A desk pet for your coding agent

Your agent is busy.
Buffy is on it.

A tiny princess-cloud who lives on your desktop, reacts to Claude Code, Freebuff, and repo edits, then settles in for a nap when the work is done.

Buffy, a pink princess-cloud mascot with a crown, blue dress, and heart cheeks, waving

Little companion, big feelings

She’s there for the whole loop.

Buffy isn’t another chat window. She’s a small, always-on-top signal that your agent is thinking, working, stuck, or finished.

Agent-aware

Claude Code and Freebuff can send thinking, working, needs-you, and done. The repo watcher catches edits when your agent stays quiet.

Always in reach

A frameless, transparent overlay that floats above your windows. Drag her anywhere, tuck her into a corner, or hide her for ten minutes.

A whole wardrobe

Bows, berets, party hats, a wand, and four pastel themes. Her outfit is saved between sessions, because a princess needs consistency.

A little alive

Her eyes follow your cursor. Click to wave. After thirty quiet seconds she naps, and she stretches awake when you come back.

In her natural habitat

Small screenshots.
Big personality.

Real moments from the overlay — no mockups, no filters, just a small pink creature doing her best.

Buffy asleep with closed eyes and three floating Zs — **Quiet time**Thirty seconds of calm and she drifts off.

Buffy in a mint theme with a party hat and wand — **Party mode**Small celebrations for finished tasks.

Under the tiny crown

Small events.
One very small operator.

Buffy is not a chatbot. Agents send lightweight events to a daemon on 127.0.0.1; the daemon owns the state and the overlay draws it. Everything stays on your machine.

Buffy’s Windows installer includes the desktop app and its local daemon. Open it and she’s there — no npm setup for the pet itself.
