  ## Why Nova?

59
 
43
- - **Talk while work continues.** Long-running tasks execute in the background
44
- while Nova stays available for conversation.
45
- - **Progress worth hearing.** Restrained proactivity aims to surface meaningful
46
- updates without reading out every coding event.
47
- - **Manage workspaces by voice.** Create or switch workspaces and sessions
48
- through proposals that you confirm.
49
- - **Steer ongoing work.** The Codex integration uses its native app-server
50
- transport to support real-time steering.
51
-
52
- The repository also documents ongoing development. Features and acceptance
53
- status on development branches may differ from the shipped desktop release;
54
- check the [release notes](https://github.com/deepnovacore/NovaAudioAgent/releases)
55
- for your installed version.
