history
Project history and usage
pixtuoid is a terminal-native pixel-art dashboard that turns activity from AI coding-agent sessions into animated coworkers in a virtual office. It is a Rust project with a TUI, a floating desktop view, and integrations for agent CLIs including Claude Code and Codex.
Project history
The official GitHub repository was created in May 2026, and the first tagged release, v0.1.0, followed on May 24. The project quickly expanded from its terminal visualization into a multi-crate engine supporting terminal, desktop-window, and browser renderers.
Adoption history
By July 2026 the project had published twenty GitHub releases and documented support for thirteen coding-agent CLIs across macOS, Linux, and experimental Windows builds. Distribution spans Homebrew, npm, crates.io, prebuilt archives, and Debian packages.
How it is used
Users launch `pixtuoid`, open the Sources panel, and connect supported agent CLIs. Hook events and session transcripts then drive live sprites, status indicators, token meters, and a tree dashboard while remaining local to the machine.
Why package nerds care
The package is notable as a terminal-first observability layer for the emerging multi-agent coding workflow. Its separate `pixtuoid-hook` shim, XDG-aware TOML configuration, multiple installation channels, and shared renderer across TUI, native window, and WebAssembly make it an unusually polished young CLI package.
