Games above the Claude Code prompt: snake, Tetris, 2048, Minesweeper, Flappy, Pong, a typing test and Space Invaders, plus a pet that grows as Claude tests, commits and edits
README preview
# cc-arcade Games above the Claude Code prompt, for the minutes Claude spends working. Run `/arcade`, pick a game, and play it right above the prompt while Claude works on your request. When Claude finishes the turn, the game pauses and its status line says so, so you never miss a reply. A pet grows alongside, fed by the tests Claude passes, the commits it makes and the files it edits. Playing costs no tokens: the plugin answers every click and command itself, without asking the model.   Nine games and a pet: snake, Tetris, and Doom — a first-person corridor shooter raycast into half blocks, with four floors, three monsters and three weapons — plus 2048, Minesweeper, Flappy, Pong against the computer, a typing test and Space Invaders. Each board has one status line underneath with the score, the controls that matter now and your best score. The plugin is built on Claude Code **function hooks**: TypeScript that runs inside Claude Code's own process, instead of shell-command hooks. They are in early access, so they need the environment variable the quick start sets, and the API can change between Claude Code releases. ## Requirements - Claude Code 2.1.269 or later, the first build whose function hooks draw above the prompt, with `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FUNCTION_HOOKS=1` set. The quick start shows where. - An interactive terminal session. Nothing draws in `claude -p`, the desktop app or mobile. - A terminal that reports the mouse. One click is what gives a board the keyboard, and the picker buttons, doom, Minesweeper, Flappy, Pong and Space Invaders use the mouse too. - A terminal font with box-drawing and block characters. Modern terminals are fine; the old Windows console draws them as boxes.
