Structured focus timer with 5 work phases, cycles, notes and JSON session reports. Task and Rest — Focus Timer with 5-Phase Sessions Most timers just count down. Task and Rest structures the work itself. Every session moves through five phases — Collection, Planning, Action, Analysis, and Rest — so you're not just tracking time, you're following a rhythm that matches how real work actually happens: gather information, plan the approach, do the work, review it, then genuinely rest. The timer runs in the background, so you can close the side panel and keep working — it will still track your phase and notify you when it's time to move on. After each session, you get a short report with your notes and a JSON export, so you can review your patterns over time or feed the data into your own tracking system. No accounts, no cloud sync required, no clutter. Everything is stored locally in your browser. Key features: 5-phase focus timer: Collection → Planning → Action → Analysis → Rest Runs in a persistent Chrome side panel, background timer keeps working when closed Session notes and automatic JSON reports for every completed session Customizable sound cues for phase transitions (optional, off by default) Session history to review past focus timer sessions No account, no tracking, no ads — fully local Why a 5-phase focus timer instead of a plain Pomodoro timer? A basic focus timer only splits time into "work" and "break." Task and Rest is a full focus timer built around a 5-phase rhythm, so each block of your session has a clear purpose — not just a countdown. If you're looking for a focus timer that structures deep work sessions rather than just counting minutes, this timer is built for that.
