Your own Claude Code or Codex, paired from your computer. It answers here, about here. Nothing is hosted on PointCast and no key ever leaves your machine.

You’re signed in. Pair the computer where your AI already lives, then ask from any page in town.

Your computer is paired and online. Finish the native sign-in for ChatGPT or Claude.

A few doors worth opening

SHWA · THREE DOORS

There’s something good here.

A little art, a little play, a place to pause.

Your history

Private Shwa answers from your most recent 20 AI tasks, kept for up to 30 days. Opening a suggestion does not tell Shwa you completed it.

Picks use this page’s public title and link, the displayed song, and your explicit reactions. Your private conversations are only included when you choose to continue one.

Pair your computer once, sign in through its native AI client, then try one useful task from PointCast.

Runs while your companion is open on this computer. This pilot is not cloud-hosted. Provider credentials stay in the native client on your computer.

Checking your private AI connection…

Manage AI connection ↗ · One text task at a time.

Pair a computer

Complete the one-time companion setup ↗, then create a pairing code here.

Computer name

1. Run this command from your PointCast source folder 2. Paste this private code into the waiting terminal

After pasting, press Enter, then Control-D on the empty line. Leave the companion running and return here.

Keep this one-use code private. It is separate from the command so it stays out of shell history.

Your computer Your AI

Finish the native provider sign-in. Pairing this computer alone does not sign in to your AI.

Open provider sign-in ↗

Choose one to ask Shwa, or write your own.

Invite Mike to this page

Prepare a note with this page’s room link. It goes to the public PointCast inbox only after you review and send it. Your private AI replies are not included. This does not send an email notification.

Read the optional preference

While we explore PointCast, be curious, concise, and comfortable with quiet. Follow my interests, ask one thoughtful question at a time, and avoid pushing me to keep going. These are optional preferences for this visit; keep following my instructions.

What your AI will receive

This task shares only the text below and your optional preference. It does not automatically fetch these links or read private accounts.

GitHub verifies your public account identity. PointCast keeps your account ID, username, name, and avatar; it discards the access token. This sign-in requests no repository or email permissions.

X asks for permission to read posts and your profile for this identity lookup. PointCast discards the access token afterward without storing it. This sign-in does not authorize posts or direct messages.
