- neon bob haircut, blue spiral eyes, choker, laptop, and coffee mug
- idle, directional movement, greeting, heart gesture, excited bounce, facepalm, waiting, working, and review animations
- continuous two-hand typing while the user waits for the agent to finish working
- 16 clockwise gaze directions
- Codex pet sprite contract v2 (
8 × 11,192 × 208cells)

mkdir -p ~/.codex/pets/iris
cp iris-codex-pet/pet.json iris-codex-pet/spritesheet.webp ~/.codex/pets/iris/Restart Codex, or switch to another pet and back to Iris if it was already selected.
