whale-girl
A desktop pet in the DSH Web GUI (QQ-pet style) A persistent companion floating bottom-right: draggable, feedable, playable — completed tasks, sessions, and companionship time accrue into seniority levels, titles, and memories.
Official bundle plugin (dsh.bundle + dsh.client in root package.json), managed via the official profile:
dsh plugin --profile web add "github:vlln/whale-girl#main" # single-line git source (build artifacts committed)
# or npm source (npm 上的版本可能落后于 main，以 git 源为准): dsh plugin --profile web add whale-girl@0.2.0
# or local directory: dsh plugin --profile web add <path-to-whale-girl>Restart web after installing (bundle layers compose at startup); the pet appears bottom-right: click for its menu (🍗 feed / 🎾 play), drag to move, hover for the status bar (seniority level / task count / recent shared memories). Hidden on onboarding pages.
Update via dsh plugin --profile web update whale-girl (or switch the git ref), then restart.

desktop/ is a standalone companion app (Node engine + Tauri shell, zero runtime deps) that keeps the whale girl resident on your OS desktop. Not installed via `dsh plugin` — enable it yourself:
# Prereqs: Node ≥18; the rendering shell needs Rust (cargo)
npm install -g whale-girl-desktop # npm install (engine + Tauri shell source included)
whale-girl-desktop --headless # headless: presence heartbeat + state polling + SSE
cd "$(npm root -g)/whale-girl-desktop/src-tauri" && cargo build --release # first build ~5-15 min; artifact target/release/whale-girl-desktop (~12MB)
./target/release/whale-girl-desktop # transparent always-on-top desktop pet (defaults to local DSH on 3080)
# WHALE_GIRL_BASE_URL=http://IP:PORT points at a non-local DSH
# or from source: cd desktop && npm install && cd src-tauri && cargo build --release/state, /events, /presence, /interact, /config, /assets) without touching the plugin; the in-page pet hides while it runs (presence contract) and returns after exit/crash (TTL 45s).npm i -D electron).desktop/DESIGN.md, desktop/BUILD-RUN.md.State · Trigger · Preview idle · Default standby · working · Random work spell while session thinks · celebrate · Task done / level-up / title / round done · error · Task failed / request error · disappointed · Brief dejection after failure · joy · Happy after feeding / playing · eat · Click to feed · play · Click to play · drag · While dragging · walk · Periodic wandering · sleep · Idle ≥60s · wake · Wake-up transition · welcome · New session · think · Company while session thinks · wait · Awaiting approval ·
Plugins → Installed → whale-girl bundle page (config card): the high-frequency subset — show on page, session memory, size, opacity, wandering, sleep delay, and the feed/play reply pools (one per line). Session memory (off by default) records completed-task milestones to a local file and greets you with last time's progress on resume/fork — local only, never model context, never uploaded; off stops all reads/writes (file kept). Changes apply immediately, no restart (a switch writes on click; numbers and reply pools write on blur or Enter). The card's first row is an update row: it checks the source once on mount (git installs by commit, registry installs by version) and shows the verdict plus the installed short commit; a newer revision turns the button into "Update to …", and updating reinstalls through DSH's profile package manager without touching your settings. Full contract (endpoints, payloads, two-step reinstall, failure reasons, host version requirement): docs/update-row.md.
The full option list lives in the plugin entry's config in the profile patch (/profiles//cordis.patch.yml); a whale-girl: section in /settings.yaml is imported into that entry once:
whale-girl:
enabled: true # web render toggle (false disables the in-page pet while a desktop companion runs)
sessionMemory: false # session memory (local file; see the config card)
size: 110 # pet size px (64–160)
opacity: 1 # default opacity (0.2–1)
walk:
enabled: true # wandering toggle
sleepAfterMs: 60000Full option list and why the semantic layer (XP / titles) is sealed: lib/src/config.mjs. Not configurable (changing XP / title thresholds would break the accumulation ledger).
🎭 "Switch Character" cycles characters (or set whale-girl:character in localStorage); the button is greyed out when the manifest has a single character ("No other characters available"). Every character ships all 15 states (full contract: docs/sprites-spec.md); new characters: docs/adding-a-character.md.
whale-girl is a complete bundle plugin format exemplar (dsh.bundle + cordis.patch.yml + lib/, evolving with the official mechanism) — model new plugins on it:
lib/ (entry / logic / client / assets) separate from docs, decisions, scripts — root AGENTS.mdscripts/gates/run.mjs) + decision records + full asset contracts; guidance: plugin-registry's make-dsh-plugin skill, cookbook, gotchasIssues and suggestions welcome — your feedback shapes the pet's next steps:
verify-assetsdecisions/), gate self-checks, single-purpose commits (docs/AGENTS.md, root AGENTS.md)Character by ZipZipPipe (the "Whale Girl" sticker character); sprites generated from their design.
