christianandClaude Opus 5 acfca90836 The English switch did nothing, so English could not be turned off
Build 125. Reported from the desk: every language on the listener page can be
switched off except English.

Exactly right, and it was not subtle. renderFeatured() unshifted the SOURCE
language into the list on every render, whatever the operator had chosen:

    if (list.indexOf(app.cfg.sourceLanguage) === -1)
      list.unshift(app.cfg.sourceLanguage);

So English was not merely on, it was always FIRST — the leading button on the
page — on a desk whose saved list was ["spa_Latn","por_Latn","por_PT","spa_ES"]
with English deliberately off and allowAll false. The operator had turned it
off, the config recorded that it was off, and the page put it back anyway.

The reasoning behind it was sound: people do want the English captions for
accessibility rather than translation. But that is a choice for the desk, not
for this function, and the switch to make it is already there in Settings next
to every other language. English is in the catalogue (languages.js:19) and the
operator window reads that same file, so turning it back on is one click.

A control that silently refuses is worse than no control. The operator's list
is now the list.

christianandClaude Opus 5 7291ff48f7 Save QR image stranded the window on a picture of itself
Build 124. Reported from the booth: the button did not download anything and
there was no way back off the QR.

Both halves are the same fault. The window is served from the asset port and
the code comes off the congregation port, so the link the button built was
CROSS-ORIGIN — and a cross-origin <a download> has its download attribute
ignored and NAVIGATES instead. So the file never saved, and the window went to
the image. The app has no back button, no reload item and no address bar, so
that is a one-way trip: a headless booth Mac showing a full-screen QR with the
operator locked out of the desk. It fetches the code and downloads a blob now,
which is same-origin and actually saves.

The second change is the one that matters more. Nothing was stopping the app
window being replaced by any navigation at all, and the only reason this had
never bitten before is that nothing had tried. will-navigate now refuses to
replace the app page, logs what it refused, and sends anything external to the
browser. Our own pages are unaffected — the operator console and the poster
open as their own windows through setWindowOpenHandler, which is a different
path entirely.

Found because the build number went to the wrong field: buildNumber is the
source of truth and build.buildVersion is synced from it by predist, which
caught it and rebuilt correctly.

christianandClaude Opus 5 c9eef0672c Church Translate, as it runs at the campuses
Live sermon translation into 100+ languages, running entirely on one Mac per
campus: audio in, voice detection, Whisper on the GPU, NLLB-200 in its own
process, and a built-in web server the congregation reads from on their
phones. No audio leaves the building.

This is the source only. What used to sit beside it — 14 GB of speech and
translation models, 8 GB of voice bundles, 6 GB of natural voices, the Electron
caches, and the app data holding the operator PIN and every service transcript
— is machine state and downloaded assets, and stays in the NAS backup where it
belongs. The vendored node, cloudflared and Windows ffmpeg binaries are out too
(533 MB, re-fetched for packaging); the browser-side runtime beside them is
kept, so a checkout still serves the congregation page.
