We’re building a call-style UI where: - The user can talk freely (like a real phone call) - Silence detection determines when a “turn” ends - Short pauses are merged into one thought - The AI can be interrupted if the user starts talking - Audio playback and mic capture work reliably on iOS Safari Right now we’re running into issues where: - Silence detection doesn’t reliably stop listening - Turns fire too early or too late - Transcription sometimes fails or never triggers - iOS Safari adds extra constraints around audio unlock and playback If you’ve solved this (or seen a solid pattern for frontend VAD + turn management in the browser), I’d love to hear: - What approach worked for you - Any gotchas with MediaRecorder / Web Audio API - Whether you moved logic frontend vs backend Appreciate any war stories or architecture advice 🙏

We audited our AI Coach and found drift into generic advice. We need to bind every response to the Solomon Codex (canonical frameworks, step-locked sequences, “Father Voice”), refuse when a framework isn’t found, and gate flows (e.g., Order of Dominion before wealth). Questions: - How would you hard-bind outputs to a framework registry (exact names/steps) and refuse on missing/invalid frameworks? - Best way to enforce style/tone (“governor” not “assistant”) and block banned phrases—prompting only, or a post-processor/classifier? - Patterns for Perspective Inversion (answer from Ancient Wisdom, not about it) without hallucinations? - How do you track a user’s current framework state across sessions and force correct sequencing? - What eval harness would you use to measure doctrine compliance and catch drift (red-team cases, rubric scoring)? - Any recommended policy/guardrail libraries or schema/grammar approaches you’ve used at scale?
