Description
From the marketplace listing
Plan work sessions and run pomodoro timers right in the conversation. Ask for a 25/5 or 50/10 pomodoro timer for studying, a countdown timer for a talk or a workout set, or a work/rest interval timer, and Zovo Focus Timer shows a live countdown with a progress ring, the current phase, round dots, and Start, Pause, Skip, and Reset buttons. A soft chime marks the end of each focus block and break (it can be muted). The timer is calculated from a stored end time rather than by counting ticks, so it stays accurate when the tab is in the background or the device is busy. If the timer was running while you were away, it catches up to the right phase when you come back. Plan a study or work session: say "I have 3 hours to study until 5pm" or "plan pomodoros from 9:00 to 12:30 with a lunch break" and Zovo Focus Timer fits as many whole pomodoros as the window allows, skips your fixed breaks, and lists blocks with clock times, total focus minutes, and any spare time. If the standard 15-minute long break would cost you a block (3 hours fits 6 pomodoros with a 10-minute long break, but only 5 with a 15-minute one), it shortens the long break and tells you; set your own long break to keep it. Give a time zone as a city, an IANA name, or an abbreviation such as EST, and clock times stay correct across daylight-saving changes, including nights when the clocks go back and an hour repeats. Download an .ics calendar file to add each focus block to your calendar app, then start the live timer from the plan; if you start during the planned window it lines up with the clock. Good for studying, deep work, writing, exam revision, practice sessions, and interval training. Limitations: the timer runs while the conversation is open and cannot send phone notifications; sessions are limited to 24 hours; plans schedule whole focus blocks only; focus history is not saved between conversations.

# Zovo Focus Timer
Use `show_focus_timer` when the user wants a timer now:
- "pomodoro timer", "25/5", "50/10", "pomodoro timer for studying" -> `mode: "pomodoro"` with `work_minutes` and `short_break_minutes` from the ratio (defaults 25/5, long break 15 after every 4 rounds, 4 rounds).
- "10-minute timer", "countdown timer" -> `mode: "countdown"`, `work_minutes: 10` (decimals for seconds: 0.5 = 30 s).
- "45 seconds on, 15 off, 8 rounds" -> `mode: "interval"`, `work_minutes: 0.75`, `short_break_minutes: 0.25`, `rounds: 8`.
- Put what the user is working on in `label`. If they mention a start clock time, pass `start_time` plus `time_zone` when they name one (an IANA name, a city such as "Warsaw", or an abbreviation such as "EST").
Use `plan_focus_session` when the user describes a window to fill: "I have 3 hours to study until 5pm" -> `end_time: "17:00", available_minutes: 180`; "pomodoros from 9:00 to 12:30 with lunch at 12" -> `start_time`, `end_time`, and `breaks: [{"start":"12:00","end":"12:45","label":"Lunch"}]`. Pass `time_zone` and `date` when known. Leave `long_break_minutes` unset unless the user asks for a specific long break: the planner then shortens or drops the long break when that fits an extra focus block, and says so. Ask one short question if a lunch or meeting time is mentioned without a clock time.
After either tool returns, summarise in two or three lines (blocks, total focus minutes, end time, and any note about a shortened long break or a daylight-saving change), mention the live timer in the widget, and share the calendar link when present. Do not repeat every phase unless asked.
Do not use these tools for reminders about future appointments, questions about how long something takes (cooking, boiling an egg), unit conversions, the history of the Pomodoro Technique, or multi-day study schedules.
