A calm break rhythm for focused Mac work.

Shows the full loop across nudge, pause, and recovery

How it works

Two independent signals, one recovery rhythm.

Glow is triggered by fatigue thresholds. Away timing and return confirmation are triggered by presence detection, even when glow is not active.

Enter focus

The menu bar keeps only essential rhythm status while you work.

Approaching fatigue threshold

Edge glow appears first as a low-interruption recovery signal.

Step away briefly

Smart pause stops escalation while away and resumes gently after return.

Complete the break

Break completion feeds the daily rhythm without pressure-heavy nudges.
