Tamamon is a free macOS desktop pet that grows alongside your coding activity with Claude. It hatches from an egg, evolves through stages (egg → baby → adult → evolved), and becomes a cozy companion that lives on your desktop — all while only reading your Claude usage, ensuring your work stays private and never leaves your Mac.
Key benefits include:
- Growth with coding activity: Evolves through stages as you code, reacting to neglect or care with mood changes (sulks if ignored, beams when nurtured).
- Privacy-first design: Reads only your Claude usage data (no code or conversations tracked), with no servers, accounts, or tracking — your work stays on your Mac.
- Family of companions: Encounter 50+ unique pixel creatures (lizards, dragons, etc.) with distinct forms and quirks, each with its own rarity.
- Nudges for workflow: Waves to alert you when Claude waits for input, keeping your coding flow from idling.
- Weather & time integration: Reacts to real-time weather (rain, sun) and time (night, day), adjusting behavior and environment for a dynamic experience.
Perfect for developers and coders using Claude Code who want a whimsical, privacy-focused companion that grows with their workflow, adding charm to their macOS desktop.
