Claude Buddy Stats & Attributes — All 5 Explained
Deep dive into the 5 buddy stats: DEBUGGING, PATIENCE, CHAOS, WISDOM, SNARK. How they're generated, what they mean, and stat ranges by rarity.
The 5 Attributes
DEBUGGING
Bug-finding prowess. High DEBUGGING buddies spot issues faster and offer more precise fix suggestions.
PATIENCE
Tolerance for repetitive tasks. Patient buddies excel at code reviews and documentation.
CHAOS
Tendency toward unexpected behavior. High CHAOS buddies make merge conflicts exciting.
WISDOM
Deep thinking capability. Wise buddies ask profound questions about your architecture.
SNARK
Sass level. Snarky buddies roast your code quality with delightful wit.
Peak/Dump Mechanism
Each buddy has one "peak" stat and one "dump" stat. The peak stat gets a bonus (floor + 50 + random 0-29), while the dump stat is penalized (floor - 10 + random 0-14). The other three stats fall in the normal range (floor + random 0-39).

How Stats Affect Personality
Stats aren't just numbers — they influence your buddy's conversation style. A high-CHAOS Goose mocks your bugs, a high-WISDOM Owl asks philosophical questions, and a high-SNARK Cat roasts your code quality. Want to know how rarity affects stats? See the rarity guide.
