Three steps to start growing your coding slime.
Takes less than 30 seconds.

Include commit message titlesShow "feat: ...", "fix: ..." in your activity feed. First line only, 200 char cap. Change anytime in ~/.vibemon/config.

STEP 02 — CODE

Start coding. XP collects automatically.

Once installed, every edit you make earns XP. Works with Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Cursor, and Codex CLI.

every edit = 1 XP

File edits & writes are tracked via agent hooks

Claude Code hooks (7):

~/.claude/settings.json

{

"hooks": {

PostToolUse [Edit|Write|NotebookEdit]—Collects XP on file changes

UserPromptSubmit—Tracks prompt events

Stop—Records session pauses

Notification [permission_prompt]—Tracks permission requests

SessionStart—Marks session begin

SessionEnd—Marks session end

PostToolUseFailure [Edit|Write|NotebookEdit]—Tracks failed edits

}

STEP 03 — GROW

Watch your slime mirror your coding.

Your slime's look shifts as you code — automatically, no grinding or gates. Earn XP and unlock new species as identity costumes in the VibeMon app.

What We Collect

VibeMon does not collect your source code. The install script and client are fully open source — you can read every line at /install.sh.

Collected

Lines of code — how many lines were added or removed (just the count)

File path — e.g. src/app.tsx (name only, not contents)

Tool type — write / edit / notebookedit

Project name — from git remote (e.g. user/repo)

Timestamps — when activity happened

Never collected

×Source code, diffs, or file contents

×Variable names, function bodies, or comments

×Prompts you send to Claude

×Claude's responses or conversation history

×Environment variables or secrets

HOW IT WORKS — DATA FLOW

1.Claude Code triggers a hook on each file edit

2.notify.sh counts lines locally on your machine, then strips all code content before sending

3.Only the line count + file path + project name reach the server

4.The server records +1 XP and updates your slime

Troubleshooting

Verify hooks are installed

zsh

$cat ~/.claude/settings.json | grep vibemon

Reinstall

zsh

$curl -fsSL https://vibemon.dev/install.sh | bash -s -- YOUR_API_KEY
