Hatch a pet — no pixel-art skills required.

hatch-codogotchi is a Codex/Claude skill that generates a complete, animated Codogotchi from a seed image or a plain-text description. Your agent renders every frame, one row at a time, self-validates each strip, writes pet.json, and installs it for you.

image

Seed image

Drop a single 192×208 character image. Most consistent results — the agent extracts a reference and animates it across every state.

chat

Text description

e.g. "a chibi orange tabby in a tiny yellow hoodie, round head, warm pastel palette." The character is designed during the run.

How it works

Install the skill

Add hatch-codogotchi to your Codex or Claude agent.

Give a seed or description

Drop a 192×208 image, or just describe the character.

Agent generates rows

Frames are drawn one row at a time and self-validated.

Restart Codogotchi

It installs to ~/.codogotchi/pets/<id>/. Your pet is alive.
