A macOS menu-bar app that scores your "Brain Fry Index" from AI coding sessions and force-locks your keyboard for meditation breaks.
If you have ever looked up from Claude Code to realize four hours have passed — dry eyes, aching shoulders, no memory of what you were building — you have met Brain Fry. AI removed the natural pauses from coding: no waiting for builds, no staring at the ceiling. Just prompt, judge, prompt, judge, at machine speed. Brain Bed is a macOS menu-bar app built for exactly that moment: it reads your local CLI session files (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex CLI — no cloud, no API keys, nothing leaves your machine) and computes a real-time Brain Fry Index from 0 to 100. The index is not a gimmick. It weights five signals: message velocity (prompts per minute, 55%), context switching between projects, concurrent active sessions, token throughput, and late-night work. Stages run Calm → Warming → Heating → Brain Fry. When things heat up, exponential-backoff alerts warn you that your judgment is degrading — before you approve the diff you didn't read. And when the index spikes, Brain Bed takes the choice away: it locks your keyboard and takes over your screen with a breathing circle, classical music, and a deck of real-world activity cards — walk, stretch, tea, tidy your desk. The author tried timers and Pomodoro first and cheated at all of them, so the app is deliberately un-cheatable, with only a hold-to-exit emergency button. The build story is pure vibe coding: the author shipped it in one session with Claude Code (Electron + React + Three.js + Web Audio + SQLite), code-signed and notarized by Apple, distributed free as an open-source DMG from GitHub Releases. It is also a sharp commentary on our moment — the same tools that fry your brain are the ones you used to build the cure. Note: This project is curated by the VibeFix editors from public sources.
