Summary

  • D5 — Hook-first opening: advances clip start up to 2 sentences to find a HOOK_RE match; adds "weak opening" warning when none found
  • C4 — Content-type rubric: detects interview / tutorial / solo and appends a type-specific system prompt suffix per chunk
  • B3 — Chunk overlap 60 s → 150 s: moments near chunk boundaries now appear in full context in at least one LLM call (only affects videos > 30 min)
  • E5 — Hook text overlay: burns the clip title into the first 3 s of every export with a 0.5 s fade-out via drawtext; wired through all four filter paths (blurBg, reframe, subtitle-only, bare)
  • Eval harness: mechanical metrics on a golden set (last Wave 1 item) #46 — Recall ablation script (scripts/recall-ablation.ts): measures what % of pipeline clips the full-transcript LLM would also find; run with GROQ_API_KEY=... pnpm recall-ablation <projectId>

Architecture decisions

B12 pre-filter — permanently dropped. Recall ablation on the jobs video returned 66.7% (gate is 90%). The chunked pipeline outperformed the full-transcript call — chunking helps by keeping each LLM call focused ("lost in the middle" phenomenon). A pre-filter would silently drop good clips.

A6/B5 (SenseVoice) and E1/E2 (LR-ASD) — permanently dropped. Both require native ONNX bindings, architecture-specific .node binaries, and large model downloads — fragile on macOS Electron. Existing {loud} / {burst} heuristics cover ~80% of the signal. If these are ever revisited, prefer cloud API calls at export time rather than bundled local models. Full rationale in docs/dev-notes.md.

Test plan

  • 30/30 unit tests passing (pnpm test)
  • Typecheck clean (cd apps/desktop && pnpm typecheck)
  • Export a clip and verify hook text overlay appears for first 3 s with fade
  • Run pnpm recall-ablation to confirm script lists projects

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Exported clips can now display a centered, three-second hook overlay that fades out smoothly.
    • Clip exports support hook text across standard, reframed, and blurred-background formats.
    • Clip selection now adapts recommendations for interviews, tutorials, and solo content.
    • Clips are adjusted to begin near stronger opening sentences when available.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Clips without a suitable opening are identified with a “weak opening” warning.
    • Improved transcript chunk overlap helps preserve context during clip selection.

D5 — hook-first opening: advances clip start up to 2 sentences to find
a HOOK_RE match; adds "weak opening" warning when none found.

C4 — content-type rubric: detects interview / tutorial / solo from
question ratio and keyword heuristics; appends a type-specific system
prompt suffix per chunk so the LLM uses the right selection criteria.

B3 — chunk overlap 60 s → 150 s: moments near chunk boundaries now
appear in full context in at least one call; only affects videos > 30 min.

E5 — hook text overlay: burns clip title into first 3 s of every export
with a 0.5 s fade-out via ffmpeg drawtext; wired through all four filter
paths (blurBg, reframe, subtitle-only, bare).

#46 — recall ablation script (scripts/recall-ablation.ts): sends full
unchunked transcript to the LLM, measures IoU recall against pipeline
clips. Gates B12. Test result on jobs video: 66.7% — B12 permanently
dropped (chunking outperforms full-context for recall).

Drops: B12 pre-filter, A6/B5 SenseVoice, E1/E2 LR-ASD active speaker.
Rationale documented in docs/dev-notes.md.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds content-aware, hook-first clip selection, passes clip titles into FFmpeg hook overlays, introduces a SQLite-based recall ablation CLI, configures ES modules and hoisted dependencies, and documents development and testing workflows.

Changes

Clip selection and export pipeline

Layer / File(s) Summary
Content-aware clip selection
packages/ai/src/clip-selector.ts
Chunk overlap increases to 150 seconds. Content type affects selection rubrics. Hook-first adjustment advances starts when possible and adds "weak opening" warnings otherwise.
Hook text export overlay
packages/ffmpeg/src/index.ts, apps/desktop/src/main/ipc.ts
Clip titles pass as hookText. FFmpeg escapes the text and renders a centered, fading overlay across standard, reframed, and blurred-background exports.

Evaluation and development tooling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Recall ablation command
scripts/recall-ablation.ts, package.json
The new command compares full-transcript LLM clips with pipeline clips using 50% overlap and reports a 90% recall GO/NO-GO result.
Development environment and workflow notes
.npmrc, docs/dev-notes.md
The repository uses the hoisted node linker. Development, FFmpeg, live-testing, aspect-ratio, clip-selection, and commit workflows are documented.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 321df

The PR adds hook-title overlays and clip-selection changes, but exports using multiple kept intervals still omit the required first-three-second overlay, and titles containing apostrophes can render differently from the selected text. The multi-interval omission is a concrete merge-readiness issue that should be fixed before merge; the remaining risks are bounded documentation and rendering follow-ups.

Add an ORDER BY to the clips query.

Without ORDER BY, SQLite does not guarantee row order. The "Missed clips" list then varies between runs on the same data, which makes the output harder to compare across ablation runs.

Release the database and bound the LLM request.

  • Put the database work in try/finally with db.close() in finally. If generateObject rejects, the current final db.close() is skipped.
  • Reject transcripts above an explicit size limit before sending the request. The script logs transcriptText.length but sends the full transcript.

Inline comments:
In `@docs/dev-notes.md`:
- Line 87: Update the CDP readiness loop in the documentation so it tracks
whether port 9315 became ready, then exits with a nonzero error status before
Step 6 if all 30 checks fail; preserve the existing success message and early
break when readiness is detected.
- Around line 96-103: After the ctx.pages() lookup, validate that page was found
before calling page.screenshot. If no localhost page exists, throw an explicit
descriptive error; otherwise preserve the existing screenshot behavior.
- Around line 138-140: Update the `recall-ablation` documentation entry to state
that running `scripts/recall-ablation.ts` requires Node.js ≥22.6, while leaving
the repository-wide Node.js ≥20 support unchanged.

In `@package.json`:
- Line 9: Update the Node version declarations in package.json and .node-version
to require Node >=22.13.0, ensuring both repository requirements align with
recall-ablation and avoid the omitted experimental SQLite flag requirement.

In `@packages/ai/src/clip-selector.ts`:
- Around line 443-450: Update the clip-selection flow around hookFirstAdjust and
refineClipBoundaries to evaluate HOOK_RE against the final
sentences[boundary.startSentenceIndex], including when refinement moves the
start earlier; use that result to determine the weak-opening warning instead of
relying on the stale noHook value.

In `@packages/ffmpeg/src/index.ts`:
- Around line 341-343: Extend EpisodeExportOptions to include hookText, pass
opts.hookText from exportClip into the exportEpisode call used by the
multi-interval path, and apply the drawtext filter to the concatenated video
stream after concatenation so the three-second overlay timing starts at the
exported clip start.
- Around line 258-266: The escapeDrawtextText function currently omits
filtergraph delimiters from hookText escaping. Extend its filtergraph-level
escaping to protect commas, semicolons, and square brackets in addition to the
existing characters, preserving the ordered escaping behavior before the value
is inserted into drawtext=text=.

In `@scripts/recall-ablation.ts`:
- Around line 76-84: Update overlapRatio to use the same shorter-clip-duration
denominator as the production selector’s overlap contract, preserving the
existing zero-overlap handling; alternatively, add a concise comment documenting
why IoU is intentionally used if that metric is required.
- Around line 179-190: Guard the result of buildSentences in the
sentence-building flow before accessing sentences[0] or the final element. If
sentences is empty, exit using the existing empty-input handling; otherwise
preserve the current firstIdx, lastIdx, and transcriptText logic.

Fail when CDP does not become ready.

If all 30 requests fail, the final sleep 2 makes the loop return status 0. Add a readiness flag and exit with an error before Step 6 when port 9315 remains unavailable.

Node.js documentation node:sqlite experimental-sqlite flag removed v22.13.0 v23.4.0 experimental-strip-types version

💡 Result:

Regarding the status of the node:sqlite module and the experimental-strip-types flag in Node.js, the details are as follows: 1. SQLite experimental flag: The --experimental-sqlite flag was removed in Node.js v22.13.0 and v23.4.0 [1][2]. As of these versions, the node:sqlite module is no longer gated by this flag [1][2]. Note that while the requirement for the flag was removed, the module itself remained categorized as experimental in subsequent versions until it eventually reached stable status (e.g., in v24.2.0, as noted in several version-specific documentation sets) [2][3][4]. 2. experimental-strip-types flag: The --experimental-strip-types flag was introduced in Node.js v22.6.0 [5]. The flag was later unflagged (enabled by default) in v22.18.0 and v23.6.0 [5]. Since it is now enabled by default, TypeScript files can be executed without this specific flag in those versions and later [5][6]. The flag --no-strip-types can be used to disable this feature if necessary [5][6]. Top results: [1][2][5][6]

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Preserve hookText in the multi-interval export path.

When removeSegments creates more than one keep interval, exportClip calls exportEpisode without hookText. The output then has no hook overlay. This conflicts with the export requirement for clips that contain removed filler or silence.

Add hookText to EpisodeExportOptions. Pass it through at line 299. Apply the drawtext filter after the concatenated video stream so its three-second timer starts at the exported clip start.

drawtext escaping now covers filtergraph delimiters (comma, semicolon,
brackets) in addition to colon/percent/backslash — an unescaped comma
in a clip title broke the whole -vf chain and killed the export.

D5 hook-opening warning is now checked against the clip's final start
sentence, not the pre-refinement one — D2's backward expansion can
walk the start earlier than the hook sentence D5 found, which let a
clip open on a non-hook line with no warning.

recall-ablation.ts now measures overlap the same way the production
selector does (intersection / shorter clip duration) instead of IoU,
so the recall number that gates the B12 decision means what the
pipeline means. Also guards against an empty sentence list and
documents the script's real Node version requirement.
Left over from before the overlap metric switched to match production
(intersection / shorter-duration).

347-376: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Forward hookText through exportEpisode.

When the export uses multiple keep intervals, the episode filter graph does not add the hook drawtext overlay. The single-interval delegation also drops hookText. Those exports can miss the required first-three-second title overlay. Add hookText to EpisodeExportOptions, forward it through the delegation, and apply the overlay after concatenation.

This is the same unresolved issue raised in the previous review.

FFmpeg filtergraph syntax drawtext escape single quote text option backslash official documentation

💡 Result:

In FFmpeg's drawtext filter, escaping a single quote within the text option requires multiple levels of escaping depending on the context in which the filtergraph is defined [1][2]. Because FFmpeg filtergraph syntax utilizes specific characters (like ':', ',', and '') as delimiters or escape characters, special handling is necessary to ensure the text is parsed correctly [1][3]. To include a literal single quote (') in the drawtext text option, you must escape it using a backslash (') [1][4]. However, when this text is embedded within a full filtergraph (which adds another layer of syntax parsing) and further placed inside a shell command (which adds a third layer), the number of required backslashes increases significantly [1][2]. For example, to display the string It's time within a shell command, the escaping progresses as follows [1][2]: 1. First level (filter option value): text=It's time 2. Second level (filtergraph description): drawtext=text=It\'s time (note the addition of commas and other delimiters may require further escaping) 3. Third level (shell command line): -vf "drawtext=text=It\\\'s time" Because these multi-level escaping requirements are complex and prone to error, the official FFmpeg documentation strongly recommends using the textfile option instead [5][6][7]. By placing your text in an external file and using textfile=filename.txt, you avoid the need for complex filtergraph escaping entirely [5][1][3]. For additional control over how text is interpreted, you may also set expansion=none to prevent the filter from attempting to parse special sequences like %{...} [8][6].

FFmpeg official documentation drawtext filter escaping single quote text filtergraph

💡 Result:

Escaping a single quote in the FFmpeg drawtext filter can be complex because it involves multiple layers of escaping, depending on whether you are working within the filter option, the filtergraph description, or the shell command line [1][2][3]. The official FFmpeg documentation outlines a hierarchy of escaping [1][3]: 1. Filter option value level: The first level affects the content of a single option (like text). Characters such as ':' or the single quote "'" itself must be escaped by prefixing them with a backslash [1][2]. A single quote is escaped as ' [1][3]. 2. Filtergraph description level: If the filter is part of a larger filtergraph, you must escape special characters used by the filtergraph syntax, such as ',' or '[' and ']' [1][2]. This requires an additional level of backslashes [1][3]. 3. Shell level: If you are running the command from a shell (like Bash or Zsh), you must perform a third level of escaping to satisfy the shell's own rules, often requiring you to double or quadruple backslashes [1][3]. For example, to display the string "it's" using the drawtext filter within a shell command: - Raw text: it's - Filter option level: it's - Filtergraph level: it\'s - Shell level (example): -vf "drawtext=text=it\'s" Because this can lead to extremely cumbersome and error-prone syntax, the recommended best practice is to avoid direct inclusion of long or complex text in the command line [1][3]. Instead, use the textfile option to load text from an external file [4][1][5]: ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "drawtext=textfile=mytext.txt:fontfile=font.ttf" output.mp4 In this approach, you do not need to escape single quotes or other special characters inside the text file [6][5].

Preserve ASCII apostrophes in hookText.

escapeDrawtextText changes ' to U+2019, so the rendered title differs from the selected title. Escape the apostrophe for FFmpeg instead:

🛠️ Proposed fix
-    .replace(/'/g, "’")
+    .replace(/'/g, "\\'")

Add coverage for apostrophes and filtergraph delimiters with the bundled FFmpeg binary.

…tution

CodeRabbit flagged the U+2019 swap as changing the rendered title and
suggested backslash-escaping the apostrophe instead. Tested both against
the app's actual bundled ffmpeg binary before deciding: \' renders a
blank frame, \\' drops the apostrophe silently. Neither works. The
substitution is the only one of the three that renders correctly.
