What it does

Half of Claude Code is waiting. claudemon makes that time a game: your prompts are steps through the grass, every 20s of work another step. Something jumps out, the status line says so, you fight it in a second terminal tab. All 151, fully local, no account.

Wild Pokemon appear while you work in Claude Code. Your prompts are steps through the grass. The original 151, fully local, in a terminal tab of its own.
