Description
Every break app I tried was a notification I dismissed without reading. So I built one that locks the screen instead — every display, no close button, and it survives a force-quit. You earn a token per break taken and spend one to skip a break you genuinely can't take. macOS, $19 once, no subscription.

Could you build this?
Yes It is a macOS menu bar/system utility written in Swift that creates a full-screen kiosk-style window across all active screens and handles process relaunch via a launchd daemon.
