## Added
- Trim the tail off a clip, or off a whole batch at once. Set the new end point against the clip itself, apply it to every clip that shares the same template, and undo it afterwards if you change your mind. Trimming does not re-encode, so quality is untouched.
- Episode length now fills itself in. Paste a transcript that carries timings and the length is read straight from it, and a new Episode length card on the Recording tab shows the figure with where it came from, or lets you set it by hand when there is nothing to measure.
- Pick the part of an episode to clip. The OpusClip dialogs now have a start and end picker, so a submission can cover a section instead of the whole recording.
- Your Descript transcript comes back with the edit, and costs no credits.

## Changed
- Transcription now shows what it is doing, moving from "Extracting audio" to "Transcribing" instead of sitting on a single spinner.

## Fixed
- A Descript job that fails says so rather than continuing to spin. Progress is shown while it runs, a pull that stops offers a retry, and an import that arrives incomplete is reported as failed rather than treated as finished.
- An episode can be sent to Descript more than once, and where a Descript edit would replace a transcript you pasted by hand, you are asked first.
- Clips created with Managed Clipping use a clean default caption style, rather than branding from an unrelated template.
- Clips now import in full resolution. Anything you had not exported in OpusClip yourself used to arrive as a low-resolution preview.
- Episode length is now learned from a final edit, and transcripts are no longer stored twice when speakers are detected.
- Trimming and undoing a trim now tell you why when something is refused, rather than showing a generic error.
