1.2.0
April 20, 2026A release focused on making VivaDicta scriptable and agent-driven. A new command-line tool, an expanded MCP server, and an official agent skill pack.
Command-line tool
- New
vivadictaCLI installable viabrew install n0an/tap/vivadicta - Browse history, search with filters, export to Obsidian, rewrite with any preset, transcribe files or YouTube URLs - all from your terminal
- TTY-aware output: readable tables in your shell, JSON when piped into
jq, a script, or a Raycast action - Shell completions for zsh, bash, and fish via
vivadicta --generate-completion-script
MCP server
- VivaDicta now exposes 12 tools to AI assistants (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex CLI, Zed, VS Code, and any other stdio MCP client)
- Reads: search and fetch transcriptions with natural-language timeframes; list presets, tags, Viva Modes, vocabulary, word replacements
- Writes: rewrite with any preset; transcribe local audio files or YouTube URLs with live progress polling; poll async job status
- Install via
brew install n0an/tap/vivadicta-mcp
Agent skill pack
- Official skill pack so AI assistants know when and how to call
vivadictafor you - Install with
npx skills add n0an/vivadicta-cli-skills --global - Covers transcribe, search-and-rewrite, and vault-export flows end-to-end
Clipboard setting fix
- The toggle in Settings → Clipboard was labeled "Copy to Clipboard" but, when on, actually disabled clipboard restoration
- Renamed to "Restore Clipboard After Paste" so the label, behavior, and the nested "Restore Delay" picker all agree
- Existing preference is migrated automatically
Provider polish
- VivAgents server surfaces a clear error in the UI when the port is already in use, and exposes the port it's actually listening on
- Custom OpenAI-compatible providers auto-append
/chat/completionswhen only the base URL is pasted - Cerebras default model updated to
llama3.1-8b - MLX generation parameters tuned to reduce repetition in outputs
