 # Multi-user Hermes migration — qualification and operations
 
+## Dedicated web voice session refinement — 2026-10-04 (local only; not deployed)
+
+Local browser qualification exercised the actual web app's voice start, mute,
+unmute, transcript-packet handling and end lifecycle with fake LiveKit at
+1440×900, 390×844, 320×568 and 844×390. No JavaScript errors or viewport overflow
+were observed. The transcript owns its scroll region, session controls remain
+persistent, the text composer is hidden during voice, and its draft is restored
+when the session ends. Independent actual-app fake-transport screenshots passed
+in light and dark themes at all four viewports after the final changes; the LED
+overflow issue was fixed.
+
+Parent-reported static checks passed again after the final changes:
+`node --check web/app.js`, `node --check web/chat.js`, `git diff --check`, and
+theme generator `--check`. The final seven-module offline browser suite passed:
+**47 passed in 97.40s** (parent receipt `bash-1727`). Coverage includes cancellation
+while connecting, token failure, microphone denial, disconnect, logout, scroll
+position, selected durable-history isolation, and the HTTP-only compatibility
+composer. Fake transport and simulated microphone failures are browser lifecycle
+evidence, not physical audio qualification.
+
+No credentials, live APIs or NAS were accessed for this refinement. No production
+deployment, physical microphone, real TTS or native qualification is claimed.
+Existing dirty iOS, AGENTS and design changes were left untouched. No commit or
+push was performed.
+
 ## Web UX refinement — 2026-10-04 (production deployed)
