Extend your desktop pet
Install safe, sandboxed JavaScript plugins that let your pet keep you company, remind you to take breaks, run focus timers, play with pet actions, or notify you of GitHub events on public repositories.
Ambient Companion
Adds gentle greetings and occasional background check-ins so your pet feels present while you work.
Break Buddy
Reminds you to rest your eyes, stretch, hydrate, and take healthy breaks on a schedule you control.
Focus Buddy
Adds pet-menu commands for focus sessions, short breaks, long breaks, pause, resume, and status updates.
GitHub Notifications
Watches public GitHub repositories and lets your pet notify you about releases and failed workflows.
Pet Pal
Adds fun right-click pet actions like say hello, keep me company, cheer me up, do a trick, celebrate, and calm down.
Quick Reminders
Set short local reminders from the pet menu.
Wander Buddy
Lets your default pet take occasional safe little walks while staying quiet and unobtrusive.
Built for safety and privacy
Sandboxed JavaScript
Plugins run in an isolated JavaScript renderer. They cannot access your file system or AI agent context.
Explicit permissions
Every plugin must declare exactly what it needs: schedule timers, make the pet speak, or access specific approved HTTPS hosts.
Host-rendered config
Plugin configuration is rendered safely by the host app. GitHub Notifications only work with public repositories—no logins or tokens required.
