How to run the bridge engine headless from a config file with GPT Voice Coding

Start the Python engine directly with a config file instead of through the menu-bar app.

Short answer: Clone the repository with git clone https://github.com/Simon-AI-coding/GPT-VoiceCoding.git and change into the folder; then install the package from the repo root with pip install -e ., then add the optional audio path with pip install 'gpt-voicecoding[voice]' if you need the Live Call; write a configuration file following docs/control-plane.md in the repo. All steps.

Who it is forA developer who wants to run the bridge from a terminal or script on a Mac, for example to test changes to the engine.

The problemThe menu-bar app is the default way in, but a developer may need the engine running on its own to inspect or modify it.

The outcomeA single Python asyncio engine runs from the command line and watches your sessions without the menu-bar app open.

What you need first

  • An Apple Silicon Mac with Apple's Command Line Tools (xcode-select --install)
  • Python 3.12 or newer available as python3 on your PATH
  • Claude Code or Codex installed
  • Codex signed in with a ChatGPT account (codex login), needed for the Live Call
  • Telegram account, optional, for the second reply route

Steps

  1. Clone the repository with git clone https://github.com/Simon-AI-coding/GPT-VoiceCoding.git and change into the folder. (inferred, check the README)
  2. Install the package from the repo root with pip install -e ., then add the optional audio path with pip install 'gpt-voicecoding[voice]' if you need the Live Call. (inferred, check the README)
  3. Write a configuration file following docs/control-plane.md in the repo.
  4. Run python -m gpt_voicecoding.engine --config <path-to-config> in Terminal. (inferred, check the README)
  5. Read docs/control-plane.md and docs/adr/0001-hub-and-spoke-bridge-core-with-seams.md to see which seams and adapters the engine uses.

Prompt for your agent

Using the repo Simon-AI-coding/GPT-VoiceCoding, install the package from source and start the engine with python -m gpt_voicecoding.engine --config <config-file>. Report the engine startup output and the path of the config used. Verify by confirming the process stays running without the menu-bar app open.

Caveat. The README gives the engine command and the voice extra install but not the base install command or the config file format, which live in docs/control-plane.md.
