What hatchery.pet is, what a pet is, and how to install one.

What a pet is

A pet is a small animated character that lives in Codex App as a floating overlay. It reflects what Codex is doing — idle, thinking, working, celebrating — and stays visible while you work in other apps.

What hatchery.pet is

hatchery.pet is the marketplace for Codex pets. Browse the catalog, install pets you like, and they appear in Codex App alongside the built-ins. The inaugural drop is 12 hand-crafted pets, free forever.

What you do here

Pick a pet from the catalog, then install it through Codex App or your terminal. Both paths land the same files in the same Codex home — pick the shape you already work in.
