Codex added live WebRTC voice conversations to its terminal UI
PR #43581 merged 2026-09-07T20:27Z adds feature-gated /voice, /voice mute and /voice stop commands driving local WebRTC audio with app-server signaling, plus live transcripts, microphone and speaker level meters, and captions preserved across thread switches. Codex speaks final answers from voice handoffs while keeping delegated reasoning and typed answers unspoken, and it stops voice and blocks late handoffs after a misalignment policy violation. Realtime event payloads and spoken text are stripped from receipt and debug logs.
