Olaf The Vibecoder — a voice-controlled coding assistant using OpenAI Realtime API + Claude Code

Project description

Olaf The Vibecoder

A voice-controlled coding assistant that combines OpenAI's Realtime API for voice conversation with Claude Code for autonomous coding tasks.

Quick Start

# Install and run
uv tool install voice-vibecoder
vibecoder

On first launch, a setup wizard will guide you through connecting your OpenAI or Azure OpenAI account. Press s anytime to change settings.

Features

  • Voice conversation via OpenAI Realtime API (supports OpenAI and Azure)
  • Multi-instance Claude Code agents running in separate git worktrees
  • Git diff visualization with file tree and colorized hunks
  • Session persistence across restarts
  • Push-to-talk and voice activity detection modes
  • Multi-language support (English, Norwegian, Swedish)

Requirements

  • Python 3.10+
  • An OpenAI API key with Realtime API access
  • PortAudio for microphone input (brew install portaudio on macOS)
  • Claude Code CLI installed

Usage as a Library

Embed the voice coding screen in your own Textual app:

from pathlib import Path
from voice_vibecoder import VoiceCodingApp, VoiceCodingScreen, VoiceConfig

# Standalone app with custom config
config = VoiceConfig(
    app_name="My Coding Assistant",
    config_dir=Path.home() / ".my-app",
    data_dir=Path.home() / ".my-app",
    log_dir=Path.home() / ".my-app" / "logs",
    on_startup=lambda send: send("Hello from startup!"),
)
VoiceCodingApp(config=config).run()

# Or embed the screen in your own Textual app
screen = VoiceCodingScreen(repo_root, config=config)

Configuration

Settings are stored using platform-standard directories:

Platform Config Data Logs
macOS ~/Library/Application Support/voice-vibecoder/ ~/Library/Application Support/voice-vibecoder/ ~/Library/Logs/voice-vibecoder/
Linux ~/.config/voice-vibecoder/ ~/.local/share/voice-vibecoder/ ~/.local/state/voice-vibecoder/log/

Git worktrees are created as siblings of your project directory (e.g., ../my-project-feat-login).
