{
  "species": "dragon",
  "rarity": "Epic",
  "shiny": false,
  "stats": { "debugging": 87, "patience": 23, "chaos": 91, "wisdom": 45, "snark": 78 },
  "soul": "A restless dragon with piercing analytical eyes, prone to chaotic coding sessions..."
}

get_buddy_stats

Get the 5 stats with percentile rankings.

Input: { "user_id": "alice" }

Returns: debugging, patience, chaos, wisdom, snark — each with value and percentile.

get_buddy_soul

Generate a random buddy encounter from a random seed. No input required.

Returns: A full buddy object with the seed used, for "what if" scenarios.

buddy_compatibility

Example Conversations

User: What's my buddy?

Claude: (calls get_buddy with your username)

You've got an Epic dragon (not shiny). Your standout stat is chaos at 91 — you're a restless dragon with piercing analytical eyes, prone to chaotic debugging marathons. Your patience is... 23. We won't talk about that.

---

User: Are me and @bob compatible?

Claude: (calls buddy_compatibility)

Score: 78/100 — Strong compatibility! Your dragon's chaos (91) compensates for bob's turtle's order (34), and you both share high debugging (87 & 82). The only tension: your patience gap (23 vs 89) might cause some friction during long code reviews.

---

User: Roll me a random buddy!

Claude: (calls roll_encounter)

You encountered a Legendary shiny axolotl! Stats: debugging 95, patience 88, chaos 12, wisdom 99, snark 67. "A regenerating axolotl that recovers from any outage, prone to methodical coding sessions."

How It Works

Your username is hashed and fed into a Mulberry32 PRNG to deterministically generate your buddy's species, rarity, stats, and soul description. Same input always produces the same buddy.

Species (18)

duck, goose, blob, cat, dragon, octopus, owl, penguin, turtle, snail, ghost, axolotl, capybara, cactus, robot, rabbit, mushroom, chonk

Rarity Distribution

Rarity	Chance	Stat Bonus
Common	50%	+0
Uncommon	30%	+0
Rare	15%	+5
Epic	4%	+10
Legendary	1%	+20

Stats

• Debugging — How ruthlessly your buddy hunts bugs
• Patience — How long your buddy waits before flipping the table
• Chaos — How much entropy your buddy introduces
• Wisdom — How deep your buddy's architectural knowledge goes
• Snark — How savage your buddy's code reviews are
