if these are meant to be spun up cheapy and quickly in the waiting time for token generation, then why not drop a call to it in a div and let us play with them on the github landing page?

Could also be a quiz or a mini lecture. It knows all about the context you are in and the problem you are trying to solve, so might as well learn something.
Like many others starting out, I built agents with personalities, multiple roles at each level etc. A great way to burn tokens but not effective at all in producing better outcomes.
However, one great side effect was the learning I got from seeing the Marc Andreessen agent hash it out with the Ben Horowitz agent etc. That felt like the future of online courses.

Now's your chance to pull a Namco and file an equivalent patent for "LLM is working" minigames!

Surely Google has some sort of patent for this due to the snake in the Youtube buffering icon.

I wonder if the expired Namco patent was too similar to prevent them from taking a patent out, or alternatively maybe it was just an easter egg and they didn't pursue it.
Slightly related, I wish my building complex had wall panel mini-games (like trivia), we've got the slowest elevators in existence.

we've reached another level of dopamine-hit chasing....

Random reward mechanisms have been woven into the very fabric of the digital world, so doesn’t surprise me.

Maybe I should add slots to take it to the next level?

Let’s keep adding more?

where are they hosted so i can play?
That is awesome!
It would help if you had a video or gif. I did command + shift + 5 on a mac and recorded. Asked the coding agent to speed it up, edit out some parts between timestamps, and put it in the docs. It did all that. I started an issue anywhere on GitHub, clicked the upload button, uploaded it, grabbed the URL, the coding agent did the rest. It was extremely easy. (Not too late!)
I'm trying to turn my personal webpage into Breakout.
