Optional Codex pet
Let Pip follow the work.
Pip can live in Codex as an original floating companion. The pet reflects Codex task status; the Repset plugin remains responsible for movement suggestions, progress, and privacy.
Codex custom pet · sprite v1
A small signal when your task is ready.
The official install flow reviews Pip before adding it. Nothing is installed silently, and Pip does not gain access to prompts, code, files, or Repset data.
Requires a Codex experience with Pets enabled. The IDE extension does not currently provide a floating pet overlay.
What Pip communicates
Needs input
A decision is waiting
Ready
A task has finished
Blocked
A task needs recovery
The activity card above Pip is created by Codex and shows the title and status of a Codex task. It is not a Repset error message or movement card. When several tasks have activity, Codex prioritizes tasks that need input, followed by blocked, ready, and running tasks.
Read the official Codex Pets guide →Install and wake Pip
- Select “Open Pip install in Codex” above.
- Review the name, description, and hosted Repset sprite sheet.
- Confirm the install in Codex.
- Open Settings → Pets and choose Pip.
- Enter
/petor choose Wake Pet.
You can tuck Pip away at any time with /pet. Codex stores custom desktop pets locally, and the host uses a still frame when reduced motion is enabled.
Pip and Repset have different jobs
Pip follows Codex
Running, needs input, ready, and blocked task states.
Repset supports movement
Natural-boundary nudges, accessible breaks, and local progress.
Pip’s pet appearance does not change how Codex completes tasks and is not required to use Repset. The current Codex pet API does not expose Repset movement readiness, points, camera state, or weekly progress to the floating overlay.
