Automatic, verified time tracking for VS Code & Cursor. Just code — TaskTrace records how long you work and on which project, and shows today's time and earnings right in your status bar. Everything syncs to your TaskTrace dashboard.
Why TaskTrace
Zero effort. No timer to start or stop — open your editor and code, and tracking begins on its own.
Time & earnings in your status bar — e.g. 1 hr 50 mins • $27.50, with a per‑project breakdown on hover. Click it to open your dashboard.
Smart project detection. Each project is recognized automatically — even when one folder holds several apps, each is tracked on its own.
بصمة إنسان (Proof of Human). TaskTrace tells the code you typed by hand from bulk or AI‑generated insertions, so your dashboard reflects how much of the work is genuinely yours.
Private by design. Your source code never leaves your machine — only relative file paths are sent. Your API key lives in your OS keychain, and HTTPS is enforced.
Reliable. Activity is queued locally and survives editor restarts, so nothing is lost when you're offline.
Getting started
Install TaskTrace from the Marketplace.
Create an API key in your TaskTrace dashboard (الإعدادات ← مفاتيح API).
In your editor, open the command palette (Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+P) and run TaskTrace: Set API Key, then paste your key.
Start coding. Your status bar shows today's time within a minute.
Private by design
Only file paths relative to your project are sent — never your code, never absolute paths.
Your API key is kept in the OS keychain, never in a settings file.
Secret files (.env, private keys) and dependency folders are never tracked.
