GitHub Copilot CLI adds voice, Rubber Duck
GitHub has released new generally available features for the GitHub Copilot CLI, enabling developers to speak to Copilot using on-device speech-to-text models. The update also includes a built-in Rubber Duck agent that helps identify blind spots using a second AI model.
Voice control and multi-model collaboration are moving into standard CLI environments, showing that AI assistants are expanding beyond simple text autocomplete.
- –On-device speech-to-text provides low-latency, privacy-focused voice interactions directly in the terminal.
- –The use of a second model for the Rubber Duck agent provides a valuable cross-examination mechanism to uncover code blind spots.
- –Embedding these features directly into the CLI is another step toward terminal-based AI agents acting as co-pilots in developer workflows.
