I do a ton of coding (codex) with a tts/stt wrapper. During walks, cycling, in the car. Not every task is suited to this style of interaction, but many are. Long form codex replies are condensed, code blocks are suppressed all in the name of making it work for tts feedback. So it works best on well defined projects with guardrails, where you know the agent can perform well.

That's fantastic. I have long, winding trails near me also and one of these days I also want to start prompting a coding agent on my bike with a headset. Do you recommend any particular type of headset?

Edit: never mind, I see you already suggested the Shokz OpenComm2 in another comment. Thanks!

This is extremely dangerous and you should stop doing it.

I can't honestly think of a case where this would be remotely useful. This goes somehow beyond vibe coding to vibe interaction, where the only feedback comes via the AI. I'd love to see a concrete example of this working practice.

During cycling! Do you have a phone mount on your bike that you use while biking or is it all in-ear?
