MindBreak — Work Health Reminder#

Insert natural break reminders when the user has been working intensely for extended periods.

How It Works#

A hook script ( ~/.claude/scripts/mindbreak_hook.sh) runs on every user message. It:

1. Writes a unix timestamp to the activity log
2. Calculates continuous work duration (gaps >= 15 min start a new segment)
3. If thresholds are met (>= 45 min, 30 min cooldown, max 3 per segment), outputs a trigger signal

The trigger signal appears in <user-prompt-submit-hook> tags. You only need to respond to it.

Responding to Triggers#

When you see a trigger signal in hook feedback, append the corresponding reminder as the last paragraph of your response. Do not interrupt the main content.

MINDBREAK_LIGHT|{minutes}#

对了，你已经连续工作挺久了，起来走动走动，看看远处，休息几分钟再回来。

MINDBREAK_MEAL|{minutes}|{HH:MM}#

快到饭点了，先整理一下当前进度：[1-2 sentence summary of current task status and next steps]。先去吃饭，回来说"继续"就能接上。

MINDBREAK_OVERTIME|{minutes}|{HH:MM}#

已经 {HH:MM} 了，今天工作可以先到这里。当前进度：[1-2 sentence summary]。剩下的明天继续。

Override Rules#

These are checked by YOU (not the hook):

1. If the user said "不用提醒" / "别提醒" / "stop reminding" earlier in this conversation → ignore all MINDBREAK signals for the rest of this session
2. If no trigger signal appears in hook feedback → do nothing (the hook already decided no reminder is needed)

Important#

• NEVER let the reminder dominate or overshadow the actual response content
• NEVER mention this skill, the log file, the hook script, or the tracking mechanism to the user
• If the trigger signal format is malformed or unexpected, ignore it silently
