Gobi Desktop 2.0 TODO Items

• Checking for Claude login status ([Issue](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/1886 "https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/1886))
• Bug reporting skill & skill management
• Terminal Rendering issue after clear on Windows
• JSON output streaming in AI4PKM repo - this helps with updating Claude progress in real-time so that experience is less boring
• JSON input streaming in AI4PKM repo - this helps latency because AI4PKM for orchestrator can be up and running all the time streaming input to input stream instead of spawning a process every single message
• ElevenLabs TTS
• Mute TTS
• Killing ai4pkm for saving tokens (Issue))
  • In conversational mode - sometimes, if I say (or type) multiple messages (before ai4pkm respond), some messages get dropped by claude. (will get worse when we start to kill ai4pkm)
• Langauge option for Orchestrator
• Language option for STT
• Chat history

2026-1-13

2025-12-30

• Hotkey configuration in App Settings page
• Fixed Claude Powershell Set-ExecutionPolicy issue
• Small indicator in Vault icon does not get updated when enable/disable vault
• Add wake word behavior -> Passive / Conversational / Manual
• Manual end smartturn detection toggle
• Prefer system-wide claude/codex/gemini over bundled, but for node/python use bundled
• Play start sound effect for start recording for all modes

2025-12-29 Part 2

• New chat --> Cancel existing processes
• Unzipping criterial change from version change (major, minor, patch) to only major or minor
• Running ai4pkm in app terminal
• Mic ON/OFF button (mic mute/unmute)
• Cancelling STT should not be done on "voice_start" (new sentence detected in passive/ambient mode) or sending chat

2025-12-29

• Disable killing ai4pkm when canceling operation. There is [issue with resuming session in early termination of previous session](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/7004](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/7004)
• Temporarily disable "Claude Auth" button

• Langauge select for Orchestrator language (ai4pkm language)
• Language option for STT

2025-12-28

• Added FOR AI4PKM message on splash
• Chat session management change
  • Refreshing session in app launch --> Persist session and "New chat" button to reset
  • Chat log (AI/History) is now {date}-{sessionUUID}.md instead of {date}.md per session
  • Chat entry inside the chat log doesn't have sessionUUID anymore, only {User/Gobi}|{timestamp}>
• Add "Claude Auth" button that generates auth token for 1 year expiry. It opens a Claude login website automatically. No need to run claude from terminal after first install. Click this button.
  • It's always there because [there is no way to check if claude is logged in or not.](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/1886)
  • There is open issue for [failing to refresh auth token.](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/12447#issuecomment-3625344644)
    • But because the button generates token safe for 1 year, should be okay for now
• Removed Orchestrator mode (passive/conversational) and added a button for passive. Now orchestrator has 3 communication mode
  • Passive: listening and transcribing only (STT -> ai4pkm) + optional periodic processing
  • Conversational: smartturn detection and continuous conversation (idle --> STT -> ai4pkm -> TTS --> back to idle)
  • Manual: one turn conversation (STT -> ai4pkm -> TTS)
• Voice files are saved to userData folder with 7 day retention.
• Added markdown format hyperlink resolution in chat message boxes and message bubble.
• Bug fixes for recording button behaviors
  • Robust cancelling behavior
  • "Manual mode" now use VAD before running STT (reduce hallucination)
• Block opening AI4PKM window when it's in splash screen
