I built my own open-source tool to do exactly this so that I can run something like `claude $(hns)` in my terminal and then I can start speaking, and after I'm done, claude receives the transcript and start working. See this workflow h

GPT-5 was supposed to make choosing models and reasoning efforts simpler. I think they made it more complex. > GPT‑5’s reasoning_effort parameter can now take a minimal value to get answers back faster, without extensive reasoning first.
