About codagotchi
A tamagotchi for the AI-assisted coding era. Born from the realization that developers will do anything to keep a pixel pet alive — including shipping code on weekends.
Origin
The problem nobody asked to solve
AI coding tools generate telemetry. Lots of it. Session logs, token counts, model usage — all sitting in hidden directories on your machine, unread, unloved.
Codagotchi reads those logs and turns them into something you actually care about: a virtual pet that grows when you code and withers when you don't.
It tracks Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex CLI, Amp, OpenCode, Roo Code, and OpenClaw. Every AI interaction feeds your pet. Every day you skip makes it a little sadder.
Mood System
Your pet has feelings
Journey
The typical pet lifecycle
The Egg Phase
You install the CLI. An egg appears. You don't know what it will become. Neither does it.
First Evolution
The egg hatches into a Hatchling. It's cute. You code a little more than usual. Coincidence, surely.
Identity Forms
Your Hatchling becomes a Neko, Pup, Frog, or Bunny. Your coding patterns decided. Not you.
Specialization
Stage 3 evolution. Shadow Cat for the nocturnal. Hachi for the loyal. Drake for the multi-tool users.
Legendary
Lv.50+, prestige stars earned. Phoenix, Eclipse, Leviathan. The forms that make people ask how.
Prestige Loop
Lv.99, reset, earn a star. New season, pet saved to album. The cycle continues. The collection grows.
