard, on
+  `message` and `prompt_draft` only. **The guard runs where v4 runs: on Sonnet with v4 only**, the canaried pair, like
+  the learned style and the literal register. Haiku, Luna, any other model, prompt v3 (the environment or "Previous
+  polish") and meeting lines get no meaning guard and no literal check, so their answers are 6.90.0's; the link guard
+  still runs everywhere, as in 6.83.1. On the text the model was given (`cleaned`), it compares negations (not, n't,
+  cannot and the apostrophe-less forms speech-to-text writes, "dont", "cant", "isnt" and the like, fold to one token;
+  never, no, none, nothing, nobody, neither, nor, without, unless, except), numbers (digits, number words, ordinals,
+  compound ordinals: "twenty fifth" is 25 like "25th"; a digit with a scale word: "$2 million" is two million; %, $, k,
+  thousand, clock times including "half past ten" as 10:30 and "quarter to five" as 4:45, am/pm, digits inside a word),
+  weekdays and months, and names (mid-sentence capitals, dictionary terms, speaker names; sentence-initial words and
+  "I" are not names). With no correction marker in the dictation, negations are counted ("not saying we should not
+  ship" losing one "not" trips; a stutter counts once); with one, they are compared as sets. A numbered or bulleted list
+  the speaker asked for ("numbered list", "number one", "bullet points") may add line-start list numbers. A dropped
+  token, or an added negation or number, refuses the answer: the pre-polish text goes out
+  with `polishOutcome: "guarded"`, `guard: "<kind>"` and `polishSkipped: "failed"`, so Controls 0.5.325 to 0.5.343 log
+  `fillers_only:failed` or `skipped:failed` and never claim polish. A dropped token is excused only when a correction
+  marker follows it and a same-kind token replaces it; a negation never is (only the words of "no wait", "wait no",
+  ", no," and "never mind" are not negations). "actually" alone is a marker only when punctuation sets it off or the
+  replacement follows within 3 words; "wait" alone only when punctuation sets it off ("tell Marco to wait for Dana"
+  keeps Marco). Name re-spellings to a dictionary term or a near form count as kept; a dictation that is not English
+  skips the name check. Counts-only log line. Known gaps, not claimed: reordering, before/after/only, and a list number
+  standing in for a dropped number of the same value. `COS_DICTATION_MEANING_GUARD=0` turns it off.
+- **Finalize answers** add, all optional: `polishOutcome` (`polished`, `unchanged`, `guarded`, about the model step;
+  `unchanged` is the model returning its input, which Control logged as `failed:not_polished`; an empty model answer
+  is a failed polish, `polishSkipped: "failed"`, as in 6.90.0, never `unchanged`), `guard` (`negation`,
+  `number`, `date`, `name`, `link`, `literal`; the link guard keeps `polishSkipped: "link_guard"`), `polishPrompt`
+  (`v3` or `v4`, whenever the model ran on one of them), `learnedStyle` (true with `learnedStyleHash`, or false) and
+  `polishRegister` (Sonnet with v4 only).
+  Skip paths send no `polishOutcome`. The token audit row adds the same codes; never a word or the app name.
+- **Previous polish** (`GET/PUT /api/dictation/polish/options {promptVersion: "default" | "v3"}`): Control can roll
+  back without a terminal, and G2 follows. Stored 0600 in `<data>/dictation-polish-options.json`; `"default"` deletes
+  the file. The environment wins when it names a version.
+- **Capability:** `capabilities.dictationCleanup.learnedStyle {protocol: 1, maxChars: 1500, maxRules: 20, enabled}`
+  and `capabilities.dictationCleanup.polishOptions {protocol: 1}`, next to `customInstructions`, on `/api/health` and
+  `/api/models`. `GET /api/dictation/polish/rules` adds `promptByModel`, `rulesByPrompt`, `stylePairs`, the learned and
+  register blocks exactly as the model sees them, and `?model=`.
+- **Refactor:** the outbound polish pipeline moved from `routes/prompt-drafts.ts` to `lib/dictation-polish-pipeline.ts`
+  unchanged in order, so the evals call it instead of a copy. The three polish mutation gates were retargeted.
+- **Switches** `COS_DICTATION_PROMPT_VERSION`, `COS_DICTATION_LEARNED_STYLE`, `COS_DICTATION_MEANING_GUARD` and
+  `COS_DICTATION_REGISTERS` are forwarded by the managed runtime contract. With `COS_DICTATION_POLISH_PROMPT=v3`,
+  `COS_DICTATION_REGISTERS` unset or 0, `COS_DICTATION_LEARNED_STYLE=0` and `COS_DICTATION_MEANING_GUARD=0` the
+  prompt is byte-identical to 6.90.0 (golden). Golden too: Sonnet with a terminal app and registers at the default
+  gets exactly the no-app prompt; with `COS_DICTATION_REGISTERS=1` it gets the literal prompt.
+
+**Canaries** (445 `claude -p` calls of a 450 cap, subscription CLI, warm path where noted; synthetic text only except C4):
+- **C1 Sonnet: PROVEN.** 50-case set (45 plus "never mind" b11 and four preserve cases: plain "actually", "never mind
+  the cost", "no" as an answer, "I mean it"), warm, v3 vs v4 interleaved: v4 backtracks 11/11, preserve 15/15, every
+  category recall 1.000, 0 fillers left, 0 added words, 0 dashes; v3 had backtrack recall 0.977 and 2 added words.
+  Backtrack plus new-preserve slice runs 2 and 3: 11/11 and 4/4 both. Format canary (v4, 40 cases): 40/40, so v3 was
+  not rerun (adaptive rule). Run 1 used the pre-tuning closing line; runs 2 and 3 and the format canary the final one.
+- **C1 Haiku: DISPROVEN** (why v4 is Sonnet only). Run 1, before tuning: v4 backtracks 10/11, b01 came back
+  "order five, actually six cases of the red" (correction kept, lowercase); format fillers 2 vs v3's 0, l03 kept
+  "numbered list" ("numbered list\n1. draft the brief..."); v3 itself missed b10. Tuning round 1 (closing line made a
+  checklist; failing slice rerun, 17 calls): backtracks 11/11, but b05 came back "The meeting moved to three." (dropped
+  "tell the team", backtrack recall 0.964 vs v3's 1.000) and l03 "Numbered list:\n1. Draft the brief..." (fillers 1).
+  Runs 2 and 3: backtracks 11/11 both; new preserve 4/4 then 3/4, p12 "I think the first draft was better." (dropped
+  the meaningful "actually"). The next tuning round starts from these four.
+- **C1b: PROVEN.** Unit cases for every normalization class and kind (98 tests): every planted drop and addition
+  caught; "five, actually six", "Priya ... actually Dana", "never mind" and ", no," do not trip. Over good outputs: 1
+  false trip in 39 judged-good real C4 outputs per arm with the guard as it was at 31c59dd (2.6%, above the 2% bar;
+  pooled with synthetic it was 0.28%, which flatters it, because the guard was tuned against those). The QA fix pass
+  then fixed the formats QA probes caught ("$2 million", "20 million", "1.5 million", "October 25th", "the 21st",
+  "March 31st", "dont", numbered lists, "half past ten") and the misses (one of two negations, bare "wait" and
+  "actually"); every stored synthetic output was rescored offline with the final guard, no new calls: 0 false trips
+  in 356 judged-good outputs (C1 runs, x3, tuning, stacked, format). The real-data rate is not re-measured, because no
+  real output text was kept. Found and fixed on the way: "three sixty" written "Jewel360" (digits inside a word), and
+  "Bottle POS" written "bottlepos.com" (a plural fold).
+- **C2: PROVEN** (Sonnet, v4). No-rule arm vs rule arm, k=3, inputs where the base does the opposite: applied 0/12 vs
+  12/12 (drop "honestly" 0/6 vs 6/6, contractions 0/6 vs 6/6), +100 points, 0 meaning changes; probes "I like it" and
+  "what kind of car" kept 6/6.
+- **C3: PROVEN** (Sonnet, v4, registers opted in, learned style saved and on). "git status", "cd into the server folder", "npm run build
+  dash dash watch" from iTerm2 and Terminal: 0 added capitals, 0 trailing periods, 0 word changes, learned style
+  applied 0/3. An unknown app's prompt equals the no-app prompt (golden).
+- **C4: PROVEN** (private replay of the 40 most recent real records with heard text, Sonnet, cold, scores only, no
+  text kept). v3 vs v4 with fictional rules (drop "honestly", drop "literally", contractions): meaning kept by the
+  normalizer 38/40 vs 38/40, after the enum judge (1 call, 4 flagged) 39/40 vs 39/40, and the one change was refused by
+  the guard in both; fillers left 1 of 11 vs 1 of 11; 0 dashes both; guard trips 2 vs 2 (1 false each); learned style
+  applied 40/40 in the v4 arm. Backtracks: 2 records hold a marker word and both arms kept it, so the proxy is
+  inconclusive, not a regression. No terminal record was among the 40. (Both arms ran the guard then; since the QA fix
+  pass only the v4 arm would.)
+- **C5: PROVEN** (relative). Same run, warm, v4 vs v3: Haiku p50 3,326 vs 2,992 ms (+11.2%), p90 4,396 vs 4,261
+  (+3.2%); Sonnet p50 3,024 vs 2,949 (+2.5%), p90 4,460 vs 3,997 (+11.6%). Stacked arm (Haiku, v4 + 1,033-character
+  instructions + the largest learned style, 767 characters): p50 3,147 vs 2,794 (+12.6%), p90 3,646 vs 3,520 (+3.6%),
+  backtracks 11/11. C4 cold, Sonnet: v4 p50 4,346 vs v3 4,713. The absolute Haiku bar is measured after install.
+  **Pending before npm latest:** the stacked arm on the pair that ships, Sonnet with v4, instructions and the learned
+  style (about 15 calls). The stacked number above is Haiku, which does not get v4 or the style.
+- **C6: PROVEN** (route and golden tests). Every new route is 401 without the token; an old client body works; a skip
+  path sends no `polishOutcome`; a port of the 0.5.343 helper and `choose` logs a guarded answer as
+  `fillers_only:failed` or `skipped:failed`, never applied; all four switches off, and Haiku outside a terminal, give the
+  6.90.0 prompt byte for byte.
+
+**Known issue (pre-existing, not changed here):** Haiku starts about 1 output in 3 in lowercase, on v3 and v4 alike
+(12 of 50 v3 and 16 of 50 v4 outputs in C1 run 1). The 45-case scorer does not see case; follow-up: score sentence
+capitals in the eval, then decide a fix, which would change behaviour for every Haiku user.

+## 6.90.0 - Mac recordings tell voices apart: unnamed Voice 1, Voice 2, renamed as text only
+
+Miles, 2026-10-23 09:35: "Voice 1/2 + rename", split out of 6.87.0 at 10:06. Every saved Mac recording was 100% `Ext`:
+Nemotron heard a second voice in about 1 chunk in 10, and the 0.88 naming floor and same-label turn merge threw that
+away. This keeps Mac audio unnamed (no calibration exists to name anyone from call audio) and keeps its voices apart.
+
+- **Unnamed meeting-wide voices** (`server/lib/nemotron-final.ts`, `unnamedVoicePass`). At save, a Mac recording (the
+  `mac_system_audio` sidecar or a `mac_` id, every chunk with words strict `high-confidence`, none carrying a real name)
+  now takes the meeting-wide Nemotron final pass in an unnamed mode instead of `skipped: speaker_policy`. A channel that
+  holds the floor, one-sided, in 3 or more chunks becomes `Voice 1`, `Voice 2`, ... in order of first speech. No voice
+  profile is read or written, the wearer is never consulted, and `speakers` is left as saved. A crowded room (more than
+  4 such voices, or all 8 Nemotron channels in use) is `voices_crowded`, and a room with no such channel is
+  `voices_unconfident`: both stay `Ext`, byte for byte. A voice that would have turns but lead no chunk (or the reverse)
+  is dropped back to `Ext` and the rest renumbered, so every `Voice N` can be renamed in one action. Words, line breaks
+  and the human-correction rule are the final pass's own guarantees, unchanged; the original transcript stays under
+  `diarization.originalTranscript` with `labels: "unnamed"`. Glasses and every other strict capture keep the 6.73.6 skip.
+- **Switch:** `COS_MAC_VOICE_LABELS`, on by default; `0`, `false`, `off` or `no` gives 6.89.0's behaviour. Forwarded by
+  the managed runtime contract.
+- **`Voice N` is a placeholder everywhere a name is checked:** `isUnattributed` (review panel, final pass), the relabel
+  `PLACEHOLDER_LABEL`, the sidecar `speakers` filter at save, the batch segment `speakers` filters
+  (`isNamedSegmentSpeaker`), `isRealLabel` in live naming, and a merge into a Voice label never writes it into `speakers`.
+- **Rename is text only.** The existing `POST /meeting/:id/relabel` renames `Voice 2` to a person. `enrolNamedVoice` now
+  refuses any Mac recording with `skipped: "mac_capture"` before it reads a store, so a Mac rename can never enrol or
+  train a profile (until now that was true only because Mac banks no embeddings).
+- **Shadow scoring (calibration only).** A Mac chunk the 0.88 floor leaves `Ext` also logs its best profile match at the
+  ordinary 0.55 floor to `speaker-calibration.jsonl` under `event: "mac-shadow"`, `matched: false`. The label stays
+  `Ext`; nothing is enrolled; nothing goes to server.log.
+- **Mac Nemotron tracks** are identified with `prioritizeOwner: false` and tagged `mac-nemotron-track`, so their
+  calibration rows are separable from the glasses' `nemotron-track`.
+- **Replay** (read-only, clones of six 10/16 to 10/22 Mac sidecars against Miles's private audio copy, scratch data dir):
+  3 of 6 took voices (4, 1 and 1 voices; 76 of 370 chunks with words split into two or more voices in the 4-voice call),
+  3 stayed `Ext` as crowded (all 8 channels in use, 7, 5 and 7 confident channels). Found and fixed on the way: text-less
+  Mac entries carry no policy marker, which refused every real recording.
+- **Tailscale nudge follow-up (6.89.0):** a boot, wake, network or tailscale trigger that finds the phone already back logs
+  one line, `[tailscale-nudge] trigger=<t> outcome=already_reconnected`. Trigger and outcome only, never an address.

+  `COS_DICTATION_LEARNED_STYLE=0` stops it applying everywhere. The finalize
+  answer says `learnedStyle: true` and `learnedStyleHash` (8 hex), never the
+  rules.
+- **Meaning guard.** After the model, for messages and prompt drafts, and only
+  where v4 runs on Sonnet (Haiku, Luna, any other model and prompt v3 get no
+  guard, so their answers are 6.90.0's): if a negation, number, weekday or
+  month, or name the speaker kept is missing from the answer (or a negation or
+  number appears that was never said), the pre-polish text goes out with
+  `polishOutcome: "guarded"`, `guard: "<kind>"` and `polishSkipped: "failed"`.
+  A self-correction may drop what it replaced. "2 million", "25th",
+  "dont", "half past ten" and a numbered list you asked for read as what you
+  said. The log line carries counts only. `COS_DICTATION_MEANING_GUARD=0` turns
+  it off.
+- **Finalize answers** add, all optional: `polishOutcome` (`polished`,
+  `unchanged` or `guarded`, about the model step; an empty model answer is a
+  failed polish, never `unchanged`), `guard`, `polishPrompt` (`v3` or `v4`,
+  whenever the model ran), `polishRegister`, `learnedStyle` and
+  `learnedStyleHash`. Skip paths send no `polishOutcome`.
+- Clients detect it with `capabilities.dictationCleanup.learnedStyle`
+  (`{protocol: 1, maxChars: 1500, maxRules: 20, enabled}`) and
+  `capabilities.dictationCleanup.polishOptions` (`{protocol: 1}`).
