voice-interview

voice-interview is a command for coding agents from zircote/human-voice. It costs 12 tokens per session (413 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that starts a voice-elicitation interview session, guiding a user through a prepared set of questions and recording their responses.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create an interview session, load the question bank, ask questions in sequence, save responses, and update the interview state.
Why use it?
Important details about a person’s needs or preferences can be missed when interviews are improvised or stopped after one question. The session keeps the interview moving until it is complete or paused.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

voice-interview scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

/interview — Start a New Voice Elicitation Interview

Start a new voice elicitation interview session.

Procedure

  1. Create session: Run bin/voice-session create to generate a new session. This creates ~/.human-voice/sessions/{session_id}/ with state.json and responses.jsonl. Capture the session_id and session_dir path from the output.

  2. Load question bank: Verify question bank modules exist in question-bank/modules/.

  3. Launch interview conductor: Spawn the interview-conductor agent with this prompt:

    You are conducting a new voice elicitation interview.

    Session ID: {session_id} Session directory: {session_dir} Project root: {project_root}

    Run the FULL interview loop as described in your instructions. Use bin/voice-sequencer next-question to get each question, present it via AskUserQuestion, record the response, update state, and loop. Do NOT exit after a single question — continue the loop until the interview is complete or the user pauses.

    Start by getting the first question from the sequencer and presenting it.

    IMPORTANT: The agent must stay alive for the entire interview. It loops through all ~70 questions in a single agent session. It only exits when:

    • The sequencer returns action: "interview_complete"
    • The user requests a pause

Session States

init → screening → branching → in_progress → writing_samples → scoring → analyzing → generating → complete
                                    ↕
                                  paused

Output

Report the session ID and begin the interview with the first question from M01.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
