This document is a standalone, validated procedure for instrumenting Handy and producing a complete, cross-correlated trace of one or more transcription cycles — from process boot, through trigger, through the recording steady state, through VAD finalization and Whisper inference, through paste, back to idle.
It is written without assuming prior context. Every environment variable, flag, and structural decision in this document is one that has been
