Retrying a kept recording transcribed it and put the text on the clipboard,
leaving you to find the right tab and paste. The app already had the answer: the
module was recorded with the audio. Retry now opens that tab and puts the text
in its transcript box.
Two things had to be true first.
The module was not actually being recorded. transcribeAudio never sent one, so
the server stored its default for every upload — all 28 rows in audio_backups
said "recording", and a retry had nowhere to send anything back to. Each
module's call now tags its own upload.
And the names disagreed. The recorders tagged 'encounter', 'soap', 'dictation'
while the recording-started events said 'enc', 'sick', 'dict'. One table now
holds the mapping and resolves the aliases, so the recorder that tags the
upload, the backup row that labels it and the retry that delivers it cannot
drift apart again.
Existing text is appended to, never replaced: a retry usually recovers
something on top of a live transcript, and overwriting would lose the words the
browser did hear. The box only exists once its tab's markup has been fetched, so
delivery polls briefly rather than guessing a delay, and falls back to the
clipboard if the tab never opens. An empty result says so rather than claiming
success. Backup rows now name their source and the button reads "Retry into
SOAP Note" instead of "Retry".
Verified in a browser: enc resolves to encounter, delivery switched tabs and
produced 'existing live transcript\n\nRECOVERED TEXT'.

Measured in a real browser against the app rather than reasoned about.
The transcript boxes are contenteditable divs, and an editable div zooms on
focus exactly like an <input>. The earlier 16px sweep covered input, textarea
and select, so every workspace tab still zoomed while the calculators did not —
which is exactly what was reported. Every focusable text control in every tab
now measures 16px at phone width; the count of ones below it is zero.
Three ways a recording could end with nothing to show for it:
- Safari supports none of the audio/webm types and throws NotSupportedError
when handed one. Six modules built their own recorder on resume with
"opus, else audio/webm", so resuming threw there and the recording stopped.
There is now one codec chain in the app, and no module constructs a
MediaRecorder of its own.
- audio-recorder-failed is dispatched on document, and the encounter tab
stopped its recording on any of them. The assistant's microphone failing
ended a consultation being recorded in another tab. The recorder now
travels with the event and the listener checks it is its own.
- The server answers {success:true, text:''} for silence, and five modules
assigned that straight into the transcript — emptying the box the browser
had been filling live. It reads as a recording that vanished. Text is now
required before overwriting, and a recording that captured nothing says so
instead of resetting the button over an empty box.
Also: the citation counters were registered on prom-client's default registry
while the app serves its own, so they were never scraped. They read zero at
/metrics now instead of being absent, which is what the Grafana panels need.
And the reference linter passes for the first time, so scripts/e2e.sh gets past
its preflight: KaTeX is vendored (it was referenced by the assistant's LaTeX
rendering but never shipped — three 404s a page load and no math), and the
JavaScript left behind by the removed image picker, saved-chats toggle, image
gallery and visual-output panel is gone.

Three concurrent themes from this session:
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
ED ENCOUNTERS — per-stage cards + consolidate→MDM finalize
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
UX redesign per Daniel's feedback ("every stage note should be shown,
if AI is told to modify that particular note then the modified version
is used in final mdm"):
- Each generated stage stays on screen as its own editable card with
its own embedded "Don't Miss" panel. No more single rolling note
element that gets replaced on each generation.
- gatherCurrentNotes() reads contenteditable text from each stage card
before any operation (advance, finalize, persist) so inline edits
flow into the next AI call and the final consolidate.
- Stage badge is now state-accurate. "Stage N (recording)" with yellow
background after Add-more before generation; "Stage N" with gray
after generation. Fixes the bug where the badge flipped to Stage 2
the moment Add-more was clicked.
- Save & Done now runs TWO server-side AI calls in /finalize:
1. edConsolidate (new prompt) → polished single final note that
integrates every stage chronologically (HPI / ROS / PE / ED Course /
A&P with disposition).
2. edFinalize (rewritten with full inline 2023 AMA E/M element
rubric — problems / data / risk definitions, level mapping with
concrete examples) → MDM JSON.
- Two new cards render after finalize: blue-bordered Final Consolidated
Note + green-bordered MDM. Stage cards become read-only.
- partial_data on the saved row now stores {stages, finalNote, mdm,
finalized} so resume re-renders the full state.
Why two-call finalize: a single combined prompt makes the model cut
corners on one task. Two focused calls cost ~2× latency at the very end
of an encounter — acceptable since finalize is a one-time terminal
action, not a per-stage hot path.
Files: public/components/ed-encounter.html, public/js/ed-encounters.js,
src/routes/edEncounters.js, src/utils/prompts.js (edConsolidate added,
edFinalize rewritten).
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
EXTENSIONS / PAGERS — visual polish
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Multiple iterations based on Daniel's feedback:
- Layout: align-items:flex-start so action buttons stay pinned top-right
when long numbers wrap (was align-items:center → buttons drifted into
the text area, causing visible overlap).
- Number: word-break:break-all + min-width:0 + font-feature-settings:tnum
so long numbers wrap within their column instead of pushing under the
buttons. Click-to-copy with a 0.55s green flash + ✓ copied badge.
- Phone/pager Font Awesome icon next to the number in the type color —
at-a-glance type signal (replacing an earlier 3px left stripe that
Daniel found visually bulky).
- Name: font-weight 700, font-size 14.5px, color g900, letter-spacing
-0.012em — scan-target headline typography for long lists.
- Alternating subtle backgrounds by index (white vs #fafbfc) so a long
list reads as distinct rows.
- Hover: card lifts 1px with a soft shadow; action buttons fade from
55% to 100% opacity. Cubic-bezier transition on transform.
- Entrance: staggered fade-up animation per card (35ms × index, capped
at 12). prefers-reduced-motion media query disables motion.
- Empty state: 48px FA icon + heading instead of plain gray text.

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
DOCS REORGANIZATION + APPLICATION-LOGIC DOCS + ADMIN VIEWER
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Document moves (preserving git history via git mv):
BROWSER_WHISPER_SETUP.md → docs/browser-whisper-setup.md
BROWSER_WHISPER_TROUBLESHOOTING.md → docs/browser-whisper-troubleshooting.md
DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md → docs/developer-guide-extended.md
EMBEDDINGS_SETUP.md → docs/embeddings-setup.md
FEATURES_EXPLAINED.md → docs/features-explained.md
IMPROVEMENTS.md → docs/improvements.md
OPENID_SETUP.md → docs/openid-setup.md
TRANSCRIPTION_OPTIONS.md → docs/transcription-options.md
README.md updated with the new paths + a Documentation section that
links to docs/logic/ at the top.
New application-logic doc series (~8,300 lines total) at docs/logic/.
Built with 5 parallel doc-writing agents per Daniel's "use multiple
agents" directive. Each doc explains how a part of the app actually
works — application logic, data flow, design decisions, sacred zones,
how-to-extend recipes — at a depth that lets a new dev (or an AI
assistant) modify the code confidently.
docs/logic/README.md — index + recommended reading order
docs/logic/architecture.md (2166 L) — frontend IIFE pattern, lazy tab
load, backend route convention,
schema, encryption, deployment
docs/logic/clinical-notes.md (1546L) — every note tab + helper trio
docs/logic/bedside-and-calculators.md (1373L) — bedside ES module
pocket + calculators + PE Guide
+ suture selector
docs/logic/auth-admin-learning.md (1281L) — auth (local+OIDC+2FA) +
admin panel + Learning Hub
(Quiz engine logic at sub-detail
only — TODO follow-up)
docs/logic/ai-and-voice.md (1128 L) — callAI 5-provider routing,
prompts, voice/STT, helper trio
docs/logic/ed-encounters.md (821 L) — multi-stage ED + MDM (this
session's worked example)
Admin-only docs viewer:
- New route /api/admin/docs/{tree,file}: recursively walks docs/, returns
the tree as JSON; /file?path=X validates path stays inside docs/ and
renders markdown via marked. Both gated by req.user.role==='admin'.
- New tab "Docs" (book icon) in the sidebar, hidden by default and
revealed in auth.js when user.role==='admin' (same pattern as the
existing Admin and CMS tabs).
- New component public/components/admin-docs.html: split-pane layout
with a tree sidebar + filter input + a markdown reader pane.
- New module public/js/admin-docs.js: lazy-loads the tree on first tab
activation, renders collapsible folders, persists expanded state and
last-opened path via UIState. Server-rendered HTML so no client
markdown parser needed.
- CSS for the viewer (responsive split-pane, code-block styling, table
scrolling, etc.).
- Mounted at /api/admin/docs (NOT /api) — important: mounting a router
with router.use(authMiddleware) at /api accidentally 401s every other
/api/* path (caught and fixed during testing — /api/health was 401'ing).
Files: docs/* (moved + new), README.md, public/components/admin-docs.html
(new), public/js/admin-docs.js (new), src/routes/adminDocs.js (new),
public/index.html (tab + section + script), public/js/auth.js (admin
gate + logout cleanup), public/css/styles.css (viewer styles), server.js
(mount).
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
KNOWN GAPS (TODO follow-ups)
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
- Learning Hub quiz engine (MCQ / multi-select / T-F scoring + attempt
tracking + progress dashboard) is covered at the architectural level
in docs/logic/auth-admin-learning.md but not drilled into the quiz
data model and scoring flow. Worth a focused follow-up doc.
- ED finalize: if MDM step JSON parse fails, server returns 502 with
the consolidated finalNote in the error payload, but client doesn't
surface the partial result. Add a "MDM failed, retry" affordance.
- No e2e Playwright coverage for ED encounters or the new docs viewer.
Four changes batched:
1. ED Encounters tab (new) — multi-stage emergency note with don't-miss
tooltips and 2023 E/M MDM finalize. New route /api/ed-encounters
(generate per-stage + finalize MDM), new ed-encounters.js owning all
client logic, new ed-encounter.html component, new template_ed memory
category. Persists draft to localStorage every keystroke and to
saved_encounters on stage advance. encounters.js touched only to
register the new tab in sessionStorage restore + tabMap (save and
idempotency code untouched).
2. Notes model selector — /notes/from-voice now accepts a client-supplied
model (validated by the existing callAI allow-list); falls back to the
admin default. Added <select class="tab-model-select"> to notes.html
so the existing app.js populator handles options + default.
3. Remove AI-learning-from-corrections — deleted correctionTracker.js,
POST /memories/correction, the corrections branch in
/memories/context, the settings UI section, the FAQ entry, and all
dead trackAIOutput/saveCorrection guards in callers. Legacy
correction_* DB rows are filtered (NOT LIKE) rather than dropped, so
no destructive migration.
4. Fix notes AI framing — /notes/from-voice prompt no longer assumes
"physician dictation". Plain notes (shopping lists, reminders,
ideas) now match the dictation tone instead of being forced into
clinical structure.
All 46 tests pass.
