Your AI agents are missing context. You tell them what to do, but not why it matters or how you actually think through your problems.

That context lives in the words you choose, your pauses, your half-formed thoughts. This is the reasoning layer that never makes it into writing but comes out every time you talk.

Superwhisper captures it, but your agents just never had access, until now.

Today we’re releasing the official Superwhisper CLI and MCP: command-line tools that put your transcriptions inside your AI workflows — Claude, Codex, Pi, or whatever harness you use.

Getting started

With Superwhisper installed, open your terminal and run:

curl -fsSL https://superwhisper.com/install-cli.sh | bash

Then run superwhisper --help

search — full-text search across every dictation.
export — pull full transcripts in json or markdown.
stats — total recordings, words, time spent, and your average wpm.
vocab — manage your vocabulary items and text replacements.
snippets — manage your list of snippets and expansions.
mcp — starts the local MCP server.

All responses are written to stdout to easily chain with other commands.

Using the CLI and MCP

With the CLI installed, you can start interacting with your Superwhisper history right away. The agent reads your task, and can get to automatically enhancing your vocabulary, drafting a new skill from recent tasks, or capturing action items from your last meeting.

Remember that agents can also interact on the CLI directly, if you prefer over launching the MCP.

Our favourite workflows

Enhance your system prompt with your tone.

Have your agent study your transcripts to learn how you phrase things, then have it write replies or docs that sound like you wrote them.

Search my Superwhisper transcripts for the last 30 recordings where I talked through a decision or explained something to someone. Study how I phrase things, sentence length, how I open, the words I use, how blunt I am. Show me a list of patterns, and I'll approve which ones to add to Claude/Agents.md

Mine your past notes.

Point an agent at your meeting history and ask it questions across everything you've recorded.

Search my Superwhisper history for anything I said about our customers. Pull the full text of the relevant recordings, then answer: what decisions were made, who do I talk about most.

Catch what slips.

Have an agent read back through the week for anything you said you'd do, or brief you before a 1:1 on everything you've said about that person or project, so you walk in prepped instead of scrambling.

Read through my Superwhisper recordings from the last 7 days. Extract every commitment I made out loud — anything phrased as "I'll," "I need to," "let me," "I should." List them with the date and recording ID, and flag the time-sensitive ones.

And two that run themselves.

A daily script that pulls from recent recordings to assemble your standup, and an agent that keeps your vocab and replacements current as it watches how you talk, so accuracy climbs without manual upkeep.

/loop 24h Scan my recent Superwhisper transcripts for proper nouns, product names, and technical terms that got mis-transcribed — anything garbled or spelled inconsistently. Cross-check my current vocab list. Propose additions and replacement rules, show me the diff, and apply them only after I approve.

Keeping it local

Remember: your Superwhisper transcription history is stored on your device, so the CLI tools are working against your local machine data. To keep things private we recommend using a locally running LLM on Ollama or MLX.

If you’d prefer to use the SOTA models from Google, OpenAI, or Anthropic, ensure you’re using a paid account and opt out of model training.

Fully agentic

The new CLI tools play well with the Superwhisper plugins for Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex, and Pi. The plugin will notify you when an agent finishes and let you speak your next instruction back, creating a hands-free loop. The CLI and MCP server handle history, export, and context; the plugins handle the live back-and-forth. Together they let you drive a coding session almost entirely by voice.
