Trial checklist for an AI prompting foot switch

Question: trial checklist for an AI prompting foot switch?

Practical notes

A pedal changes how a shortcut is triggered; it does not change the speech-recognition service.

The useful outcome is reduced interruption in a repeated workflow.

A short trial should measure errors, unwanted triggers, and avoided keyboard reaches.

The device is a poor fit when setup and recovery cost exceed the interruption it removes.
