  • Pass language code (lang param) to ASR endpoint for better transcription quality
  • Include language in getAsrConfig response from extension to webview
  • Add "Transcribe All" button alongside per-cell "Transcribe" to encourage batching
  • Reuse single WhisperTranscriptionClient across batch to leverage warmed Modal container
  • Default batch command to "all untranscribed cells" instead of requiring count
  • Show cold-start warning (~45s) in transcription info messages
  • Save actual language code instead of "unknown" in transcription metadata
