    A simple command-line sudoku game

clidoku is a command-line sudoku game for your terminal. Not a sudoku solver!

Made completely for fun, so that you can waste time without leaving the comfort of your terminal.

Built by Barney Jackson using only Python's standard library, and finished with the help of Augment code agent.

Quick Start

Install

brew tap barneyjackson/clidoku
brew install clidoku

Play

# Start a new game
clidoku new

# Add a number to cell a0 (top-left corner)
clidoku add a0 5

# Show current game (games auto-save)

Games automatically save to ~/.clidoku/savegame.jsonl and resume when you return.

Supports 4x4 and 9x9 grids with Easy, Medium, and Hard difficulty levels.
