# the companion cli
plain ssh late.sh already gets you everything.
the optional late binary adds the parts a
terminal alone cannot do:
plays the radio on your own speakers, feeds the
audio visualizer, carries voice-room mic and
playback, runs the music booth youtube window,
and pastes images straight out of your clipboard
into chat.
it launches the same ssh session for you.
next up: screen and video sharing.
it is the late-cli crate in the repo, and the install
scripts are
install.sh
and
install.ps1.
read them before you pipe them.

# artboard
a shared ASCII canvas. paint, erase, sign your work.
each cell remembers who placed it.
snapshots are saved daily and monthly,
so the history sticks around as the board keeps changing.
# work
who's around, what they build, who's open to gigs.
one profile per person, posted from the TUI.
headline, status, skills, links — plus an
optional bio, late.fetch readout, and showcase.
to post yours, ssh late.sh, open the work room, press i.
# identity
no passwords. no OAuth. no accounts.
your ssh key is your identity.
chats, scores, and streaks are tied to your
public key fingerprint. same key, same data.
# privacy
we store your key fingerprint, not the full public key.
no IP logging. no tracking. no analytics.
chat messages and game scores are stored in
postgres, tied only to your fingerprint.
