+# stop: SIGTERM any running assistant.py (whisper-server and amixer die
+# with it through PDEATHSIG), SIGKILL after 10 s; same for the quickshell
+# overlay (OVERLAY, default the quickshell repo next to this one).
+# start: run both in their own session, detached from the terminal,
+# logging where the Hyprland autostart does; does nothing for one already
+# running. restart: stop, then start. status: processes, children, stray
+# recorders, socket, pause flags and the log's tail; exit 1 if either is
+# down. Run it from the login session: it needs its
+# audio, bus, Wayland display and XDG_RUNTIME_DIR.
