Conversation Mode Is Becoming a Live Local Agent
Conversation mode is no longer just a spoken prompt and a spoken answer. It is becoming the live agent loop for DictatorFlow: voice input, chat reasoning, optional local tools, optional coding agents, and spoken output.
The loop
A useful voice agent needs more than transcription. It needs to remember the conversation, call tools when the task requires action, and answer in a way that fits a live desktop workflow. DictatorFlow now has the pieces for that loop.
- > Desktop hotkeys for dictation, commands, research, history, snippets, and conversation.
- > Live web chat backed by Gemini function calls.
- > Optional workspace tools for local computer use.
- > Local TTS hooks for spoken replies.
Why voice matters here
Voice is best when the cost of switching contexts is high. You can stay in the editor, browser, terminal, or document you were already using, then ask DictatorFlow to inspect something, draft something, or delegate an implementation.
The destination is a desktop assistant that works through normal language but respects local boundaries: explicit roots, opt-in tools, visible traces, and a chat history you can inspect after the work is done.
