What it does

🔇

Silent by design

Hooks produce zero stdout. No additionalContext, no conversation injection. All feedback lives on the statusline and on-demand detail card.

🏃

Rhythm coach

Error avalanche alerts, file grinding detection, session fatigue warnings. Your buddy watches your coding patterns and surfaces signals when they matter.

📈

XP and leveling

20 levels with gated feature unlocks. Gain XP from commits, tool usage, streaks, and daily interactions. Hatch at Lv.1, evolve at Lv.15, prestige at Lv.20.

🥚

Deterministic generation

SHA-256 based species, rarity, and stats derived from your username. Same user always gets the same pet. Plus a 1% shiny chance.

📟

Native statusline

Project folder, git branch, context window usage, pet mood, level, and coach signals — always visible in Claude Code. Three presence modes: quiet, focus (default), and lively.

🧾

Terminal detail card

On-demand pet status, art, stats, and recent activity via /buddy. The companion to the always-on statusline.
