Has anyone tried the /buddy Claude Code Easter egg in the terminal ?
Hi ! For those having a break, wish you a great relaxing time. If you have been using the Claude Code terminal, you might want to check out this Easter egg that was recently discovered. It turns out the Anthropic developers hid a tiny virtual pet in the code. It is basically a terminal Tamagotchi that just hangs out quietly while you work. Just as a heads up, since this is a hidden Easter egg specifically for the command line tool, it will not work in the standard Claude web chat. To trigger it, all you have to do is type /buddy into your session. Here is what happens when you do: - It picks a species: The tool spawns a little ASCII art animal. There are 18 different species it can pick from, like a cat, a duck, or even a capybara. - It rolls for rarity: Each pet has a random rarity level ranging from common to legendary. If you get an uncommon one or better, your buddy actually wears a little hat. It could be a beanie, a wizard hat, or even a tiny duck sitting on its head. - It keeps you company: It does not mess with your code or your prompts at all. It just sits there and has some hidden background stats that shift around based on your activity during the session. It is a really geeky Easter egg but a nice touch to make working in the terminal a bit more chill. I got this one below in mine. If you get a rare one with a cool hat, drop a screenshot in the comments. I am curious to see what everyone rolls.
