Focus Session Manager is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from daffy0208/ai-dev-standards. It costs 45 tokens per session (3,491 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A focus-session manager for organizing work periods and breaks, with timers, health reminders, and gentle interruptions designed for people with ADHD. Pomodoro is a work method that alternates timed focus periods with breaks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to track coding sessions, schedule breaks, set flexible focus timers, and receive reminders about health and rest.
Why use it?
It helps prevent working for hours without noticing, missing commitments, or skipping breaks while deeply focused.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

Focus Session Manager scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Focus Session Manager

Protect your health. Maximize focus. Prevent burnout.

Core Principle

ADHD brains are prone to hyperfocus (ignoring breaks, health) and time blindness (losing track of time). The solution: Automated session management that tracks time, enforces breaks, and protects health without disrupting flow state.

Key Insight: You can't manage time you can't see. Make time visible and automatic.


The Focus Problem

Problem 1: Hyperfocus Burnout

Issue: Code for 4 hours straight without break Result: Exhaustion, health issues, reduced quality

Problem 2: Time Blindness

Issue: "I'll work for 30 min" → Actually 3 hours Result: Missed meetings, forgotten commitments, burnout

Problem 3: Break Resistance

Issue: "Just one more thing" never stops Result: No breaks, deteriorating health, reduced productivity

Problem 4: Disrupted Flow

Issue: Harsh timer interruptions break concentration Result: Frustration, ignoring timers, no break system


Phase 1: Automatic Session Tracking

Always-On Time Tracking

Starts automatically when you begin coding:

[Session Started: 14:00]

⏱️ Focus Timer Running
📊 Today's focus time: 0 hours
🎯 Goal: 4 hours
🔥 Current streak: 2 days

Mode: Deep Work
Next break: 14:25 (in 25 min)

Visible Time Display

Status bar shows:

⏱️ 23:45 | 🧠 Focus Session 1/4 | 💧 Water reminder soon

Session Types (Auto-Detected)

Deep Work: Complex coding, architecture

  • Duration: 45-90 minutes
  • Break: 15 minutes
  • Best for: New features, debugging

Quick Tasks: Bug fixes, updates

  • Duration: 25 minutes
  • Break: 5 minutes
  • Best for: Small fixes, reviews

Learning: Reading docs, tutorials

  • Duration: 30 minutes
  • Break: 10 minutes
  • Best for: New tech, research

Phase 2: ADHD-Optimized Pomodoro

Traditional Pomodoro (ADHD-Hostile)

❌ Rigid 25-min timer (might be mid-thought) ❌ Harsh interruption (breaks flow) ❌ Forced break (when you're in flow) ❌ No hyperfocus protection (ignores long sessions)

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
