Please describe your idea.

I'd like to add a Monkey pet to VS Code Pets! But with an optional twist - it could sync with ForkMonkey, a project where monkeys evolve daily via AI.

Core proposal (Phase 1):

• Regular monkey pet with color variants (brown, golden, gray, purple)
• Standard animations: idle, walk, run, chase, with_ball
• Works like any other pet - no special features required

Optional enhancement (Phase 2, separate PR):

• Users who have a ForkMonkey GitHub repo could link it
• Monkey appearance would reflect their repo's DNA traits
• Evolution notifications when their monkey changes overnight

Describe how the idea would be helpful

1. Monkeys are fun! - A beloved animal that fits the pet collection
2. First "living" pet - Optional GitHub sync would make it evolve over time
3. GitHub community tie-in - Connects coding with the pet experience

What I'll provide:

• ✅ Pixel art sprites (8fps GIFs, matching existing style)
• ✅ All TypeScript implementation
• ✅ Translations
• ✅ Tests

Questions before I start:

1. Is a basic monkey pet something you'd accept?
2. Would the optional GitHub-sync feature be too complex/out of scope?
3. Any art style guidance?

• ForkMonkey Demo - See the monkeys in action
• ForkMonkey Repo - MIT licensed

Happy to start with just the basic monkey if the sync feature is too much! 🐵
