The Take

It drops a single SwiftBar plugin into your menu bar and cycles live countdowns for 'before work', 'work', and 'after work' sessions with a one-line curl + install.sh — neat for anyone already running SwiftBar. Smart, low-friction approach: no heavy app to run, just the plugin refresh loop that keeps the timer visible. It's useful and well-scoped, but not groundbreaking — I'd like quick options for custom session lengths and audible alerts.
