Code while you play. CoW lets you ask Claude Code or Codex about your project from a popup inside World of Warcraft, then keep playing: you get an alert when the agent replies. A free desktop app (Windows and macOS) runs the agent on your PC, only in folders you allow, and read-only unless you turn on edits. Up to 16 chats, each with its own folder, agent and history. The agent also knows your quests and position, and can drop map markers or start a leveling guide.

Could you build this?
Partial The desktop app that runs Claude Code or Codex is easy to build, but an in-game popup inside WoW depends on the restricted addon API and a workaround for how the game reaches external processes.
What it would actually take: A real version needs a WoW addon in Lua for the in-game popup and alerts, plus a local desktop app that runs the agents in allowed folders. Because WoW addons cannot open network connections, the two sides must communicate through files such as SavedVariables or an external bridge, which is fragile and dependent on game patches. Expertise in WoW addon internals and careful sandboxing of the agent are needed.
