What changed.

Versioned release notes. Murmur is in beta — expect frequent shipping.

v0.5 — initial public beta

Added

• Menu-bar app with dual-mode hotkey (Right ⌘): hold to transcribe locally, double-tap to polish with Claude.
• First-launch setup wizard with live-polled permission cards.
• On-device Whisper transcription via Apple's MLX framework — audio never leaves your Mac.
• Optional screen context for polish mode: a single screenshot is sent to Anthropic with each request and discarded.

Known limits

• macOS 12+ on Apple Silicon. Intel Macs are not supported — transcription uses MLX, which requires Apple's Neural Engine.
• Pasting fails in apps that block synthetic keystrokes (e.g. some 1Password fields).
