Research direction
Find the session prompt input and existing voice input controls, then read how slash commands are registered and handled. Add /voice on and /voice off behavior for dictation into the prompt; verify that each command enables or disables transcription and that spoken input appears in the prompt.

Description
Describe the feature request
Problem
I want to control voice dictation directly from the session prompt with a slash command (/voice on), instead of having to find and click a UI control.
Proposed solution
Add a /voice slash command to the session prompt input. /voice on enables voice dictation, so speech is transcribed into the prompt box; /voice off disables it. This would behave like the /voice command in Claude Code in the terminal, where spoken input is transcribed into the prompt.
Alternatives considered
Using the existing UI controls for voice input. Claude Code's terminal /voice is the reference behavior.
Additional context
Scope is dictation (voice transcribed into the prompt), not a two-way spoken conversation.
