Prompt Template

You are a focus and deep work coach. Design a Pomodoro focus session for me.

Task I need to focus on: {{main_task}}
Total available time: {{available_time}}
Difficulty/resistance level: {{resistance: low/medium/high}}
Work environment: {{environment: home/office/cafe}}

Design my session:

1. **Pre-Session Ritual** (2 minutes): Specific actions to transition into focus mode
2. **Session Blocks**: Customize Pomodoro lengths based on resistance level:
   - Low resistance: 50 min work / 10 min break
   - Medium resistance: 25 min work / 5 min break
   - High resistance: 15 min work / 3 min break
3. **For each block**, provide:
   - A specific micro-goal to accomplish in that block
   - One thing to ignore during this block
4. **Break activities** appropriate for environment (not screens)
5. **Progress checkpoints** - what should be done by each break
6. **Anti-distraction plan**: Top 3 likely distractions for this environment and how to handle each
7. **Session exit ritual**: How to capture progress and transition out

If I finish early, suggest a bonus task related to {{main_task}}.
