Conversation
A natural conversation, right beside the character.
Responses stream near the character's face. Alongside history, useful names and preferences can be reviewed and deleted as character-specific long-term memory.
Windows desktop companion
A companion you can
talk to, right on
your desktop.
It listens, remembers what matters to you, and builds with Codex inside a character home or a project you choose. Results open right inside the conversation, with your PuruPuru companion always nearby.

CODEX WORK MODE
LIVE PREVIEW
One companion, many roles
Talk. Move.
Get work done.
It appears when needed and returns to quiet when the moment passes. Staying out of your way is part of the design.
Alive, not distracting
Breathing, gaze, and hair motion.
Just enough life while idle. Interact with the character and it responds with its own expression and words.
Codex Work
Move from conversation into real work.
Codex works only inside the active Character Home or attached project. Progress, operations, and results stay in history, and a turn can be interrupted at any time.
Codex Avatar Studio
Turn one illustration into your companion.
Generate eye, mouth, expression, and hair layers together with initial motion settings, personality, and speaking style. The result is ready to use as a PuruPuru character.

Voice
Speak to it. Hear it answer.
Explicitly choose Codex Realtime, local sherpa-onnx, system recognition, or OpenAI transcription. Speech providers and voices are stored per character.
Permission in context
Permission requests stay in the conversation.
Screen sharing and browser control ask first. Only a clear continuation of the same operation can reuse permission for up to five minutes.
Character Home + artifact preview
From a request
to something you can see.
Each character gets a durable home for notes, artifacts, and project continuity. Attach an existing folder without moving it, switch the active workspace, and open what Codex created without leaving the conversation.

- 02Preview the actual outputRendered Markdown, highlighted code, images, PDF, audio, and video.

Permission, privacy, control
More than charm.
Clear boundaries.
- 01Codex manages ChatGPT authentication
CharaDock never receives the authentication token.
- 02Screen, browser, and computer access asks first
A clear continuation lasts up to five minutes. Another site or purpose asks again.
- 03Work is scoped to a selected folder
Conversation is read-only; Work can modify only the location you choose.
For builders
