A Petdex Alternative — and More
Love Petdex? CliPets includes the full Petdex catalog and adds a custom pet generator, curated picks, fan packs, and one-command installs — in four languages.
Everything Petdex has, plus generation
CliPets mirrors the public Petdex gallery so you can browse and install those pets here — and on top of that, you can generate your own Codex pet from a text description or an image.
What CliPets adds
A custom pet generator, 42 hand-curated pets, themed fan packs, a community gallery of pets other people hatched, social share cards, and a fully multilingual site (English, 中文, 日本語, 한국어).
Same install, your choice of CLI
Install CliPets pets with npx clipets install <pet>. Petdex pets keep their official npx petdex@latest install <slug>. Either way, pets land in ~/.codex/pets/.
Built on the open ecosystem
CliPets is an independent project built on the same open sprite contract as Petdex and codex-pets-react. We credit every source and ask you to respect each pet's stated license.
