AICHE +WWarp Integration
Voice input for AI terminal
Speak your commands into Warp. Modern shell meets voice input.
The short answer: open Warp terminal, click into the command input or a notebook cell, press ⌃+⌥+R (Mac) or Ctrl+Alt+R (Windows/Linux), speak your shell command or script for 30-60 seconds, and AICHE inserts formatted text.
Warp's AI command search and workflows are keyboard-driven, but complex shell commands take 5+ minutes to type with proper flags and pipes. Speaking technical commands is faster than typing them.
- Open Warp terminal.
- Click into the command input at the bottom or create a new notebook cell.
- Press your AICHE hotkey to start recording.
- Speak your complete command with all flags and pipes (example: "Find all TypeScript files modified in the last 7 days, exclude node modules and dist directories, search for the word deprecated, show results with line numbers and file paths, sort by modification date, and export to a CSV file with columns for filename, line number, and matched text. Use find for file discovery, grep for pattern matching, and awk for formatting output").
- Press the hotkey again-AICHE transcribes, applies Message Ready formatting, and inserts the text.
- Review the command and press Enter to execute, or use Warp's AI to refine it further.
Heads-up: AICHE transcribes technical terms like "grep" and "awk" correctly, but you'll need to add actual shell syntax (pipes, redirects, flags) manually. The verbose requirement is captured; you translate it to shell syntax.
The pro-tip: use Warp's command palette (Cmd+P) after voice dictation to search for similar commands Warp has seen before. Your spoken intent combined with Warp's AI suggestions speeds up complex command construction.
Result: multi-step shell pipelines with filters and formatting that took 8 minutes to type now take 90 seconds to speak as requirements, and Warp's AI helps translate your intent into correct syntax.
Do this now: open Warp, press your hotkey, and dictate one complex data processing task you need as a shell command. Let Warp's AI help convert your spoken requirements into working shell syntax.
