description	Amical platform help — open-source, local-first AI dictation app with Whisper STT, context-aware formatting, Ollama/OpenRouter LLM, MCP voice commands, and 100+ language support (MIT license). Use when setting up Amical on macOS or Windows for the first time, choosing between Whisper model sizes for accuracy vs speed, configuring Ollama for fully offline text formatting, context-aware formatting not adapting to the active application, microphone not switching or audio input issues, custom vocabulary not recognizing industry terminology, comparing Amical to Wispr Flow or Superwhisper for privacy-first dictation, or setting up voice commands with MCP integrations. Do NOT use for picking between meeting note-takers generally (use /sales-note-taker) or reviewing a single call for coaching (use /sales-call-review).

Amical Platform Help

Step 1 — Gather context

If references/learnings.md exists, read it first for accumulated platform knowledge.

1. What do you need help with?

   • A) Installing Amical or first-time setup (macOS / Windows)
   • B) Whisper model selection (Tiny through Large v3 Turbo)
   • C) LLM configuration for text formatting (Ollama local vs OpenRouter cloud)
   • D) Context-aware formatting not working or wrong tone
   • E) Microphone switching or audio input issues
   • F) Custom vocabulary for industry terminology
   • G) Voice commands and MCP integrations
   • H) Comparing Amical to other dictation tools
   • I) Multi-language dictation or non-English issues

2. Which platform are you on?

   • A) macOS
   • B) Windows
   • C) iOS (beta)
   • D) Android (beta)

Skip-ahead rule: if the user's prompt already contains enough context, skip to Step 2.

Step 2 — Route or answer directly

Problem domain	Route to
Comparing Amical to meeting note-takers	/sales-note-taker {user's question}
Reviewing a specific call for coaching feedback	/sales-call-review {user's question}
Building a coaching program	/sales-coaching {user's question}
General tool integration patterns (Zapier, webhooks, iPaaS)	/sales-integration {user's question}

When routing, provide the exact command.

Step 3 — Amical platform reference

Read references/platform-guide.md for the full platform reference — modules, Whisper models, LLM providers, context-aware formatting, voice commands, MCP integration.

Answer the user's question using only the relevant section. Don't dump the full reference.

Step 4 — Actionable guidance

You no longer need the platform guide — focus on the user's specific situation.

First-time setup priority: Install via brew install --cask amical (macOS) or download installer (Windows) → grant microphone + accessibility permissions → hold fn key and speak → text auto-pastes into active app.
