One-line summary
Review and improve in-app + docs copy for screen/audio capture permissions so users know what is captured and that it stays local.
Problem / motivation
Roadmap item. Device/window capture can trigger OS prompts. Vague status strings (starting, error) and thin privacy wording increase distrust for a tool that listens to system audio next to agents.
Proposed solution
- Voice panel: short explainer under Device output / Pick window.
- Error states: actionable text (permission denied → Settings deep-link hints on Windows).
- Docs: Audio sources + Privacy blurb in README already — expand “what never leaves the machine.”
- Optional one-time first-run note when enabling capture.
Alternatives considered
- Leave as-is — ships, but weak for security-minded users.
