01
Install from the Marketplace
Open the VS Code Extensions view and install VoicePrompt Dev.
VoicePrompt Dev
Speak prompts. Drive agents.
Voice input for AI coding, terminal, and chat workflows inside VS Code. Say the next instruction out loud and route it straight into the work.
Windows, Linux, and macOS. Built for Codex, Copilot, terminal, and chat loops.
Less typing
Keep momentum when your next instruction is faster to say than type.
Faster loops
Move from idea to execution without bouncing between tools and input boxes.
Built for agents
Route into Codex, Copilot, terminal, and approval flows where the work already happens.
“I don't write, I talk.”
Peter Steinberger, creator of OpenClaw.
Quick Start
Minimal setup, fast path to first use
The install flow should feel closer to adding a serious tool to VS Code than onboarding into a separate app universe.
02
Open the VoicePrompt panel
Choose the transcription backend and routing target that matches your workflow.
03
Speak and route
Hold Space or tap R, then send the transcript into chat, terminal, or editor workflows.
Works With
Built around the surfaces where developer voice input actually matters
This is not a generic voice assistant wrapper. It is shaped around the tools and loops already sitting inside a developer workflow.

How It Works
Capture speech fast, route it cleanly, keep the loop moving
The product only needs three things to feel good in practice: fast capture, useful destinations, and low-friction follow-through after transcription.
Capture
Speak inside VS Code
Start fast with tap-to-record or hold-to-talk and keep audio local when a native recorder is available.
- Tap R or hold Space to record
- Retry quickly when a take is wrong
- Use native capture where the machine supports it
Route
Send the transcript where work happens
VoicePrompt Dev is built around the actual destinations developers use during agent work instead of forcing extra copy and paste steps.
- Route into Copilot or Codex chat
- Send directly to the active terminal or Codex CLI
- Paste into the active editor when that is the right target
Control
Keep the next action fast
Review when you want control, or keep things moving with draft management, auto-submit, and approval shortcuts.
- Append, replace, or clear the current draft
- Choose paste-only or optional auto-submit
- Use Y, N, 1, 2, 3, Enter, and T from the panel
Trust and Limits
Clear enough to install, honest enough to trust
Local capture first
VoicePrompt Dev records locally when a native recorder is available and only falls back when the machine needs it.
Backend choice stays yours
Use the OpenAI transcription path or point the extension at your own command-based backend.
Clear scope
This release is focused on VS Code chat and terminal workflows, with practical guardrails instead of fake perfection.
Feedback and Updates
Keep the loop tight between users and product updates
Bugs, feature requests, and shipped improvements should all have one obvious path. The site points people to the right place, while the actual loop runs through GitHub, release notes, and support email.
Bug Reports
Report an issue
Send bugs and rough edges straight into the GitHub issue tracker.
Feature Requests
Ask for something new
Request workflow improvements, new targets, or better routing behavior.
Updates
Follow releases
Track what shipped, what changed, and whether the product is moving fast.
