# Winston

> **Self-voicing IDE and productivity environment for blind developers**

Winston is a Python-based framework that provides an accessible, keyboard-driven development environment with integrated speech synthesis, code intelligence, and productivity tools designed specifically for blind users on Windows.

[![Python Version](https://img.shields.io/badge/python-3.10+-blue.svg)](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
[![Platform](https://img.shields.io/badge/platform-Windows-blue.svg)](https://www.microsoft.com/windows)

## 🚀 Quick Start

### Prerequisites

- **Windows 10/11** (Winston uses Windows COM APIs)
- **Python 3.10+** (modern type hints required)
- **Screen reader** (JAWS or NVDA recommended)

### Installation

#### Option 1: Install from Source (Recommended for Development)

```bash
# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/chris14257/winston.git
cd winston

# Install in editable mode with all dependencies
pip install -e .

# Run Winston
winston
```

#### Option 2: Quick Development Setup

```bash
# Clone and navigate to repository
git clone https://github.com/chris14257/winston.git
cd winston

# Install dependencies manually
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Run directly from source
python -m winston.churchill
```

**First run:**
- Winston beeps (350Hz, 200ms) on startup
- Root dialog opens with list of available applets
- Navigate with arrow keys, press Control+Return to open

### Basic Usage

**Launch Winston:**
```bash
# If installed via pip
winston

# Or run as module
python -m winston.churchill
```

**Essential Hotkeys:**
- **Control+Alt+E** - Open file explorer
- **Control+Alt+C** - Open Claude Code integration
- **Control+F5** - Reload current module (in pycoder)
- **Control+W** - Close current applet
- **Control+Q** - Quit Winston

See [Getting Started Guide](winston/docs/GETTING_STARTED.md) for detailed instructions.

## 📚 Documentation

- **[Getting Started](winston/docs/GETTING_STARTED.md)** - Installation, configuration, basic usage
- **[Winston Implementation Guide](winston/docs/WINSTON_IMPLEMENTATION.md)** - Type hints, architecture, development workflows
- **[Development Workflow](winston/claude.md)** - Commit practices, testing protocols, WIP features
- **[Pip Installation Plan](winston/docs/PIP_INSTALLATION_PLAN.md)** - Roadmap for pip installability

## 🎯 Core Applets

| Applet | Hotkey | Description |
|--------|--------|-------------|
| **Explorer** | Control+Alt+E | File system navigation and management |
| **Editor** | (auto) | Multi-line text editing with speech |
| **Pycoder** | (auto) | Python IDE with code intelligence |
| **Clauder** | Control+Alt+C | Claude Code AI integration |
| **Diary** | Control+Alt+D | Google Calendar management |
| **Console** | Control+Alt+X | Shell command execution |
| **Debugger** | (context) | Python debugger with speech |

Full list in [GETTING_STARTED.md](winston/docs/GETTING_STARTED.md#essential-applets).

## 🔧 Development Workflow

Winston enables **rapid iterative development** without restarting:

```python
# 1. Edit code in pycoder
@KeyHandler.hotkey("Control+Shift+T")
def command_my_feature(self, modified_name: str) -> None:
    """My new feature."""
    self.say_strings("Feature works!")

# 2. Press Control+F5 to reload
# Winston says "reloaded"

# 3. Test immediately - changes are live!
# Press Control+Shift+T
# Hear: "Feature works!"
```

**What can be reloaded:**
- ✅ All applets (`winston/applets/*.py`)
- ✅ Most utility modules
- ❌ Core framework (requires restart)

See [Control+F5 Workflow](winston/docs/WINSTON_IMPLEMENTATION.md#applet-development-workflow-with-controlf5) for details.

## 🏗️ Architecture

Winston is built on a modular architecture:

```
winston/
├── framework.py         # Core: Anchor, Carousel, COMThread
├── dialog.py            # Base Dialog class with KeyHandler
├── subdialogs.py        # FormDialog, TableDialog, Applet
├── elements.py          # UI element types
├── churchill.py         # Application launcher (entry point)
├── clem.py              # Main event loop (pythoncom)
├── debugging.py         # Debugger, inspector, logger
├── google_api.py        # Google OAuth and API utilities
└── applets/             # Modular functionality
    ├── clauder.py       # Claude Code integration
    ├── explorer.py      # File explorer
    ├── pycoder.py       # Python IDE
    ├── diary.py         # Google Calendar
    └── ...
```

**Key Patterns:**
- **pythoncom main loop** - Windows message pump for COM integration
- **asyncio on threads** - Async I/O without blocking main loop
- **Duck typing validation** - `element_attributes()` instead of ABCs
- **Protocol classes** - Type hints for structural typing
- **Live reload** - Module cache invalidation for hot reloading

See [Architecture Notes](winston/docs/WINSTON_IMPLEMENTATION.md#winston-architecture-notes) for in-depth coverage.

## 🤝 Contributing

### Development Setup

```bash
# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/chris14257/winston.git
cd winston

# Install in editable mode with development dependencies
pip install -e ".[dev]"

# Run type checker
python -m mypy winston --config-file=winston/mypy.ini

# Make changes and test with Control+F5

2. **Keyboard-Driven** - All functionality accessible via hotkeys
3. **Speech Integrated** - Continuous spoken feedback
4. **Rapid Iteration** - Live reload for fast development cycles
5. **Type Safety** - Comprehensive type hints with mypy validation
6. **Self-Documenting** - Google-style docstrings throughout
7. **Modular** - Applet architecture for extensibility

## 🔮 Future Plans

### Short Term
- [ ] **Pip installability** - `pip install winston-ide` (see [plan](winston/docs/PIP_INSTALLATION_PLAN.md))
- [ ] **Cross-platform test framework** - Test without Windows dependencies
- [ ] **Runtime type checking** - Enable typeguard in development mode
- [ ] **More applets** - Email (mail.py), Jupyter (notebook.py)

### Long Term
- [ ] **Cross-platform support** - macOS and Linux versions
- [ ] **Plugin system** - Third-party applet distribution
- [ ] **Speech synthesis abstraction** - Support multiple TTS engines
- [ ] **Remote debugging** - Debug code on remote systems

See [WIP sections in claude.md](winston/claude.md) for active work.

## 📊 Project Status

**Current Version:** 0.1.0 (Alpha)

**Maturity:**
- ✅ Core framework stable
- ✅ Major applets working (explorer, pycoder, clauder, diary)
- ✅ Type hints complete across codebase
- ⚠️ Some applets incomplete (mail, notebook, souper)
- ⚠️ Windows-only (platform-specific dependencies)
- ⚠️ Not yet pip-installable (manual setup required)

**Type Checking:**
- Total modules: 24 (all typed)
- mypy errors: 257 (down from 546 baseline, 52.9% reduction)
- Most errors are from untyped dependencies or legitimate duck typing

See [mypy progress in claude.md](winston/claude.md) for details.
