Bootstrap of the project (M0). Sets up the monorepo, design docs, hardware BOM, the open API contract, component skeletons, licensing and CI, following the Default Workflow SOP. What changed: - CLAUDE.md + docs/: copied the Default Workflow so sessions load the SOP. - state/: PROJECT, ARCHITECTURE, DECISIONS, TODO, NOTES filled in for OpenScribe. ARCHITECTURE captures the four-part design (firmware, server, app, case) and the three sync paths; DECISIONS records the hardware, AI-stack, storage, app and licensing choices; TODO lays out milestones M1-M9. - hardware/BOM.md: two build options (compact XIAO ESP32-S3 Sense; dev ESP32-S3 + I2S mic + SD), wiring/pinout, indicative cost. - api/openapi.yaml: the completely open API (device + server surfaces), including recording list/download/delete and exports (wav/ogg/txt/srt/vtt/md/json). - firmware/: PlatformIO ESP32-S3 project, two board profiles, pin map, boot scaffold with module seams for M1-M4. - server/: FastAPI skeleton mirroring the OpenAPI, config for self-hosted MinIO, faster-whisper and Ollama; stub routes browsable at /docs. - app/, case/: Flutter app plan; parametric OpenSCAD enclosure. - Licensing: GPL-3.0 (code), CERN-OHL-S-2.0 (hardware), CC-BY-SA-4.0 (case/docs), REUSE-style LICENSES/ with SPDX headers; LICENSING.md explains the split. - CI: Forgejo Actions workflow builds firmware (both profiles) and lints/imports server. Why: - Everything self-hosted and openly licensed per the user's requirements: an open API, three sync paths (BLE control, WiFi transfer, independent WiFi upload on charge to generic cloud storage), and a full self-hosted transcription+summary stack. Notes: - No custom PCB in v1; off-the-shelf modules. Physical verification waits on parts. - Component code is stubs at M0; features land milestone by milestone, each as its own branch/PR per the workflow.

Licensing
OpenScribe is multi-part, so it uses a licence appropriate to each part. All licence
texts are in LICENSES/. The top-level LICENSE is a copy of
GPL-3.0 so the forge detects the primary code licence.
| Part | Paths | Licence |
|---|---|---|
| Firmware, server, app (all source code) | firmware/, server/, app/ |
GPL-3.0-only |
| Hardware design (BOM, wiring, any future PCB) | hardware/ |
CERN-OHL-S-2.0 |
| 3D case models and documentation | case/, docs/, state/, *.md |
CC-BY-SA-4.0 |
Rationale: strong copyleft keeps derivatives open, which is the point of the project.
CERN-OHL-S and CC-BY-SA are the standard reciprocal licences for open hardware and for
creative/documentation content respectively. See state/DECISIONS.md for the full record.
LICENSES/Apache-2.0.txt is included for a possible future permissive client SDK; it is
not applied to anything yet.
Where practical, files carry an SPDX-License-Identifier: header so the licensing is
machine-checkable (REUSE style). The OpenAPI spec api/openapi.yaml is CC-BY-SA-4.0 as
documentation of the interface.
The name "Plaud" and any Plaud trademarks belong to their owner. OpenScribe is an independent, clean-room, open-source project inspired by that class of device. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or derived from Plaud.
