JS files are cache-busted by app version (?v=1.3.0), so browsers that
served stale v1.2.0 scripts will now fetch the updated voice-clone.js,
stt.js, style.css, and nav.js.

Conversation playground:
- Live speech preview: MediaRecorder sends accumulated audio to
/api/transcribe-bytes every 2.5 s; interim Whisper result shown in
the text input field while recording. Web Speech API tried first as
a faster path when available (HTTPS/localhost).
- VAD auto-stop: AudioContext AnalyserNode measures RMS every frame;
auto-stops after 1.5 s silence with a visible countdown. Auto-stop
toggle to revert to click-to-stop.
- Hands-free mode: mic auto-restarts after the agent finishes speaking
via audio.ended event + generation-counter cancellation. Hands-free
toggle (on by default) to disable.
Navigation:
- Persist active section and sub-page in localStorage; hard-reload
returns to the same page instead of always jumping to My Voices.

Perceived startup speed:
- index.html: animated shimmer skeleton (header + toolbar + 8 voice cards)
visible immediately; fades out when loader.js finishes
- WaveSurfer (57KB) and MDI icon font (394KB woff2) now served from
static/vendor/ — removes 3 render-blocking external requests from <head>
- Flag-icons CSS loaded async (rel=preload onload trick) — non-blocking
loader.js:
- Fade out skeleton + remove from DOM (300ms transition)
- Reveal page-sections after JS finishes loading
Conversation playground:
- Qwen3 thinking mode fix: fall back to delta.reasoning_content when
delta.content is empty so think-only LLM turns produce visible output
- Better error message with /no-think hint when LLM returns empty

config/ and logs/ are now host directories visible on the filesystem.
- docker-compose.yml: ./config → /home/app/.config/tts-voice-creator:rw
./logs → /logs:rw
Named volume tts-voice-creator-clone-and-design-2 removed.
- portainer-stack.yml: same change with absolute host paths.
- server.py: RotatingFileHandler writes INFO+ to /logs/app.log
(maxBytes=5MB, backupCount=3). Falls back gracefully if /logs
is not writable.
- .gitignore: track config/ and logs/ dirs via .gitkeep but exclude
settings.json, *.log and backups from version control.
Benefits:
- Settings and logs are human-readable on the host at any time
- Survives docker-compose down -v (was lost with named volume)
- Easy backup: cp -r config/ logs/ to any destination
- Can edit settings.json directly if needed

Previously: container names and dynamic card URL overrides only
written to localStorage — lost when accessing from a different
browser or after clearing browser data.
Now:
- engine_container_names added as persisted settings key (dict)
- All container name inputs tagged data-cn-key for loadSettings() lookup
- loadSettings() restores container names + dynamic URLs from server
- settings.js exposes _saveEngineContainerNames() and
_saveEngineLocalUrls() globally so engines.js / ai-backends.js
can call them on every input event
- Static cards (ai-backends.js initStaticDockerManagement): reads
saved name from engine_container_names first, localStorage fallback
- Dynamic Docker stack cards (engines.js): same priority for both
URL and container name; both write to server on change

_AUDIO_EXTS lives in core.voice, not core.audio. The dead alias
'_VOICE_AUDIO_EXTS' was never used anywhere in the file.

UploadFile | None = File(None) with from __future__ import annotations
caused FastAPI to still treat audio as required when omitted.
Changed to Optional[UploadFile] = None (no File() wrapper) so the
field is genuinely optional for text-input turns.

- Move mic-blocked warning into conv-chat-window (prepend) so it scrolls
with the chat instead of pushing the input bar off-screen
- Remove min-height:400px from conv-chat-window; give conv-chat-panel a
viewport-relative height so the input bar is always visible at the bottom
- loader.js: append ?v=<timestamp> to section fetches to bust browser cache
(was serving stale s-conversation.html after updates)

Frontend:
- Add pill-shaped text input + send button (→) to the left of the mic button
- Enter key or → click sends text directly without recording audio
- Input is disabled while a turn is processing; cleared on submit
- Welcome message updated to mention both input methods
- New CSS: .conv-input-bar, .conv-text-row, .conv-text-inp, .conv-send-btn,
.conv-divider (visual separator between text and mic sections)
Backend:
- /api/conversation/turn: audio is now optional (UploadFile | None)
- New text form field — when provided, STT step is skipped and text is
used as the transcript directly; SSE emits transcript event with stt_ms=null
- Raises 400 if neither audio nor text is supplied

Engine cards (all TTS + STT, dynamic Docker stack + static):
- Container name field now always visible on every card (was hidden for
absent/not-installed containers)
- Connect button moved out of URL row into a dedicated dc-controls-row;
restyled as solid blue primary CTA
- Connect now toggles to Disconnect (green) when reachable, persists state
- On successful connect, URL is auto-applied to Settings so the backend
appears in TTS/STT dropdowns immediately — no separate "Use as" click needed
- "Use as TTS/STT" button updated: larger, teal "apply" style, tooltip,
gains .active highlight once applied, right-aligned as the trailing action
- Unified control order on every card: [Connect/Disconnect] [Stop|Start|Restart] [Use as →]
- initStaticDockerManagement rebuilt to use the same dc-controls-row layout
as dynamic cards, moving .llm-local-ping from URL row at init time
Conversation section:
- Fix chrome://flags URL being white-on-grey inside the mic-blocked warning
box (global code{background:var(--panel)} overrode the inherited white text)
- Inline-styled the <code> element with a dark translucent background
- Added a Copy button so users can copy the URL without selecting invisible text
