README

Chippy

Talk to Claude Code out loud, and hear its answers read back to you.

Getting started

**You need:** Claude Code (`claude --version` prints its version). Chippy needs no API key and no account.
**Install:** paste this into a terminal. It asks once before it installs.
```
curl -fsSL https://chippy.fly.dev | sh
```
**First run:** in a Claude Code chat that was already open, type `/reload-plugins` once, then `/chippy`.
**Uninstall:** `curl -fsSL https://chippy.fly.dev/uninstall | sh`

**macOS:** Apple silicon, macOS 13 or later. The first time you turn Chippy on, macOS asks to let your terminal app use the microphone; click Allow. If you clicked Don't Allow, turn your terminal app on in System Settings > Privacy & Security > Microphone.

**Ubuntu:** 24.04 or later with its standard desktop. Ubuntu doesn't ask about the microphone: Chippy listens on the input chosen in Settings > Sound.

Use

Privacy

Chippy keeps your settings and logs on your computer, and sends what your mic hears and the replies it reads aloud to xAI for speech. [PRIVACY.md](PRIVACY.md) has the details.
