The timer is the heart of BootTask and the clearest statement of what it is not. When the planned time runs out, nothing closes, nothing locks, nothing turns red and shouts. The display switches to an overrun count and the work continues, because real work does not follow a perfect clock.
How it works
- Elapsed time is derived from a start timestamp plus accumulated time, not from a running counter — so it survives Chrome suspending the extension.
- Add +1, +5 or +10 minutes from the Focus Bar without interrupting anything.
- Make the task unlimited mid-session to drop the limit and keep working.
- Time is capped after a real sleep or offline gap, so a night with the lid closed does not count as nine hours of focus.
