Dog

A widget that moves. Biscuit lives along the bottom of your screen, with no card around it, and keeps an eye on your agents:

• An agent starts waiting on you: it barks, sends one notification, then walks to the right edge and sits there wagging until you answer.
• A turn finishes: it jumps for joy.
• Every agent idle for a minute and a half: it curls up and naps. Any agent getting to work wakes it.
• Click it: if someone is waiting, it takes you to that agent; otherwise it sits and wags.

It never moves faster than a walk: crossing the whole screen takes it 14 seconds.

hive plugins install @dip497/dog   # then add it from the toolbar's Add menu
hive ctl plugin open @dip497/dog        # or let an agent place it
hive ctl plugin call @dip497/dog status        # what it is doing, and who it waits for

Options: its name, and quiet, which keeps the bark but drops the notification. It asks for no permissions: it reads the agents' states through hive.hm and goes to a tile with focusTile, which needs none.

dog.png is one sprite sheet, 6 frames of 32 px a row: walk, sit (wagging), sleep (breathing), bark and jump. Under reduced motion the app holds each row on its first frame.

How it was made

Built by a coding agent (Claude) from the widget contract (hive.d.ts and the Widgets guide); the sprite sheet was drawn by a short script, pixel by pixel. Its behaviour test is tests/widgets.test.ts in this repository, which runs widget.js with the same worker prelude the app uses.
