pomodoro

What it does

The Pomodoro skill provides a simple timer based on the Pomodoro Technique, facilitating focused work intervals interspersed with short breaks. It tracks completed "pomodoros" (work sessions) and offers basic productivity analytics over time. Users can initiate timers, pause them, and view their session history to understand their work patterns.

When to use it

• A user requests a timer for focused work: “Can you set a timer for 25 minutes so I can focus on writing?”
• Someone wants to track their productivity: "How many Pomodoros have I completed today?"
• To understand daily work patterns: "Show me my Pomodoro history from last week."
• A user needs help structuring their workday: “Start a Pomodoro timer and remind me to take a short break afterwards.”

Key capabilities

• Starts a 25-minute work session (Pomodoro).
• Initiates a 5-minute short break.
• Tracks completed Pomodoros.
• Provides basic productivity analytics (e.g., number of Pomodoros completed per day/week).
• Pauses and resumes timers.

Example prompts

• “Start a Pomodoro timer.”
• "How many Pomodoros did I complete yesterday?"
• "Pause the timer."

Tips & gotchas

The skill assumes users are familiar with the Pomodoro Technique (25-minute work, 5-minute break). It offers basic tracking; more advanced analytics might require integration with other tools.
