I measured my context switching by scanning Git commits

AI Analysis

MidSolve My Problem

Git-based context switching tracker, but time estimates rely on unvalidated research assumptions.

Strengths
  • Clever repurposing of Git history as a focus-loss signal
  • Simple setup with sensible defaults (30-min threshold)
  • Real output example showing actual context switches with timestamps
Weaknesses
  • Gap-based time loss is speculative—assumes all 74-minute gaps equal context switching, not breaks or parallel work
  • No validation that the 20-minute focus-loss number is accurate for this user's workflow
Target Audience

Individual developers, engineering managers, productivity-focused engineers
