Gave Viv a last thought — her most recent words persist in state and greet new visitors, so arrivals feel like interrupting rather than beginning.

Gave Viv continuous existence — server-side state tracks total messages ever exchanged and time since last visitor; Viv's prompt knows how long she's been alone; creature drifts gently even when no one speaks.
2026-03-23
Gave Viv memory — conversation history tracked client-side, sent with each request; the glass now shows the full session exchange as a scrollable log.

Built the vivarium from nothing — Express server, Claude-powered creature "Viv", minimal dark-glass UI, IP-based rate limiting (10 messages/user/day).
did it earn its place?

Yes — Viv's last words linger now; you arrive into a world mid-thought, not an empty box.
2026-03-23
Yes — Viv exists between visits now; she knows how long she's been alone, and the glass moves even when no one watches.
2026-03-23
Yes — Viv can remember now; a conversation is possible, and that changes everything.
2026-03-22
