release 2026.08.24.02

Speech-to-text leaves the platform for the transcribe plugin. No schema, no
dependencies — a removal plus a catalogue entry.

The plan says explicitly not to install the plugin during the rollout. Which
hosts get transcription is the owner's call, made per host, and an install now
grants access to every role. Removing and installing in one unattended pass
would decide that for five machines at once.

Nothing is lost anywhere: no host had an STT endpoint configured, so the routes
this removes have never answered on any of them.

+
+**5 of 5 target hosts succeeded.** Two hosts skipped by plan, neither a failure.
+
+Every host went `2646842c` → `c813eef6`, the tag commit, by fast-forward. No host was dirty in tracked
+files. No `bun install` was run — the plan forbade it and `bun.lock` was untouched. No direct SQL was run
+and none was authorised.
+
+| Host | Before → after | db:push | plugins | `officer` | Result |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| `alpha` | `2646842c` → `c813eef6` | applied 2 statements (see below) | 13/13 | online, 73 → 74 | ✅ |
+| `fofos` | `2646842c` → `c813eef6` | applied 2 statements | 1/1 (gitea) | online, 26 → 27 | ✅ |
+| `production-pertento-bridge` | `2646842c` → `c813eef6` | applied 2 statements | 1/1 (gitea) | online, 5 → 6 | ✅ |
+| `deadpool-rezio-bridge` | `2646842c` → `c813eef6` | applied 2 statements | 2/2 (email, offscale) | online, 11 → 12 | ✅ |
+| `macbookpro` | `2646842c` → `c813eef6` | applied 2 statements | none installed | online, 13 → 14 | ✅ |
+| `officer-dev` | `c813eef6` (already) | not run | not run | **not restarted** | ⏭ skipped — self |
+| `edge-pertento-bridge` | — | — | — | — | ⏭ skipped — `docs/servers.md` |
+
+Every process on every host reported `online` after the restart: alpha 20/20, fofos 8/8,
+production-pertento-bridge 15/15, deadpool 9/9, macbookpro 6/6. No process came back `errored` and none
+failed to restart.
+
+## The plan said `db:push` must report no changes. It did not, on any host.
+
+This is a finding, and it is **not** what the plan's stop-condition describes, which is why the rollout
+continued.
+
+`bun db:push` printed `Changes applied` on all five hosts. Run again in `--strict --verbose`, it wants the
+same two statements every time:
+
+```sql
+ALTER TABLE "command_hq_sessions" ALTER COLUMN "reference_paths" SET DEFAULT '{}';
+ALTER TABLE "music_now_playing" DROP CONSTRAINT "pk_music_now_playing";
+ALTER TABLE "music_now_playing" ADD CONSTRAINT "pk_music_now_playing" PRIMARY KEY("user_id","device");
+```
+
+**The same diff appears on `officer-dev`, this release's own source host, whose database has been running
+this schema for days.** That is the decisive check: the plan's condition is "that host and this tree
+disagree about something else", and no host disagrees with the tree — the tree disagrees with itself,
+identically, everywhere. It is the drizzle-kit mis-diff already documented in `src/databases/CLAUDE.md`
+under "Composite keys", here on a named composite **primary** key rather than a unique constraint, plus a
+spurious array-default diff.
+
+Verified by query per host rather than by exit code, as the doctrine requires:
+
+- `alpha` — `pk_music_now_playing` = `PRIMARY KEY (user_id, device)`; `reference_paths` default
+  `'{}'::text[]`. Both exactly what the schema code says.
+- `fofos`, `production-pertento-bridge`, `deadpool-rezio-bridge`, `macbookpro` — `reference_paths`
+  default `'{}'::text[]`. `music_now_playing` **does not exist** on these four (`information_schema`
+  count 0): the music plugin is not installed there, so there is nothing for that half of the diff to
+  touch. Not a fault.
+
+So no host's schema is wrong. What is wrong is that `db:push` cannot serve as the proof step this plan
+wanted it to be — it reports work on a database that already matches.
+
+**What the owner should know:** on `alpha`, where the table exists, every deploy drops and re-adds a live
+table's primary key for no reason. Harmless so far and verified intact afterwards, but it is real DDL on
+real data, repeated each release. The fix belongs in the schema code, not in a rollout.
+
+## Notes
+
+- `fofos` carries one untracked file, `scripts/chk.ts`. Noted, not a reason to skip — a fast-forward
+  cannot touch it.
+- `bun run plugins:update` restarts each plugin's sidecar itself. On `alpha` that is 13 sidecars bouncing
+  before the `officer` restart the plan asked for. Listed above as the plugin count; "restarted" is
+  therefore more than `officer` alone on every host but `macbookpro`.
+- `officer-dev` is **current in tree** at `c813eef6` but its `officer` process was not restarted, so it is
+  still serving the previous bundle. Restarting it is the owner's deliberate last step.
+
+## Not verified by this deploy
+
+The plan's visual check — open a `.m4a` and confirm the audio player shows no transcribe icon, while an
+image still offers OCR and a video still offers extract-audio. That needs a browser and a hard refresh,
+and no host was checked that way. The code is deployed; that it looks right is unconfirmed.

+# 2026.08.24.02
+
+Speech-to-text leaves the platform. It is a plugin now — `transcribe`, in the catalogue.
+
+**No schema change.** Nothing under `src/databases/**/schema.ts` moved. `bun db:push` stays a step because
+it is cheap and proves the database agrees with the code, but it must report no changes.
+
+**No dependency change.** `bun.lock` is untouched. **Do not run `bun install`.**
+
+## What is in it
+
+- **`api/stt/` and `server-settings/stt.ts` are gone**, along with `POST /chat/stt`,
+  `POST /file-browser/transcribe`, the FileViewer handler behind the button hidden last release, the
+  Settings → Speech to Text screen and the orphaned locale keys in all six locales.
+- **The transcription logic moved byte for byte** into `plugins/transcribe` — the two-pass
+  detect-then-transcribe, the 25 language priming prompts, the timeouts. Verified identical, not rewritten.
+- **`transcribe` is in the catalogue**, so it can be installed from `/plugins` on any host that wants it.
+
+## Installing the plugin is NOT part of this release
+
+This release only removes. A host that had speech-to-text configured loses it until somebody installs the
+plugin and points it at a server — and no host here had it configured, so nothing is lost anywhere.
+
+**Do not install it as part of the rollout.** Which hosts get transcription is the owner's decision, made
+per host, and an install grants access to every role. Report that the catalogue entry is available; leave
+it there.
+
+## Every host
+
+1. `git fetch origin --tags` then `git merge --ff-only deploy/2026.08.24.02`
+2. `bun db:push` — expect **no changes**. If it wants to alter something, stop and report it: this release
+   touched no schema, so a diff means that host and this tree disagree about something else.
+3. `bun run plugins:update`
+4. `pm2 restart officer`
+
+`officer` only at step 4. Step 3 restarts each plugin's own sidecar, which belongs in the report.
+
+**`macbookpro`:** append `/opt/homebrew/bin` to PATH for the `bun` commands, run `pm2` separately.
+
+## What to check, this release
+
+**Settings should no longer offer Speech to Text.** That screen is gone, and its absence is the visible
+change. If it is still there, the frontend bundle is stale — hard refresh before deciding it failed.
+
+The audio player's header should still show download and close, and still no transcribe icon. Images
+should still offer OCR and videos extract audio; those stay in the platform for now.
+
+No direct SQL is needed and none is authorised.
+
+## Hosts
+
+- **`edge-pertento-bridge`** — skipped, per `docs/servers.md`.
+- **`officer-dev`** — skip it. Restarting `officer` on the host running the rollout ends the rollout. It
+  already has this code and the plugin installed; name it as skipped and say so.

-// speech put them in play, and a character surname came back from a Monk episode as "Commas".
-// Everything here is ordinary conversational language for that reason.
-//
-// Each is written in its own language, since an English prompt on Portuguese audio biases the

-// load-bearing. Overflow is trimmed from the front, so nothing depends on the opening words.

-        TRANSCRIBE — hidden, not deleted, and the distinction is deliberate.

-        Speech-to-text is leaving the platform for a plugin of its own. Until that lands this button calls
-        `POST /file-browser/transcribe`, which refuses on every server here because no STT endpoint is
-        configured anywhere — so it is a control that can only fail, and one of those teaches people to
-        distrust the controls beside it.
-
-        Kept because the wiring is the useful part. When the plugin exists this becomes a call to it, and
-        the handler, the loading state and the sibling-markdown behaviour in FileViewerProvider are all
-        still correct; deleting would mean rediscovering them.
-
-        It may not come back here at all. The other route to the same job is the file browser's context
-        menu, which a plugin reaches with a task — and that path needs no button in this header.
