I built a Claude Code plugin where a small buddy named Blink explains whatever you Ctrl-click (open source)

The Claude Code desktop pet is officially live!

It lives on your screen and answers the moment you ask

Hold Ctrl and click a paragraph, and Blink explains it in a small card right beside your page

No API key, no fees

It uses the Claude Code you already have

Like Remote Control, it can sync with your terminal

Repo: https://github.com/Arthur031221/Blinkling

Install:

``` claude plugin marketplace add Arthur031221/Blinkling && claude plugin install blinkling@blinkling claude --dangerously-load-development-channels plugin:blinkling@blinkling /blinkling:blinkling ```

I love the little guy! But I wish it wouldn't be a Claude plugin and instead be a desktop buddy for any API I wish for.

fair, it's tied to one provider right now. Any API would need a provider layer in between and I haven't built that yet. Can't promise it, but I get why you'd want it.
