The MCP server integration is what makes this more than a nostalgia project. Everything in the terminal is about output and productivity, so building something in that space that's deliberately playful is a cool design decision. I'd actually want to see what happens when an agent tries to keep the pet alive during a long build.

I like how this lives across desktop, terminal, and agents without forcing one interface.The terminal version in particular feels very “builder-native.”Do you see most people using this as a fun side companion, or are you noticing more experimental/automation-driven use cases?

love that this works as both a nostalgic desktop toy AND a serious dev tool. we've been building MCP servers for healthcare data, but using one for pet care is genuinely clever. the permission system for agent actions is a nice touch - shows you've thought through the chaos agents can cause.

OMG. Congrats…
I remember the day my Tamagotchi had died. Heard a bleep in the middle of the night, grabbed it and saw that X-X on it. Just because it pooped it’s pants?? I cried so hard that i barely woke up and got prepared for the school.

This time it can’t die. Right? 🥹

Interesting to see 2 similar launches (Tamagotchi concept) in one day. Love it!
