Product Positioning & Context
We just built SKI — voice coding for Claude Code, Codex and more. It's not dictation: your agent answers you out loud, like a real teammate, so you build at the speed you think. You can even bring it into a meeting to build live, or send it in your place to speak for you. It's an ambient thing that just sits on your desktop — hit a key, talk, it works. All on your machine, free. Available on Mac & Windows.

Community Voice & Feedback
The "it answers back" part is the bit that actually matters. Dictation just moves typing to your mouth, you're still sitting there reading output. Having the agent talk back changes the whole loop.The ambient bit is smart too. Half the reason I don't use voice tools is the ceremony of opening one first.Going to give this a proper run this week. Congrats on shipping.
Really love the concept and I always hated how Claude just took the voice input but not speak back. Now… I’m gonna try it in Claude code.Quick question do we have to run some kind of voice model for this or does it come with pre-packed
Congrats on the launch. Just a quick question, how does the push-to-talk handle noisy environments or mechanical keyboard chatter during active coding?
This is definitely a valuable addition to the coding community. I currently use whisper flow for coding but I am wondering how this differs and maybe how it will be better given that it's tailored toward programmers.
Super cool! How does it compare to using WisprFlow on say Claude Code or OpenRouter
I run Claude Code all day as a solo dev and the thing that actually breaks my flow is drifting to another tab and not noticing when it's done or sitting blocked on an approval. Voice-out closing that loop is the part I actually want — does it speak up when the agent is waiting on me, or only when a task finishes?
Congrats on the launch. Assuming this can work with local models since you said it works with Hermes?
This is great! I tried Mac dictation and built in Claude dictation but neither allows for full "away from screen" experience.
Is it possible to call the agent? So that I could talk to it remotely? I guess it's the "bring it to the meeting" that was mentioned?

the answer-out-loud part is the interesting bit, most voice tools stop at input. if I start talking again while it's mid-response, does it interrupt itself or do I have to wait it out?
Very promising approach - two things which made me uninstall it after a few minutes: a) I need a way to select input and output. I have multiple mics (Jabra wireless headset for meetings, Rode mic for video recordings, some system loops etc) and also multiple outputs. (When it gets late I want that output on my headset to not annoy my family)b) price intransparency. I understand that you need to make money. We all do. But if you tell me "free for lifetime" then I am annoyed if I see $2.50 somewhere in the fineprint of my account status. Be open about your pricing. You are competing against other tools that I pay for and I am happy to pay for a better tool
Yes, I want this! Giving it a try. Heads up: Clicking the download buttons on your site did not work for me (but copying the link manually did)
claude code, and the thing that would keep it open is voice for describing intent but never for reading the diff back. those are different jobs and only one of them wants a mic
Love the idea! Voice-first coding feels much more natural than traditional dictation. Running everything locally is a huge plus for both privacy and performance. Excited to see how SKI evolves—congratulations on the launch! 👏
Does it have built-in intelligence or uses our agent's intelligence such as of Claude Code ?
Does it have built-in Intelligence or use our Agent's Intelligence such as of Claude code , Codex...?
