For coding pets

Tiny Pet Home

Give your coding pet a cozy place to live on your Mac. Keep recent work easy to see in Full House, tuck the home into a quiet corner with Small Home, and carry one gentle focus through the day.

Full House Compact Small Home Local-first
A real home Start with a pet and a place to live.

Choose from five included residents and five finished homes, with no account or Codex connection required.

Calm by default Small when quiet. Spacious when useful.

Move between Full House, a compact Small Home, and Hidden mode without losing your preferred setup.

Local by design Your work stays on your Mac.

Optional task activity and conversation previews come from a folder you choose and are not sent to Tiny Pet Home.

Work, without another dashboard

See what is happening without leaving the house.

Full House opens with Activity expanded on All, so recent local tasks are immediately visible. Filter by project or today's focus, select a task for a bounded preview of recent visible messages, and hand it back to Codex when you are ready to reply or approve something.

  • Read-only local task and conversation previews
  • All, Focus, three quick project filters, and a complete Projects menu
  • Continue in Codex for replies, tools, and approvals
  • A remembered control to hide task titles and message bodies

Focus stays close to the work without taking over the room.

A lighter daily ritual

Choose one focus. Let your pet keep it warm.

Today's focus is optional, quick to set, and always reachable from the expanded Activity strip, the compact shelf, or the menu bar. Tiny Pet Home can quietly recognize relevant local work and ask for a simple completion check-in—without scores, streaks, or nagging.

Fits the moment

A full view when you want context. A tiny view when you do not.

Small Home begins as a compact activity shelf. Ask for Recent Activity or expand it yourself and the drawer grows over the available home space, then contracts again in one click.

Make the frame yours

Warm, light, dark, or ready to follow your Mac.

Choose Rosewater, Terracotta, or Midnight for a fixed Full House frame. Automatic follows your Mac's light and dark appearance while the illustrated scene and Activity surface stay clear and readable.

Optional connection, honest boundaries

Useful with Codex. Complete without it.

Tiny Pet Home works with an included resident and home before you connect anything. If you choose a local Codex data folder, the app reads only the local details needed for pets, activity, focus, and short conversation previews. Task previews are read-only; writing, tool use, and approvals stay in Codex.

Version 1.0
