+   - Pass `enableVoiceInput={true}` to the `<ChatInput>` component. This makes the voice button visible to users. (If a `localAIEnabled` flag or config exists, gate on that instead; otherwise pass `true` unconditionally — the server returns 503 gracefully if whisper is not installed.)

+3. Update .planning/REQUIREMENTS.md:
    - Change INPUT-04 from `- [ ] **INPUT-04**` to `- [x] **INPUT-04**`
    - In Traceability table, change INPUT-04 from Pending to Complete
    - Also change INPUT-02 and INPUT-03 from Pending to Complete if not already (they were implemented in Plan 25-02)
