Vox: A voice-based extension for GitHub Copilot that lets developers talk to the AI assistant
By
Ashish Kumar
Summary
Vox is a GitHub Copilot CLI extension that allows developers to interact with Copilot using voice commands instead of typing. It opens a reactive listening orb in its own window, enabling voice-in/voice-out interaction with live captions, transcripts, and the ability to interrupt and correct the AI by voice. Built with pure JavaScript using browser Web Speech APIs, it works on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

· 3 pulledI use GitHub Copilot constantly and got tired of being pinned to the keyboard, so I built a way to just talk to it.
Run /vox and a reactive orb opens in its own window — you speak your turn, the session hears it, and the reply is read back.
You can barge in by voice to interrupt and correct it, there are live captions and a transcript, and it even reads your typed replies aloud.
