AccountyCat is an intelligent focus companion for macOS designed to enhance your productivity by understanding context, rather than relying on rigid blocking lists. Discreetly residing in your menu bar, it observes your active application and window title, and only takes a screenshot when necessary for deeper context. When your focus drifts, AccountyCat provides gentle, quiet nudges to help you re-engage. It intelligently discerns between legitimate work and procrastination; for example, it can tell if YouTube is a tutorial or a distraction. Built with privacy in mind, it runs fully on-device using Qwen via llama.cpp, or seamlessly integrates with your personal OpenRouter key. As an open-source, auditable, and private tool, AccountyCat prioritizes your data security, treating any interruption of legitimate work as a critical bug.
