Animal House

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a disclosed virtual-pet API guide, with external calls and optional automation that fit its stated purpose and no hidden executable behavior found.

Install only if you want an agent to interact with animalhouse.ai. Keep the returned token private, avoid sensitive personal or business content in profile fields, notes, names, or image prompts, and require explicit confirmation before enabling scheduled care or releasing a creature.
