Lifeline Timer

macOS / Productivité

See your entire workday at a glance. Lifeline lives in your Mac's menu bar and draws a real-time "lifeline" of your day: a visual timeline of focus sessions, meetings, breaks, and idle time. One look tells you exactly how your day is going.

Work in focused sessions and earn a tomato every 25 minutes. It’s Pomodoro timing done right, with breaks your brain will actually thank you for.

## Why Lifeline?

Most timer apps just count down. Lifeline shows the shape of your whole day, not just the next 25 minutes. When you can see your time, you make better decisions about it.

## Features

Visual Lifeline: A progress bar in your menu bar paints your day in real time. Open the floating panel for a detailed view.

Focus sessions with tomato rewards: Start a session, stay focused, earn a tomato for every 25 minutes of real work.

Committed mode: Lock yourself into a session. Strict breaks enforced, no skipping or shortening. Calendar-aware, so breaks adjust if a meeting is coming up.

Meeting tracking: Connect your calendar. Lifeline tracks meetings alongside sessions with break suggestions after.

Configurable break ratios: Choose Pomodoro (5:1), Deep Rest (3:1), or set your own ratio. Lifeline tracks break debt and reminds you when you need a break based on how much you've actually worked.

Keyboard shortcuts: Start sessions, trigger breaks, navigate entirely from the keyboard.

AI tool integration: Control Lifeline from any AI assistant via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Analyze your productivity, start sessions from your AI workflow, or build custom automations. Full AppleScript support included.
