Type /buddy and it hatches a companion that watches you code, reacts to your mistakes, and has its own personality based on your coding history. There are 18 species, rarity tiers, shiny variants, and stats like DEBUGGING and CHAOS. It costs nothing and does nothing useful. It's just fun. Here's how it works and what I hatched.

Makers residency 4th edition

Your idea can be anything. At our last workshops, people built plant-based nutrition businesses, a way to measure planetary resilience, crochet headwear and a way to connect lonely people living in the same building. An asset manager went on to raise an additional £25M on their fund within nine months. The fourth workshop is a full day at KOKO with Nick Sarafa, learning to build with Claude Code. Bring the thing you keep meaning to start. We’ll bring the pizza.
