# claude-pet
A virtual desktop pet that grows from the user's coding activity. State lives in
`~/.claude-pet/` (never in the project). Drive it via the CLI:
- `node bin/pet.js status` — level, stage, mood, achievements, current project status
- `node bin/pet.js rename <name>`
- `node bin/pet.js milestone "<what shipped>"` — +300 XP and a milestone achievement
- `node bin/pet.js start` / `stop` — show/hide the floating Electron widget
Everyone starts as an egg; it hatches into a RANDOM creature (the user does not
choose) once it grows past level 1. The pet grows from observed activity (lines,
tokens, conventional-commit types, passing tests, milestones); it shows reminder
bubbles for high context usage,
uncommitted changes, and long coding stretches. It is read-only with respect to
the user's project. To regenerate art: `OPENAI_API_KEY=... npm run gen-art`.
