The inverted Pomodoro for vibe coders.
Ropomo — short for Rotten Pomodoro — cures the AI-babysitting habit. Fire off Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor, then actually walk away. Classic Pomodoro maximizes your focus time; Ropomo flips it so the agent gets the long work block and you get a short handoff window. Start the tomato, leave the screen, and come back only when it's your turn.
One short human window. One long machine block.
1 · Hand off
Drop one precise prompt or review target. Then stop hovering.
2 · Let it run
Start the agent block. The app gets out of your way so you can leave the screen.
3 · Walk away
A local notification pings you the moment the machine needs a human again.
4 · Train the gap
“Overripe” time tracks every minute you relapse into babysitting. Shrink it.
Pick a vibe, or tune your own.
