Pets for Cursor▲93
I created an extension which adds a custom pet to your editor (Cursor/ VS Code/ Windsurf compatible). https://github.com/blairjordan/codachi As you type, your pet hatches, acquires XP and evolves. A playing card is generated when your pet evolves. All pixel art is original and hand/ mouse drawn.
