Field notes
The described flow is designed to stop at transcription and cleanup: it formats lists and puts file names in backticks, but does not answer the spoken question or perform the requested task. The page names Whisper small.en via whisper.cpp and Qwen 2.5 7B via llama.cpp, both running on the Mac. It also gives a warm cleanup time of 0.4–0.7 seconds and describes the initial model download as 5.2 GB.
