tooluniverse-use-shared-computer

Use tools that run on a colleague's computer (for example models on their lab GPU) or tools other scientists published, through ToolUniverse. Covers redeeming a share code that starts with TU-SHARE-, finding the tools, and running them. Use when the user has a TU-SHARE- code or an invitation, says "use my colleague's model", "run the tool on the lab GPU", or asks what shared or community tools are available.

# Use a colleague's computer or a published tool

Colleagues can share the tools on their computer, and scientists can publish single tools to ToolUniverse. The tools run on their computer; nothing runs on the user's. The person you are helping is usually a scientist: keep it plain.

## 1. Join with a share code (once per computer)

A colleague sends a code that starts with `TU-SHARE-` (sometimes inside an invitation message). The user redeems it once:

1. Open https://connect.aiscientist.tools/dashboard (sign in if asked).
2. Paste the code into **Use a colleague's computer** and click **Join**.

The code is the colleague's to give; do not post it anywhere else. If the page says the code is invalid or expired, ask the colleague for a new one.

If ToolUniverse runs locally on this computer instead of the hosted service, the same code works with `tu connect TU-SHARE-...`.
