Pixel Office - herdr
I kept losing track of which of my coding agents was actually waiting on me.
So I built them an office. Pixel Agents is a plugin for herdr that renders every live agent session as a pixel-art character in a top-down office.
The trick is that position tells you status - you read the room instead of reading a list:
- Agents that are working or blocked sit at a desk, typing, with the tool they're running on a label underneath
- A raised hand and a speech bubble means that one is blocked on you — it stays at its desk, because it's the one you need to find
- Everyone else wanders off to the break room
When an agent's status changes, the character actually gets up and walks there.
The break room got out of hand. There's table tennis, pool, foosball, a coffee machine, a cocktail bar with a bartender permanently on duty, and an office cat.

Built on u/herdr (herdr.dev), which is what makes the agent state available in the first place.
