AI Pair Programming
Open a markdown file while your AI assistant works. Watch task lists check off, tables populate, and code blocks appear—all in real-time.
The experience
AI coding assistants like Claude Code write progress to markdown files as they work. With Ohai open alongside your terminal, you see everything happen live: task lists checking off, tables filling in, code blocks appearing with syntax highlighting.
It's like pair programming where you can actually see your partner's thought process. No more waiting for the AI to finish—you follow along in real-time and can interrupt if it goes off track.

Pro tip
Ask your AI assistant to create a progress.md file at the start of complex tasks. Open it in Ohai and watch the work unfold.
