## Description

Commitment Timer stops mindless browsing before it starts.

<strong>How it works:</strong>
- Visit a blocked site (YouTube, Reddit, Twitter etc.) and you're intercepted
- Type <em>why</em> you're going there — vague reasons get rejected
- Pick a time limit (5, 10, 15, 30 min or custom)
- A floating timer appears while you browse
- When time's up, a guilt screen asks: did you keep your promise?
- Break your promise → site locked for 10 minutes ❄️

<strong>Features:</strong>
- 🔒 Intention screen with vague word detection
- ⏱️ Draggable floating countdown timer
- 😬 Accountability guilt screen
- 🔥 Streak tracking — consecutive days of kept promises
- ⏸️ Snooze tax — extensions get progressively harder
- ❄️ Cooldown penalty for broken promises
- 📊 Dashboard with honesty score and 30-day calendar
- 🔔 Desktop notifications — 1 min warning and time's up alert
- ⚙️ Add/remove any site from the blocked list
- 🔘 Enable/disable toggle anytime
