@DuriDuri DuriDuri released this 18 Sep 13:25

The first public release. cludex is a terminal arcade to play while your coding agent works. It has a daily developer trivia round and leaderboards grouped by work email.

Daily Trivia

  • 10 developer questions a day, two in each category: AI & Agents, Code, Systems, Tech History & People, and This Week in Tech.
  • Everyone gets the round at the same moment, and it closes at your local midnight. You get one attempt, and you're scored on correct answers and speed, out of 100.
  • Options are numbered 1–4. Move with the arrow keys or answer with a number.
  • A status-line alert in Claude Code, plus an optional desktop reminder before each drop.

Games

  • Runner, Golf and Invaders. Runner, Golf and Invaders scores are replayed and checked by the server before they reach a leaderboard. Pac is included but not ranked yet.
  • The game can pause when your coding agent needs you (cludex install-hooks).

Leaderboards

  • Today, This week and All time, for each game and overall. The overall board uses F1 points: 25, 18, 15 and so on down to 1.
  • Everyone, your company, or companies ranked by the sum of their top ten players.
  • Navigate everything with the arrow keys. Press Enter on a row for details.

Account

  • Sign in with a work email and pick a public handle. Your company is set from the email's domain.
  • cludex feedback rates cludex and sends a short note.

  • npm i -g cludex, brew install duriduri/tap/cludex, or the install.sh script from GitHub Releases.

Advanced: the archives below

Each archive holds one standalone cludex binary; check it against SHA256SUMS (shasum -a 256 -c SHA256SUMS --ignore-missing). On macOS, use one of the commands above instead: the binaries are not notarized, and macOS blocks them when downloaded through a browser.
