Time Tracking
How to measure where coding time actually goes: from git history, from the terminal, from whichever editor you work in, and from the hours that end up on an invoice. Each guide covers what the method measures, where it stops measuring, and what to do about the difference.
How to Track Coding Time From Git (and Why Git Alone Isn't Enough in 2026)
You can estimate coding time from Git commits, but git alone is a benchmark, not an accurate clock, especially with AI. Why telemetry is the accurate layer, and how to combine both.
The Real Cost of Context Switching for Developers (With Numbers)
It takes 23 minutes to refocus after an interruption. The real cost of context switching for developers, the yearly math, and how to see and protect your deep work.
Why Manual Timesheets Lie (and What Git-Based Tracking Shows Instead)
Developers overestimate productive time by up to 40%. Why memory-based timesheets are inaccurate, what it costs, and how git-based tracking gives you honest hours.
How to Measure Flow State Without Breaking It (2026)
Traditional productivity tracking destroys the flow state it tries to measure. How to measure deep work passively, from your real coding activity, without interrupting it.

The DevClocked Agent
Ask questions about your own data in plain language at /agent. It reads through 15 tools covering summaries, projects, time breakdowns, sessions, commits, clients, invoices, unbilled time, timesheet items, invoicing coverage, and workspace rollups. Eight more tools can propose actions, but nothing runs until you accept its confirm card. Ask it to close out the month and it walks the invoicing recipe one step per turn, from coverage check to invoice draft. Available on Pro.

Gemini CLI Agent Tracking
The Mac app now reads Gemini CLI sessions, so those agent turns land beside your Claude Code and Codex work instead of disappearing into plain terminal time. The daemon parses your local session files for the model, input, output and cached tokens, tool calls, and subagent nesting, then attributes each session to the right project. Message content never leaves your machine; only counts and metadata are sent. Requires Mac app v1.4.49 or later. Gemini models are not priced yet, so you will see token counts rather than cost.

Export Reports as PDF
Every report — Overview, Commits, and Issues — now has an Export PDF button that produces a clean, print-optimized document honouring your active filters and date range, ready to attach to an invoice or share with a client. Exports are generated locally in your browser; no data leaves your machine.

Figma Design Tracking
The Mac app now tracks time in the Figma desktop app as real design hours — automatically, with nothing to configure. Turn on optional file-name tracking to attribute design time to individual Figma files and auto-map it to projects by naming files "Project — File". Off by default, reading window titles of design apps only, behind an explicit macOS Accessibility grant you approve yourself.
