A COMPANION FOR YOUR WORKING DAY

Small paws. Useful shortcuts.

A few quiet ways to help you pick up where you left off.

01

Catch the moments that need you

An amber bell stays when a supported local request needs approval or an answer. Click it to return to that chat.

02

Back to the right chat

Hover over the cat to reveal its shortcuts. Return to your active or pinned Codex conversation, or choose a recent chat by its real title.

03

Keep your next step close

Leave a short bookmark beside a chat. When you return, your note appears beside the cat, ready for you to pick up the work.

04

Company at your pace

A little wandering, a toy ball, a glance at the cursor. Quiet greetings respect nighttime, work and your Do Not Disturb choice.

05

Your effort becomes growth

Local token usage can earn capped pet-coin rewards. Hatch cats, discover inherited traits and train their little tricks.

06

A short break, a little bond

Play a quick game, build practice and bond, and unlock toys, keepsakes and decorations for your cat’s room.

WHEN CODEX IS WAITING FOR YOU

Step away.
Your cat keeps the handoff in sight.

A reply finishes. A question needs your answer. A permission request waits. Pawprint gives each moment its own signal, so you know where to return.

Approval hook setup is currently available on macOS. Local question reminders use supported structured records.

A LITTLE SOCIAL LIFE

Let your companions meet.

Share a QR visiting card with a friend, or connect nearby homes on your local network for visits and breeding. Both people choose to connect; conversations and usage records stay on their own computers.

START WITH ONE EGG

Bring a little company to your desktop.

Start with an egg and a few simple shortcuts. New installs open in English with local work helpers enabled; existing preferences stay yours.

First-launch instructions

This beta is unsigned on Windows and ad-hoc signed on Mac. Verify the SHA-256 file from the release page. On Mac, move Pawprint to Applications; if macOS cannot verify the developer, choose Done and use System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway. If it says damaged, stop and report the build.

A few things to know

Does it use extra AI tokens?

The pet, work shortcuts, reminders, bookmarks and games run locally without making extra model requests. Your normal Codex usage follows your own plan.

What works on each platform?

Pawprint supports Windows 10/11 x64 and Apple silicon Macs. Chat return needs a compatible Codex desktop client. Native approval hook setup is currently macOS-only; local usage and supported question records also work on Windows.

Is there any setup for reminders?

New installs enable quiet local reminders and prepare Pawprint’s hooks when Codex data is found. Review and trust the labeled Pawprint rows in your client for approval alerts. You choose whether to add sounds or system notifications.

What stays on my computer?

Pets, bookmarks, rooms and usage data stay in your local profile. Pricing and update checks use their existing online catalogs. Nearby visits are optional and use your local network.
