[DOCS] Voice mode (/voice) has no documentation outside the changelog
Documentation Type
Missing documentation (feature not documented)
Documentation Location
https://code.claude.com/docs/en/commands
Section/Topic
Voice mode is not covered on any documentation page. The /voice command does not appear in the commands reference, and no dedicated voice mode page exists.
Current Documentation
No documentation currently exists for voice mode. The feature is accessible via the /voice slash command but has no explanation in the commands reference, interactive mode page, or any other documentation page. Voice mode appears only in changelog entries across multiple releases (v2.1.75 and earlier).
What's Wrong or Missing?
Voice mode is a user-facing feature with multiple aspects that users need to know about:
A. Missing from commands reference
The /voice command is not listed in the slash commands table on the commands page, despite being a functional slash command.
B. No feature documentation
There is no documentation covering:
- What voice mode does (push-to-talk voice input)
- How to activate it (
/voicecommand) - Microphone permission requirements
- Supported platforms and any platform-specific behavior
- How to deactivate voice mode
The changelog reveals this feature has had multiple bug fixes (v2.1.75: "Fixed voice mode not activating correctly on fresh installs without toggling /voice twice"), indicating it is a mature, shipped feature that users actively use.
Suggested Improvement
Option A: Add /voice to commands reference
At minimum, add /voice to the slash commands table in the commands reference:
/voice — Toggle voice mode for push-to-talk voice input
Option B: Dedicated section or page
Add a voice mode section to the interactive mode page or a dedicated page covering activation, usage, microphone permissions, and platform support.
Impact
High - Prevents users from using a feature
