An experiment by smeidu
A place for
your next thought.
ONO is an opinionated desktop browser agent. Bring your browser, agents and files into one workspace. Make a little room for what comes next.
Give your work a place
A project.
An interest. Your day.
Make a workspace for each part of your life. Useful pages, conversations and local files stay close, ready to pick up where you left off.

Somewhere new
An endless stripe. One workspace.
More room. Same place.
Stripe View puts your browser, agents and files side by side along an endless stripe. Each window keeps its width. Move to the next thought, focus on one window, or see the whole workspace in Overview.
Browser
A place to start.
Find the references. Keep the useful pages close.
Agent
Think it through, together.
Compare the options and shape the next step with an agent beside your work.
Document
Make room for an idea.
A rough outline. A few good questions. Your own Markdown, saved in your workspace.
Files
Your work, on your Mac.

Agent
Follow the next thought.
Open another window. The stripe grows; the windows around it keep their width.
Stripe View · Research · 50% window width
Follow the stripe.
Switch windows with ⌘⌥← and ⌘⌥→. A small map shows your position and how much of the workspace is in view.
Keep the width you need.
Drag an edge, or cycle widths with ⌘⌥R. A wider window lets its neighbours extend beyond the screen.
One workspace, three distances.
⌘⌥1 for Overview, ⌘⌥2 for Stripe View, ⌘⌥3 for Fullscreen. Your windows keep their order.

A little help, close by
An agent beside
your work.
Every workspace has its own Workspace Agent and file browser. Think through a question, make something, and keep the result in your own files.

What would make this
your desktop?
A useful moment. A little friction. An idea you can’t shake. Your experience helps shape ONO.
About 2 minutes · Every perspective helps
A more personal computer
Follow your thinking.
Less effort moving context between tools. More space to follow a thought, make something and pick it up again later.
