One-click recommended push-to-talk setup

The Shortcuts page now makes the recommended push-to-talk key a one-click choice on each device, keeps setup verification obvious, and improves Windows text insertion when BridgeSpace is nearby.

  • Use the recommended shortcut in one click. Shortcuts now shows the managed push-to-talk recommendation for this device and a Use Recommended button that sets it immediately.
  • Setup stays visible until verified. After selecting the recommended key, the page shows Run Setup until BridgeVoice verifies a native global press and release.
  • Safer Windows insertion. Windows dictation no longer falls back into BridgeSpace unless BridgeSpace was the actual target, and failed focus restores leave text on the clipboard for manual paste.

Added

  • Shortcuts now shows a prominent recommended push-to-talk callout with a one-click Use Recommended action. The key resolves from the native per-device recommendation: Fn / Globe on healthy Macs, Control + Option after macOS fallback, Ctrl + Win on Windows, and Ctrl + Alt on Linux.

Changed

  • When the recommended push-to-talk key is selected but not verified, the callout shows Run Setup until onboarding proves a native global press and release.
  • Push-to-talk can now use a single held modifier such as Alt. Toggle recording remains press-once and still rejects modifier-only shortcuts.

Fixed

  • Windows: click-to-record now captures the target window before recording, BridgeVoice-owned windows are ignored as insertion targets, and BridgeSpace IPC handoff is used only when BridgeSpace was the saved target.
  • Windows: failed foreground restores leave the transcript on the clipboard for manual paste instead of writing it to the BridgeSpace handoff file, and synthetic paste now requires foreground readback confirmation.
