A MonkeyType-inspired typing game for your terminal — designed to play while waiting for Claude Code to finish processing.

<!-- TODO: Record a ~15s terminal demo GIF and replace this placeholder -->
<!-- ![Demo](docs/demo.gif) -->

Keep your fingers warm and your WPM sharp between prompts. Launch it from Claude Code with `/palate-cleanser:play` and get notified when Claude is ready.

## Features

- **MonkeyType-style typing** — character-level coloring (green/red/gray), rolling WPM, accuracy tracking, streak counter
- **Zen mode** — endless typing with live stats, no pressure
- **Timed mode** — 15s/30s/60s rounds with scored results
- **Three word categories** — programming keywords, English prose, algorithmic gibberish
- **Session persistence** — quit and resume anytime, stats saved to `~/.claude/palate-cleanser/`
- **Claude Code integration** — get a "Claude is ready!" notification with terminal bell when Claude finishes
