Parakeet RNNT NIM measured at 550–605 MB (unified RAM), Magpie TTS at
982 MB, and Qwen3-TTS model at 4.3 GB on disk — replacing the placeholder
estimates that were too high across the board.

Conversation Playground (new section):
- WhatsApp-style chat UI with user/assistant speech bubbles
- Click-to-record mic button using MediaRecorder API
- STT → LLM streaming → TTS pipeline via SSE (POST /api/conversation/turn)
- LLM tokens stream into assistant bubble in real time
- Audio auto-plays when TTS synthesises the reply
- Right-side stats panel: STT / LLM TTFT / LLM total / TTS / Total with bar chart
- Turn history list with per-turn total time and pass/fail indicator
- Configurable: STT backend, LLM URL + model, TTS backend + voice, system prompt
- Conversation history maintained across turns (last 20 messages sent to LLM)
- GET /api/conversation/llm-models proxies model list from any OpenAI-compatible LLM
XTTS v2 backend:
- Registers xtts as a first-class TTS backend (xtts_url setting, display name,
capabilities, health/voice discovery, OpenAI-compatible generation)
- Added XTTS URL field to Settings → Connections
- Use-as-TTS button now saves to xtts_url (not tts_url)
- Batch benchmark backend select now refreshes alongside perf/preview selectors
VibeVoice fix:
- Added /voices to _TTS_VOICE_ENDPOINTS so VibeVoice voices are discovered

- Rename "LLMs" section to "Engines" with brain icon
- Add three sub-pages (Language Models / Speech to Text / Text to Speech) following the same nav-tree pattern as Settings and My Voices
- Rewrite s-llms.html: three s-engines-page divs, docker container grids (dc-grid-tts, dc-grid-stt), VibeVoice card in TTS section, static cloud API cards per category
- Add navEnginesCat() and applyEnginesPage() to nav.js; engines tree open/close in showSection()
- Remove obsolete initLlmCatTabs IIFE; fix dc-refresh-btn from ID to class-based querySelectorAll
- Make integration cards in Connect Apps collapsible (collapsed by default) with favicon/icon prepended to h3
- Unify all Engines card grids to minmax(380px, 1fr) so local, docker, and cloud cards are the same width
- Add s-engines-page CSS (display:none / is-active:flex)

- New s-performance section: dedicated Benchmark nav entry with run form,
per-session results table, RTF trend badge (faster/slower/stable), SVG
sparkline chart, and a History card backed by localStorage (last 50 sessions)
- Performance tab removed from Try It Out; element IDs unchanged so JS works
- renderIntegrationSnippets: adds Python MCP server + Claude Code .mcp.json
config snippets to the Connect Apps page (integration-card-wide styling)
- Save handler: persists all Captures settings fields (stt_language,
stt_preferred_backend, auto_refine, refine_model, refine_* toggles,
captures_default_voice) alongside existing settings
- CSS: integration-card-wide accent border, benchmark history rows, trend
badges, sparkline wrapper, bench-history-toolbar

New TTS backend: Kokoro FastAPI (82M) — OpenAI-compatible, 11 built-in
voices, only shows when server is reachable (~300 MB CPU, ~0.1× RTF).
New STT backends in Transcribe dropdown: faster-whisper (CTranslate2 GPU,
~70× RT, 1.5 GB VRAM), whisper.cpp (CPU/CUDA, ~8–15× RT, ~1 GB RAM),
Groq Whisper (fastest cloud, free 2 000 req/day, key shared with Groq LLM).
Backend help panels now show ⚡ speed · ⏰ latency · ⭐ quality · 💾 RAM
metric chips for all TTS and STT backends.
Active Docker Stack cards also get per-container metric chips.
AI Backends section: "Use as STT" / "Use as TTS" one-click buttons on
faster-whisper, whisper.cpp, and Kokoro cards apply URLs to Settings
without leaving the page. Groq Whisper card notes the shared key path.
Settings: Kokoro URL in TTS cluster; faster-whisper URL, whisper.cpp URL,
Groq API key in STT cluster; quick-fill buttons for all local STT engines.

- Add initLlmsSection() IIFE to app.js: copy buttons, API key persistence with eye toggle
and saved badge, local service URL persistence, Connect/Disconnect toggle with server-side
probe via /api/probe-url (avoids CORS), card turns green on success / red on failure
- Substitute 0.0.0.0 → host.docker.internal before probing (0.0.0.0 not routable from Docker)
- Add /api/local-containers, /api/probe-url, start/stop/restart endpoints to server.py
- Rewrite AI Backends section into Local / Online API categories with Docker stack grid,
local service cards (LLM/STT/TTS) with icons and editable URL inputs, online cloud API cards
- Add bind mounts for static/ and server.py so changes take effect without image rebuild
- Add dc-grid, llm-local-grid CSS with uniform minmax(310px,1fr) card layout
- Fix VOICE_HOST_DIR default via .env so voice folders survive container recreation

- New light UI: fixed 220px sidebar, single scrolling page, 8 named sections
- Static files split by concern: style.css, app.js, loader.js, nav.js
- Each page section is its own partial in static/sections/s-*.html
- loader.js fetches all section partials in parallel, then loads app.js and nav.js
- All original functionality, element IDs, and API endpoints preserved
