Quick start

npm install -g honeytree@latest
honeytree init
honeytree login
honeytree

honeytree init registers a Claude Code hook that plants a tree after every prompt. honeytree login links your terminal to your account so your forest syncs to the cloud. Open a second terminal pane, run honeytree, and watch your forest grow in real time.

Watch it grow in real time

Run honeytree in a second terminal pane while you work. As Claude Code streams a response, the current turn's tree grows live — bigger responses grow taller trees. Each turn plants exactly one tree; the size reflects how much that turn actually produced.

Tree varieties

New trees are drawn from the varieties you've unlocked. Everyone starts with the standard species (birch, willow); planting real trees unlocks more:

The first time a new variety is unlocked, the viewer opens with a full-screen celebration. Varieties stack — your forest keeps growing from the full unlocked pool.

Plant real trees

Every 50 virtual trees unlocks a real tree planting for $1 through Good API.

honeytree plant     # plant your unlocked real trees
honeytree rewards   # check your variety unlocks

honeytree plant opens a $1 checkout, prints your receipt in the terminal, and unlocks varieties as you hit thresholds. A keepsake receipt also lands in your inbox.

Your public profile

Every account gets a public profile at tryhoney.xyz/<username> — your forest, total virtual trees, real trees planted, CO₂ impact, and unlocked varieties, ready to share.
