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)

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).
