Pithflow

Dictate PR descriptions and code reviews

Most of a senior engineer's day on GitHub is writing prose — PR descriptions, review comments, RFC discussions. Pithflow puts text into every GitHub text field. The Concise tone and Build intent keep the output terse, with identifiers intact.

How to use Pithflow in GitHub

  1. 1 Open the PR you're about to create
  2. 2 Click into Description
  3. 3 Hold Ctrl + Space, dictate: 'Fixes the session refresh race condition. Two parallel refresh calls were burning the same refresh token, leaving the second caller with an expired token. Added a 30-second cooldown mutex around the refresh call.'
  4. 4 Release — formatted markdown-friendly description lands
  5. 5 Add testing notes (use a separate dictation for clean separation)

Frequently asked questions

Does it work on github.com?

Yes. Pithflow puts the text into whatever field has focus, so PR descriptions, review comments, issues and discussions all work.

Will it mangle code identifiers?

Not with the Build intent: it preserves identifiers like camelCase names and puts code in backticks.

Can it write Markdown lists?

With Smart formatting on, spoken lists become bullets and long dictation breaks into paragraphs. Add headings and code blocks by hand.

Does it work in VS Code and Cursor too?

Yes. It works in any editor or chat box that accepts typing, including VS Code, Cursor and their AI chat panels.
