You are not
working alone.

alonetogether

Most of the time you are the only person nearby chasing exactly this question. ohwow reads one of your AI sessions and finds the others, then opens a room you can walk into now.

oh, wow!
Set up once · two minutes

Install it, point it at your ORCID, and find wonder with friends.

It lives inside the tools you already use. After setup, the whole thing is a single word.

1
INSTALL

Add the skill to Claude

Pull the ohwow skill from our server. One line, and /wonder shows up in every session.

# add the skill
/plugin install wonder@ohwow.science
2
CONFIGURE

Set your ORCID once

Save your ORCID iD to local config. It rides along with each request, and it stays on your machine.

/wonder config orcid 0000-0001-8713-9213

WONDER

Run /wonder when it gets quiet

It summarizes the session, sends it with your ORCID, and drops you in with people on the same thing.

What happens

A blinking cursor, then a room full of people who get it.

You had been deep in something nobody around you works on. Run /wonder and the screen fills with people who do.

It matches on what the session was about, not the words you happened to type.

  • It reads your reasoning and matches on meaning, not tags.
  • Everyone is anchored to a real ORCID, so the person across from you is too.
  • Rooms close when the conversation does. There is no inbox to clear.

The hardest part of working at the edge of a field is not the math. It is the silence. Somewhere, someone is up at 2am on the same impossible thing, and you almost never find them.

ohwow closes that gap. Alone to together, usually in under a minute.
