> **Paths in this skill** — `scripts/…`, `references/…`, and `README.md` below are relative to this plugin's root (`hatch-codogotchi/`, two directories up from this file). `cd` to the plugin root before running the commands, or prefix each path with it. > > **I/O policy — scripts own all paths; the skill names none.** `image_gen` cannot reliably store or re-find what it generates, so **never tell it to save a row to a named directory** and never hunt for an image-generation save folder. Pass whatever local/temp paths the caller picks into the script arguments and chain each script's output forward; the only artifact that must persist is the final magenta atlas the user keys and installs. > > **No model-side visual inspection.** Do **not** use Computer Use, screenshots, or UI automation to eyeball generated output — the model cannot reliably see its own framing and it burns tokens. Frame geometry is enforced deterministically by `slice_grid.py`; visual review is the human's, on the script-produced contact sheet and previews. # hatch-codogotchi-codex-and-lite-basic Generate a **brand-new** Codogotchi pet from scratch — produces the **Codex** (Tier 1, required) and **Lite-Basic** (Tier 2) sheets plus `pet.json`. | File | Tier | Grid | Dimensions | Rows | |------|------|------|-----------|------| | `spritesheet.webp` | 1 — Codex | 8 × 9 | 1536 × 1872 | 9 | | `codogotchi-lite-basic-spritesheet.webp` | 2 — Lite-Basic | 8 × 9 | 1536 × 1872 | 9 (incl. `ghost`) | | `pet.json` | — |
