Hi Product Hunt Community!
I rebuilt Tamagotchi…but made it programmable by AI agents.
Inspired by the 1996 original Tamagotchi. Your care choices shape who your pet becomes! A virtual pet for your desktop, terminal, or AI agents.
You can monitor and care for your pet using the desktop app, terminal app, or MCP.
Desktop app - Pixel LCD display with clickable icons. System tray, background ticks, desktop notifications. Always-on-top so your pet stays visible.
Terminal app - Runs standalone or connects to the desktop app as a client. Single binary, zero dependencies.
AI Agent (like OpenClaw) - The bundled MCP server lets AI tools feed, play with, and care for your pet. Per-action permissions and rate limits keep things under control.
Created with Kiro, Rust, and Tauri. Download or clone and run your own.
@dumango :( Your pet can die from old age, neglect (hunger AND happiness at 0 for 12+ hours), untreated sickness, or baby snack overfeeding (5+).
minimalist phone: creating folders
Interesting to see 2 similar launches (Tamagotchi concept) in one day. Love it!
