VoiceMode
An MCP server and Claude Code plugin that enables natural voice conversations with Claude Code and other MCP-capable AI agents, supporting both cloud (OpenAI) and fully local (Whisper + Kokoro) speech processing with smart silence detection.
Best When
You want to talk to Claude Code naturally during development without touching the keyboard, with the option to keep everything fully local for privacy.
Avoid When
You need low-latency, high-accuracy voice for production use cases — dedicated voice platforms like Deepgram or AssemblyAI are better suited.
Use Cases
- • Hands-free AI coding assistance while walking, cooking, or away from keyboard
- • Voice-driven development sessions during extended screen-time breaks
- • Privacy-first local voice interaction using on-device Whisper and Kokoro models
- • Accessible AI interface for users who prefer or require speech input
Not For
- • Production voice applications or customer-facing voice bots
- • High-volume or multi-user voice processing
- • Voice interaction with non-MCP AI systems
