FAQ
Questions RescueTime owners ask.
- 01
Can I start a Focus Session directly from the chat?
Yes! Use the start_focus_time capability and specify the duration in minutes. Your agent will trigger the session to block distracting websites and apps immediately.
- 02
How do I see my top productivity categories for yesterday?
You can ask the agent to run get_analytic_data with restrict_kind set to 'category' and the dates set to yesterday. It will return a ranked list of where your time went.
- 03
Is it possible to log achievements or daily wins?
Absolutely. Use the post_highlight capability to record a description of what you accomplished. You can later retrieve these using get_highlights_feed.
