Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes Change: Other Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to No transcription behavior ships in this PR, but the design would permit exposure of audio and transcripts and could produce incorrect results if implemented as written. Resolve these contracts before treating the design as implementation-ready. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The proposed design permits unencrypted connections for audio uploads and transcript callbacks. Nothing is implemented by this PR, and no audio leaves the archive until a server is configured, but these transport choices would expose sensitive content if carried into the rollout.

- Line 227: Update the documented Idempotency-Key definition in the
transcription API so it incorporates the audio hash and result-affecting
settings, including engine and preset. Preserve deduplication for requests with
identical audio and settings while ensuring changed settings produce a distinct
key.
- Line 247: Update the OpenAI fallback request so it does not use
TRANSCRIPTION_PRESET as the model; use a separate OpenAI model setting or the
existing whisper-1 fallback instead.
- Line 102: Update TRANSCRIPTION_URL validation so server requests carrying
TRANSCRIPTION_API_KEY and uploaded audio are sent only over HTTPS; reject HTTP
URLs and preserve the existing warning behavior without including the configured
value.
- Around line 201-202: Update the backfill query’s ORDER BY clause to use a
persisted chronological column, such as the message timestamp, so LIMIT :per_run
selects the newest media first; do not rely on lexical ordering of m.id.
- Line 19: Update the audio bubble description in the transcription
documentation to say it keeps its play button, while the transcription UI adds
the waveform and the rounded square “->A” button beside it. Preserve the
existing expand-and-collapse behavior description.
- Line 103: Update the TRANSCRIPTION_CALLBACK_URL documentation to permit only
HTTPS URLs with a hostname or an empty value; remove HTTP from the accepted
schemes and preserve the documented behavior for invalid values.

Describe the waveform as a planned addition.
The current audio bubble has no waveform. Since this document is not implemented yet, do not state that the bubble keeps one. State that the transcription UI adds the waveform and places ->A beside it.

Require HTTPS for server requests that carry the bearer key.
TRANSCRIPTION_URL accepts http://, but the job request sends TRANSCRIPTION_API_KEY in Authorization. If an operator configures HTTP and an attacker can observe that network path, the attacker can read the key and uploaded audio. Require HTTPS before sending credentials or files.

Require HTTPS for TRANSCRIPTION_CALLBACK_URL.
The design accepts http:// for callback delivery, and callback bodies can contain transcript text. An on-path observer can read transcripts when HTTP is configured. HMAC provides authenticity and integrity, not confidentiality. Permit only https:// or an empty value.

Use a chronological column for newest-first backfill.
Media.id is a string assembled from chat, message, and media-type values. Its lexical descending order does not establish chronological order. With LIMIT :per_run, the query can select older media before newer media. Order by the message timestamp or another persisted chronological column instead.

Include result-affecting settings in the idempotency key.
The key contains only the audio hash, but the design promises a separate transcript when the engine or preset changes. The server returns the existing job for the same key and file, so a new row can receive the old result while claiming the new preset. Include result-affecting settings in the key, while retaining deduplication for identical requests.

Do not send the akou preset as the OpenAI model.
TRANSCRIPTION_PRESET defaults to auto and is documented as ignored by non-akou servers. This fallback uses it as model, so the default request sends model=auto. Use a separate OpenAI model setting or use the fallback model, such as whisper-1.

Voice messages in the archive are audio only, so finding something said in one means playing every note. docs/TRANSCRIPTION.md designs transcribing every voice message and round video through an akou server that can run anywhere, stored beside the audio as rows that are never overwritten, searchable, and shown in the bubble the way the official apps do.

Voice messages in the archive are audio only. Finding something said in one means playing every note, and nothing in the viewer or the exports can search them.
This adds
docs/TRANSCRIPTION.md: a design for transcribing every voice message and round video automatically through an akou server that can run anywhere, storing the transcript beside the audio as a row that is never overwritten, making it searchable, and showing it in the bubble the way the official apps do. The feature is on by default, and until a server is configured the only visible effect is a nudge in the viewer.It is a design, not an implementation, and not a decision to ship. The rollout section lists seven slices, each its own PR. The storage section states what the design deletes, overwrites and forgets against the archive principle: nothing on its own; status advances on the transcript row, and the existing flag-gated removals take transcript rows with them.
