The short answer: open your Replit project, click into any file or the AI chat, press ⌃+⌥+R (Mac) or Ctrl+Alt+R (Windows/Linux), speak your code requirements or comments for 30-60 seconds, and AICHE inserts formatted text.

Typing code explanations in Replit's collaborative environment interrupts pair programming flow. You're discussing architecture with your pair, but the keyboard breaks the conversation every time you need to document decisions.

  1. Open Replit in your browser.
  2. Navigate to your project and open a file, README, or the AI chat panel.
  3. Click where you want to add content.
  4. Press your AICHE hotkey to start recording.
  5. Speak your content naturally (example: "Create a Python Flask API with three endpoints. First endpoint: GET slash users to list all users with pagination support using query parameters for page and limit. Second endpoint: POST slash users to create a new user with email validation using regex and password hashing with bcrypt. Third endpoint: GET slash users colon id to fetch a single user by their database ID with proper 404 handling if not found. Include SQLAlchemy models for the User table, proper error handling with JSON error responses, and basic API documentation in the README explaining authentication requirements").
  6. Press the hotkey again-AICHE transcribes, applies Message Ready formatting, and inserts the text.

Heads-up: for Replit's AI chat, speak your architectural questions clearly with full context. Instead of "how do I add auth," say "explain how to add JWT-based authentication to this Flask API with refresh tokens and secure cookie storage." More context means better AI responses.

The pro-tip: enable "Translate to English" in AICHE settings if you're learning to code in a language other than English. Many programming students think in their native language but need English documentation. Replit's global classroom benefits from multilingual voice input.

Result: API documentation that took 10 minutes to type with endpoint descriptions and error handling now takes 90 seconds to speak, and your pair programming sessions maintain conversation flow because you're not constantly stopping to type.

Do this now: open a Replit project, press your hotkey, and dictate complete documentation for one function or API endpoint including parameters, return values, and error cases.
