The `dialog` commands allow you to interact with your Voiceflow project through a conversational interface. You can start new conversations, record them for later use, replay previous conversations, and create tests from your interactions.
### Available Commands

| --- | --- |
| [start](./start.md) | Start a new conversation with your Voiceflow project |
| [replay](./replay.md) | Replay a previously recorded conversation |
### Common Options
All dialog commands support these common options:
| Option | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `--environment`, `-e` | Voiceflow environment to use (default: "development") |
| `--user-id`, `-u` | User ID for the conversation (optional, will generate a random ID if not provided) |
### Basic Usage
Bash
```
# Start a new conversation in the development environment
voiceflow dialog start
# Replay a recorded conversation
