Your /hatch package

/hatch Shaft — A tiny detective with a bold 'turtleneck and jacket' look, exuding cool confidence.

Visual reference: dark turtleneck sweater, brown blazer, short curly hair, prominent mustache, serious expression, 1970s vibe.

Unique traits: idle: hands on hips with a confident stance; wave: gives a sly smile and nod; jump: spins with a flashy pose; review: adjusts collar with a charming smirk.

Style: 192×208 chibi pixel art, classic Pokemon DS sprite, transparent background, big head small body, clean readable silhouette. Retain Shaft's iconic visual identifiers from the reference above.
Kind: character
Vibes: edgy, focused

Save as ~/.codex/pets/shaft/ (pet.json + spritesheet.webp).
