CodeTalker for Continue.dev

Continue (the open-source VS Code / JetBrains assistant) speaks MCP natively (via the YAML config).

Install

1. Install the daemon

pip install --user claude-code-talker

2. Add to Continue's config

Edit ~/.continue/config.yaml (or your assistant's specific config file):

mcpServers:
  - name: codetalker
    command: codetalker-mcp
    args: []
    env: {}

If you maintain an assistant via Continue Hub, add codetalker as a tool block on the hub. The codetalker assistant page is at https://hub.continue.dev/assistants/codetalker (TBD — submission planned in SP-7 of the launch master plan).

3. Reload Continue

VS Code → Command Palette → "Continue: Reload" — or restart your IDE.

4. (Optional) Continue rules block

In your config.yaml, you can add a system message guiding Continue's use of codetalker:

systemMessage: |
  You have access to codetalker tools (mcp tools from the codetalker MCP server).
  Use tts_set_mode to switch between direct/brief/live based on workload.
  Don't call tts_speak directly — narration happens via hooks.

Verify

In a Continue chat:

List the MCP tools available to you.

You should see codetalker.tts_speak, codetalker.tts_set_mode, and the rest.

Notes specific to Continue

  • Continue's "Quick Edit" command (cmd-I) doesn't typically need narration — it's fast. Save codetalker for "Chat" interactions and the autonomous "Agent" mode.
  • Continue supports MCP resources and prompts in addition to tools. CodeTalker currently exposes tools only; resources/prompts may come in v1.x.
