Can you dictate GitHub issues and pull request reviews?
Direct answer: Yes. Focus the GitHub issue, pull request, or review comment field, hold the Hold to Talk shortcut, speak the full note, release, then review the pasted text before submitting.
What happens after install
See the demo- Focus any Mac text field.Cursor, ChatGPT, Slack, email, docs, terminals, browser forms, and more.
- Hold the shortcut and speak.Use Fn/Globe or a custom hotkey only while you are talking.
- Release to paste.The transcript appears in the active app instead of a separate dictation workspace.
- Review before sending.Hold to Talk never auto-submits prompts, messages, emails, or commands.
