Talking to Memnox
Press ⌥ Space, or tap the notch, and say what you want. Memnox understands plain words, so there is nothing to learn by heart. It answers out loud and acts where you can watch it.
You can talk over it at any time. It goes quiet the moment you start speaking and listens to the rest of what you say.
Start an agent
Name the agent and the folder, and say what it should do:
| You say | It does |
|---|---|
| Start Claude Code in studiolabs and check the git history. | Opens a new terminal in that folder, starts Claude Code with the task. |
| Open Codex in babco. | Opens Codex on that folder, waiting for you. |
| Start Claude Code in VS Code on Memnox runtime. | Opens a terminal inside VS Code and starts it there. |
| Open a new session in the client folder. | Starts a new session even if others are already open there. |
The folder you name is the one used, never one you use more often. When a name only sounds like a folder it knows, it asks you first rather than guessing.
"Claude Code" starts the terminal agent. Say "Claude desktop" or "the Claude app" for the desktop app.
Send work to a session
Tell Claude Code to push it, ask it to add a test for the cart, or tell my last session to run the build. Your words are typed into the agent's own window where you can watch them land.
Answer what an agent asks
An agent sometimes stops to ask you something: whether to trust a folder before it starts, whether to run a command, or which of several options to take. Memnox reads the question out with its choices and asks how to answer.
Answer in your own words, like yes, trust it or the second one. Memnox presses the keys for your choice in that agent's own terminal, and nowhere else.
For questions Claude Code asks in the middle of a session to be read out the moment they appear, run this once:
memnox protect --claude-hookQuestions an agent asks in a terminal are answered in Terminal and iTerm. In an editor's terminal, Memnox brings the window forward for you to answer.
Act in your team's tools
Ask about your Slack, GitHub, Linear, mail or documents, and act there in your own name, never a bot's:
| You say | It does |
|---|---|
| What did we say in Slack about the release? | Reads the messages and tells you. |
| How many pull requests do I have open? | Reads them from GitHub. |
| Send Neko a message saying the build is fixed. | Finds Neko, drafts the message on a card. |
| Reply to the review comment on my PR. | Drafts the reply for you to check. |
Reading works straight away in any tool your workspace admin connected. If you are the admin, reading needs nothing more.
Sending or changing something goes out under your own account, so the first time you do it in a tool, its icon appears under the notch. Click it, sign in once in your browser, and Memnox carries on with what you asked. Every message, comment or change is shown on a card first and only goes out once you confirm it.
People are found by name in your workspace, so Neko reaches the right person even when the name was misheard. When two people could fit, it asks which.
Your screen and your sessions
| You say | It does |
|---|---|
| What is on my screen? | Reads the window in front. |
| Show me that session. | Brings its terminal, editor or panel forward. |
| What is Codex doing? | Tells you what it is working on right now. |
| Which workspace am I in? | Says the name of the workspace this computer belongs to. |
