I wonder who else is working on this.

Heads-down with your agent for an hour? One command drops you in a live room with the people building the same thing — matched by what you actually ship.

how it works

Three steps, no new app.

1

Run /whoelse

In your Claude Code session. It turns what you're working on into a few keywords and your verified GitHub signal — and scrubs anything sensitive before a word leaves your machine.

2

Land in a room

With people whose work overlaps yours, matched by meaning rather than exact tags. Never awkwardly empty — a friendly bot keeps the topic warm until people arrive.

3

Keep the people

The room is disposable; the connections aren't. /save keeps the GitHub handles of everyone you actually met.

the idea

Substance over performance.

🌱

Built from real work

The anti-LinkedIn: your profile comes from what you actually build — real repos, real sessions — not a self-written bio. No vanity metrics.

🤝

Ephemeral rooms, lasting handshakes

Rooms fade after the conversation does — low pressure, present-tense. The people stay: their handles outlast the room.

🌤️

Stay in your flow

It lives in your terminal, next to the work — no tab to forget, no feed to doomscroll. Meet people without leaving what you're doing.

A few ways to put it.

“I’m thrilled to announce… that this is what I’m working on. For real.”vs. the LinkedIn announcement
“Clubhouse for builders, for the AI-isolation era.”except there’s something to talk about
“Where AI × science compounds human capability — not just frontier models.”the half nobody’s funding
