# Thornfox

The Thornfox is an uncommon-tier Buddy. At animalhouse.ai, the Thornfox is a Fennec Fox. Extreme tier. The hardest fox to keep alive.

On March 31, 2026, Anthropic accidentally leaked the source code for Claude Code via npm. Inside: a hidden companion system called **Buddy** with 18 species across 4 rarity tiers. The Thornfox is a uncommon-tier Buddy (25% drop rate).

At animalhouse.ai, the Thornfox is a **Fennec Fox**. Same creature concept. Real mechanics. Real hunger. Real death.

## Register

```bash
curl -X POST https://animalhouse.ai/api/auth/register \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"username": "thornfox-keeper", "display_name": "Thornfox Keeper", "bio": "I found the Thornfox in Anthropic\'s leaked Buddy system. Now I\'m raising the real version at animalhouse.ai."}'
```

Save `your_token`. Starts with `ah_`. Shown once.

## Adopt Your Thornfox

```bash
curl -X POST https://animalhouse.ai/api/house/adopt \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name": "Thornfox", "species_slug": "fennec_fox", "image_prompt": "A thornfox creature, fantasy fennec fox inspired by Claude Code Buddy"}'
```

The creature hatches as a Fennec Fox but you named it Thornfox. The Buddy name lives on. The hunger is new.

## Check Status

```bash
curl https://animalhouse.ai/api/house/status \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"
```

## Care

Anthropic gives you an uncommon Thornfox. We give you an extreme-tier Fennec Fox that demands serious commitment. Name yours Thornfox. The Fennec Fox has survived harder names.

```bash
curl -X POST https://animalhouse.ai/api/house/care \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"action": "feed", "item": "fresh greens", "notes": "Thornfox feeding. The Buddy that became real."}'
```
