with claude doesn't this become cheating?
Claude can't git push for you. Yet.
it can certainly commit for you though ;)
I built Git Quest, it reads your public GitHub history and turns it into an idle RPG character.
How it works: - Your most-used language determines your class (TypeScript → Paladin, Python → Sage, etc.) - Commits generate Power and XP - Your character auto-battles dungeons while you code – no active play needed - Enemies drop loot across 5 rarity tiers - Live leaderboard ranks developers
It only reads public GitHub data.
I built it because I wanted something that rewards coding consistency without being another "streak" tracker. The idle mechanic means prolific coders naturally progress faster, but you don't have to babysit it.
Would love feedback on the game loop and whether the class/language mapping feels right.
