Field notes

The page presents several controls for testing reactions in a browser and says the playground uses the same sprite code as the app. For agent integrations, it documents three local event paths and gives example curl commands; it also describes a one-click Claude Code connection. The listed extras include reminders, a Pomodoro timer, pinned notes, and appearance options.
