Buddy Evolver is a Claude Code plugin that lets developers customize their Buddy terminal companion's species, rarity, emoji, name, personality, and stats through guided evolution commands.

About

Buddy Evolver is a macOS Claude Code plugin that lets developers fully customize the terminal Buddy companion through an RPG-style evolution flow. You choose species, rarity, emoji, name, personality, and stat distribution, then companion name and personality propagate into Claude Code while card flair stays plugin-local. Commands cover evolve, status, reset, and security audit with automatic backups. Reach for it when you want a personalized coding companion experience rather than project automation.

  • 18 species, 5 rarity tiers, custom emoji, name, and personality
  • Slash commands /buddy-evolve, /buddy-status, /buddy-reset, /audit-security
  • Name and personality sync into Claude Code companion data
  • macOS-only Swift-backed plugin with automatic soul backup
  • v2.0.0 separates from native /buddy via renamed commands

FAQ

What platforms are supported?

macOS with Xcode Command Line Tools and Claude Code with the Buddy companion feature enabled.

Can I undo an evolution?

Yes. /buddy-reset restores the pre-evolution soul backup and removes card metadata without restarting Claude Code.

Does this replace Anthropic's native /buddy command?

No. v2.0.0 uses /buddy-evolve, /buddy-status, and /buddy-reset so it does not shadow the native /buddy hatch flow.
