What it does

Quick prompts without living in a full editor.

Drafty keeps the small Codex tasks close to the terminal. Use a global shortcut for quick tasks, attach files, or open a focused prompt editor from your CLI flow.

Drafty preferences window and quick task composer — Configure model presets and run compact quick tasks from the menu bar.

Quick tasks

Editor handoff

Open a small native prompt panel from the CLI external-editor flow, then return the text back to the terminal.

Voice drafting

Dictate a prompt locally and send only the transcript to the drafting model.
