Health Reminder
Health Reminder runs independent standing and hydration timers while you work in VS Code. Each timer opens a focused reminder panel, waits three seconds before enabling confirmation, and restarts after the panel is handled.
What it does
- Reminds you to stand up every 60 minutes by default.
- Reminds you to drink water every 45 minutes by default.
- Keeps both timers independent.
- Queues reminders when both become due close together.
- Shows the remaining time in the status bar.
- Restarts timers immediately when reminder settings change.
The reminder panel uses VS Code theme colors and can be closed normally. Closing a panel also starts the next interval; the extension never overrides VS Code typing, save, navigation, or terminal commands.
