This sucks. I use Claude -p over tailscale to code over voice when I’m on the go for accessibility reasons, and most of the time I do the same while at the computer. Running through $200 in API pricing takes no time. Oh well, time to switch providers I guess.
Out of curiosity, why do you use `claude -p` for that over remote control? I use that for similar work.
The biggest difference is that mine is audio-first - it reads everything out over Android tts by default, and runs a computer-side parakeet + Silero VAD server for transcription (My eyes struggle with small screens, though I use it text only occasionally). It's like a voice assistant but with Claude Code. I also made a custom GUI the with shortcuts and stuff, making saying "end conversation" actually end the conversation etc.
Maybe something similar can be done with tmux still, I'm definitely going to explore it
Ah so you use it because the STT you can run on your computer are a lot better than what you can run on your phone?
I use on-device STT with Claude Code's built-in remote control feature to do what you do without needing claude -p, but I guess I don't use it for large enough quantities of text where on-device STT quality becomes a big issue.
