Ropomo is the inverted Pomodoro for vibe coders — the people babysitting Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor all day. Classic Pomodoro maximizes the time you stare at the screen. But when Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor is doing the work, staring is the problem — not the solution. Ropomo flips the timer: the agent gets the long work block, and you get a short, deliberate handoff window. THE LOOP • Give the agent a command, start a tomato, and swipe the app away. • When the block ends, an alarm-style notification pulls you back — the kind you actually dismiss. • While you're away, pop open the Prompts tab to park a thought (type it; dictation works too). • Back at your desk, check off the ideas you acted on. Train the gap longer over time. TWO TABS, NOTHING MORE • Timer — one big ring, Start & leave, and your "overripe" overrun (the time you relapse into babysitting). • Prompts — a quick local list to park ideas while away, with tap-to-complete. WHY ROPOMO • Built for the agent era — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor run long; you check in short. • Background-safe — the timer is timestamp-based, so it's correct even after your phone sleeps. • An alarm-grade local notification brings you back exactly on time. • Three presets (Rotten Pomodoro, Reverse Pomodoro, Overripe Long Run) or fully custom durations. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No cloud. No tracking. Everything — settings and your prompts — stays on your device in a local database. Ropomo collects nothing.
