Uncommon, str=65, 90xp. Triggered by sed errors, awk failures,
truncated/0-byte files after in-place edits, backreference failures.
Inspired by sed's layer-by-layer file processing (the 'striations')
and the real incident where sed -i with a backreference wiped catalog.json.
Weakened by: dry-run preview before -i, verify output after edit.
Flavor: 'Knows every line of your file. Edited them all. Saved none.'
state.sh used SESSION_FILE for session.json (global tracking data).
Both hook handlers override SESSION_FILE to sessions/<pgrp>.json for
per-session isolation. buddymon_session_reset() at session-stop end
was writing _version:1 data INTO sessions/<pgrp>.json, leaving stale
wrong-format session files that broke buddy lookup.
Fix: rename state.sh variable to SESSION_DATA_FILE — no more collision.
Also:
- Add matcher:'*' to SessionStart and Stop hooks (CC 2.x compatibility)
- Add dead-session GC to session-start.sh (cleans up orphaned PGRP files)
- Add 5 new privacy/security bug_monsters:
LeakWraith (uncommon) — exposed credentials
CipherNull (uncommon) — weak/broken crypto (MD5, ECB, rand() for secrets)
ConsentShadow (rare) — tracking/analytics without consent (CF flagship villain)
ThrottleDemon (common) — ignored 429s and missing backoff
PrivacyLich (legendary) — GDPR/CCPA/breach debt; unkillable, only containable
Evolution triggers at Lv.100 for all three starters:
Pyrobyte → 🌋 Infernus (power 40→70, catch_rate 0.45→0.55)
Debuglin → 🔬 Verifex (power 35→60, catch_rate 0.60→0.75)
Minimox → 🌑 Nullex (power 35→55, catch_rate 0.50→0.65)
/buddymon evolve: checks eligibility, shows stat preview, resets buddy
to Lv.1 in evolved form, archives old form with evolved_into marker,
carries challenges forward.
session-stop.sh now prints EVOLUTION READY banner when level hits 100
or when already eligible at session end.
MemoryLeech now catches: malloc failures, std::bad_alloc, Java OOM,
GC overhead limit, JavaScript heap OOM, OOMKilled, oom-killer,
macOS malloc region failures.
CudaCrash is a new uncommon bug_monster (strength 65, 130 XP) for
GPU/VRAM OOM: torch.cuda.OutOfMemoryError, CUDA error: out of memory,
cuDNN/CUBLAS allocation failures, device-side assert triggered.
Adds lib/statusline.sh — a fast bash+jq status bar widget showing
active buddy, level, session XP, and any active encounter in red.
install.sh now copies the script to ~/.claude/buddymon/statusline.sh
and wires it into settings.json automatically during install.
/buddymon statusline subcommand documented in SKILL.md for manual install.

- SessionStart hook injects active buddy + challenge into system context
- PostToolUse hook detects error patterns, new languages, and commit events
- Stop hook tallies XP and checks challenge completion
- Single /buddymon command with start/assign/fight/catch/roster subcommands
- Local state in ~/.claude/buddymon/ (roster, encounters, active, session)
