Description
TouchGrass is a context-aware break reminder built for macOS. Most break reminders only know one thing: time. TouchGrass waits through meetings, calls, media playback and screen recordings, counts time away from your Mac as a completed break, and reminds you to blink, improve your posture and rest after long typing sessions. Everything runs locally, never asks for Accessibility permission, and respects your workflow. 7 day free trial, then a one time purchase of $3.99 with lifetime updates.

Could you build this?
Yes It is a native Swift macOS menu bar utility that polls non-invasive system APIs (CoreAudio device active states, IOKit user idle time) to time breaks and display overlay windows.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a agent / copilot tool for Agriculture yet.
