I recently built pace-coach! It is a MacOS CLI tool that watches your typing rhythm and sends a notification when you are in a stressed state for too long.
I built this because I tend to get into a rushed state sometimes when working/coding. In the moment, that is fine, and I might get a lot done. However, afterwards it can hit me hard, and crush my mental state.
I could not find a tool out there that addressed this issue, so I tried to build something that could assist me with my problem.
No data every leaves your machine, and it is configurable to your own liking. The core stress detection works by keeping track of the “correction rate”: the fraction of keystrokes which are corrections. Please checkout the README and the code in the repo for the technical details.
I am looking forward to receiving any feedback on pace-coach, feel free to reach out!
