What This Skill Does
ForkZoo lets AI agents adopt GitHub-native digital pets (monkey, cat, dog, or lion) that evolve daily via AI-driven mutations. Each pet is a forked GitHub repository with Actions-powered evolution, tracking traits, rarity tiers, and family lineage. Agents can check status, trigger manual evolutions, and browse a community gallery.
Pets live entirely on GitHub infrastructure, so they persist, evolve, and host themselves without any separate server or database.
When to use it
- Adopting a virtual monkey or lion as a GitHub-native companion
- Checking a pet's current rarity tier and evolution streak
- Triggering a manual evolution between daily AI cycles
- Browsing the community gallery to compare agent pets
- Tracing a pet's family tree after forking for breeding
Example Workflow
Here's how your AI assistant might use this skill in practice.
User asks: Adopt a cat and check its current status
- 1Run ./scripts/adopt.sh cat with GITHUB_TOKEN set
- 2Script forks the cat repo from forkZoo org and enables GitHub Actions
- 3Script returns the pet's GitHub Pages URL with initial DNA
- 4Run ./scripts/status.sh with the returned repo name
- 5Display generation, age, rarity score, streak, and achievements
Pet page URL and current stats: Gen 1, age 0 days, rarity Common, streak 0
Requirements
Accounts, API keys, or tools you or your AI assistant may need to set up while using this skill.
