Build me a push-to-talk dictation tool for macOS to replace Superscribe's desktop app.
Requirements:

- Swift menu bar app, SPM only, no Xcode project. A global hotkey (default: hold
  Option+Space) records while held, stops on release.
- Capture the mic with AVAudioEngine, downsample to 16kHz mono PCM, and stream it
  over WebSocket to ElevenLabs Scribe realtime (key in .env). Show partial
  transcripts in a small floating panel while I speak.
- On release, run one LLM cleanup pass over the final transcript (fix punctuation,
  drop filler words; key in the same .env), then paste it into the focused app via
  NSPasteboard + CGEvent Cmd-V and restore my previous clipboard afterwards.
- Fallback: with no ElevenLabs key, record to a temp wav and transcribe locally
  with whisper.cpp instead. Slower is fine.
- Menu bar icon shows idle/recording/transcribing states; a history window lists
  the last 20 transcripts with copy buttons, persisted to ~/Dictation/history.jsonl.
- Ad-hoc codesign for my own machine only. README documents the Microphone and
  Accessibility permission prompts and the whisper.cpp model download.
- Out of scope: live word-by-word typing into the field (paste on release only),
  Windows support, accounts and billing, and the phone-call capture product. If I
  want call notes I will upload recordings by hand.
