Make it yours
Leave it there for company or call it down when the moment needs<br>something extra.
🪟 Keep it close
It hangs quietly at the top of your screen and never gets in<br>the way. On crowded days, send it behind your windows and it<br>keeps watch from the desktop.
⌨️ Call it down
Hide it on ordinary days. Bring it back before a deploy,<br>demo, interview, or anything else that could use some luck.<br>Here, ⌃D toggles it and ⌃S performs its ritual.
🎯 Give it a ritual
Paint the daruma's eye. Replace a tired garland. Repaint the<br>guardian. Every charm has one small thing it can do.
💬 Share the story
It shows up in screenshots and screen shares. When someone<br>asks, you have a story to tell.
Bless a moment
Lucky Dangle also listens for luckydangle://. Add<br>one line to a script, shortcut, or git hook and the charm comes<br>forward, drops in, and performs its ritual right on cue.
# before a deploy, a demo, a big meeting<br>open "luckydangle://bless"
