What it does: Replaces your new tab with a minimal, distraction-free planning space Prompts you to set a daily intention with freeform input Displays a gentle visual reminder of time's passage Creates a brief pause before you dive into browsing Why it exists: The days are long, but the years are short. This extension is for anyone who wants to approach their digital day with a little more presence and a little less autopilot. Design philosophy: Clean, Japanese-inspired aesthetic No accounts, no tracking, no complexity Works alongside you, not against you
