Meet the Nomlings

Nomlings is a desktop app for raising a nomling: a tiny pixel creature that
lives on your screen and grows as you work. Yours hatches from an egg, evolves
through Baby, Teen, and Adult forms, and reacts to what you do all day.

Bee

If you use Claude Code, your nomling feeds on your sessions: finished tasks
hatch and level it up, tool calls earn XP, and token usage keeps it fed. Prefer
just a desktop pet? Poke it, feed it, and watch it grow.

Highlights

  • A creature that grows with you: Egg to Adult across four forms, with a
    live XP bar and level readout.
  • Make it yours: the cosmetic pack unlocks alternate bodies, device
    shells, and free screen/pet coloring. Purely visual; XP and snacks carry
    over.
  • Stays out of the way: always-on-top, click-through, and float options;
    drag it anywhere. Right-click opens settings.
  • Adjustable UI: size your nomling and scale the settings menu to taste.
  • You're in control of updates: the app only ever checks for new
    versions; updating is one click in settings and never happens on its own.

Downloads

File Notes
Nomlings_0.1.2_x64-setup.exe Windows installer (recommended). Per-user, no admin.
Nomlings_0.1.2_portable.zip Portable build: unzip, add to PATH, run nomling setup.
SHA256SUMS.txt Checksums; verify with Get-FileHash <file> -Algorithm SHA256.

Windows SmartScreen may warn because the binaries are unsigned: click
More info, then Run anyway.

Getting started

  1. Install and launch. Your egg appears.
  2. Poke it or start coding to make it hatch.
  3. That's it. The installer wires up Claude Code for you, so keep running
    claude as usual and your nomling feeds on every session. (On the portable
    zip, run nomling setup once to do the same.) Full guide in the
    owner's manual.

This is the first public release. Feedback and bug reports are very welcome.

Changelog (v0.1.2)

  • One-click updates: the UPDATE button in settings now downloads,
    verifies, installs, and restarts for you. No more trip to the browser.
    Downloads are cryptographically verified against the app's built-in key
    before anything runs, and nothing ever updates without your click.
  • The update check now re-runs hourly and when settings reopen, so a running
    app notices new releases without a restart.
  • (from v0.1.1) Nomlings forage: one snack on their own every 30 minutes
    (max 5), even while the app is closed. Pets without Claude Code never go
    unfeedable.
