Preflight Checklist

  • I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
  • This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
  • I am using the latest version of Claude Code

What's Wrong?

On the desktop app (macOS). It was working fine before the new UI so last week etc. When tapping capslock to turn on the voice record. That works and I can record etc, but soon as I let go or need and want it to accept the message for it to transcribe whatever I just said it is auto exiting and not rendering or showing that transcription :( Hope this helps! Happy to help QA or get this fixed if I can. Thanks team!

What Should Happen?

It should transcribe my voice and allow me to send the message how it used, to.

TL;DR

The issue can be potentially resolved by investigating the handling of the capslock key release event in the desktop app, specifically how it affects the transcription UI.

Guidance

  • Investigate the code that handles the capslock key release event to ensure it doesn't inadvertently close the transcription UI.
  • Verify if the transcription process is completing successfully before the UI is closed, and if the result is being properly displayed.
  • Check for any recent changes in the UI code that might be causing this regression, focusing on the interaction between the voice recording feature and the transcription display.
  • Consider adding logging or debugging statements to track the application's state when the capslock key is released, to better understand the sequence of events leading to the UI closure.

Notes

The provided information suggests a regression introduced by the new UI, but without access to the specific code changes or more detailed logs, it's challenging to provide a precise fix. The steps above are aimed at guiding the investigation towards the most likely cause.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Given the regression nature of the issue and the lack of specific code details, a workaround might involve temporarily reverting UI changes related to the voice recording and transcription features, if possible, to isolate the problem.
