 Development 
Coopanion is a desktop pet. **Coo** lives on the bottom edge of your screen: it chats with you in speech bubbles, listens when you talk, walks along the edge, and with your permission can use your computer. It runs on Windows, macOS and Linux.
**Languages**: the app and its first-run guide are in 简体中文, 繁體中文, English, 日本語, 한국어, Français, Deutsch, Español (Latinoamérica), Português (Brasil), Italiano and Русский. A new install uses the system language (English when the system language is none of these). Upgrades keep the existing language. Change it under **Language** on the Habits page. Coo talks to you in the app language.
## Features
- **Many model services**: OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, xAI, OpenRouter, DeepSeek, Kimi, Qwen, MiniMax, Zhipu GLM, Doubao, Baidu Qianfan and StepFun. Pick one and paste an API key, or sign in with a ChatGPT account to use its ChatGPT plan.
- **Chat**: hold the talk key and speak, or type; Coo answers in a bubble. Speech is recognized on your machine with FunASR or Whisper, picked by the app language.
- **Memory**: Coo remembers what you talked about, and knows when you poke it or pat its head. What it knows about you goes in `PARTNER.md` in its workspace, which its prompt includes whole. Every change to the workspace is kept as a version; the Memory page in the advanced mode shows the history. The Windows build carries git; on macOS and Linux git has to be installed.
- **Computer use**: clicking buttons, typing, switching windows. Coo asks before it acts.
- **Activity bubbles**: see when Coo is thinking and what it is working on, with a different animated icon for reading, searching, writing and using the computer. File names appear; the bubble lets clicks through. On by default; turn it off in Habits.
- **Figures**: Coo, or the **DeepSeek Chan**, a fully animated whale girl with eight vendor color schemes and two outfits (a maid dress and a winter outfit). Other figure packs are imported on the Dress up page from a zip or a folder; packs written for figure API 2 keep loading in later versions (see the figure pack compatibility promise).
- **Dress up**: Coo's colors (five of them after Cultist Simulator's principles: Lantern, Grail, Forge, Heart, Winter), hats, earrings, glasses and neckwear, plus its size and how often it walks.
- **Extensions**: install Worlds such as a QQ bot, a drawing room and small games from the Extensions page.
What changed in each version is in Releases.
## Install
You need one of:
- Windows 10 / 11 (64-bit)
- macOS 13 or later (Apple silicon or Intel)
- A 64-bit Linux desktop (X11, or XWayland under Wayland); speech recognition needs glibc 2.32 or later (Ubuntu 22.04, Debian 12 and later)
You also need an API key from one model service, which bills you for usage (see Cost and privacy), or a ChatGPT account with a plan. The guide lists DeepSeek first when the app language is Simplified
