Super helpful, thanks for posting this.

If it's helpful to anyone, I edited the alias to instead run as a bash script so we can turn on/off focus mode easily, including turning it off when exiting the program early. I also added a time arg but it defaults to whatever you time you write in the script (25m and 5m below):

#!/bin/bash

# Function for work mode
work() {
    local duration=${1:-25m}  # Default to 5 minutes if no argument is provided
    macos-focus-mode enable
    timer "$duration"
    macos-focus-mode disable
    osascript -e 'display notification "☕" with title "Work Timer is up!" subtitle "Take a Break 😊" sound name "Crystal"'
}

# Function for rest mode
rest() {
    local duration=${1:-5m}  # Default to 10 minutes if no argument is provided
    timer "$duration"
    osascript -e 'display notification "☕" with title "Break is over" subtitle "Back to work, loser ䷑" sound name "Crystal"'
}

# Trap to disable focus mode when script exits
trap 'macos-focus-mode disable' EXIT

# Main script logic
case "$1" in
    work)
        work "$2"
        ;;
    rest)
        rest "$2"
        ;;
    *)
        echo "Usage: $0 {work|rest} [time]"
        exit 1
        ;;
esac

You don't need to install terminal-notifier if you don't want to. You can trigger notifications on osx with applescript

osascript -e 'display notification "☕" with title "Work Timer is up!" subtitle "Take a Break 😊" sound name "Crystal"'

but how would i combine this with the alias, cause then there are 3 layers of strings?

ok you would have to escape it like this: " -> so in the rc-file it would look like this:

alias work="timer 50m && osascript -e 'display notification \"☕\" with title \"Work Timer is up!\" subtitle \"Take a Break 😊\" sound name \"Crystal\"'"

i've been playing around and attempting to add a time input, but it doesnt recognize an argument. I've looked over my other alias and have no issues with adding an argument.

alias work="timer $1 && osascript -e 'display notification \"☕\" with title \"Work Timer is up!\" subtitle \"Take a Break 😊\" sound name \"Crystal\"' && say \"Phase complete\""

alias work='work_alias(){ timer "$1" && osascript -e "display notification \"☕\" with title \"Work Timer is up!\" subtitle \"Take a Break 😊\" sound name \"Crystal\"" && say "Phase complete"; unset -f work_alias; }; work_alias'

this works for me

open source! 💕

For anyone who wants the notification sound to play during "Do not disturb", try using afplay as the -ignoreDnD flag on terminal-notifier is broken.
For example:

alias work="timer 30m -n work! --format 24h && terminal-notifier -message 'Pomodoro'\
	-title 'break!'\
	&& afplay /System/Library/Sounds/Glass.aiff"

Okay, I have a plenty time to figure out how works in fish shell with kitty terminal. But in anyone want this, just copy and paste:

if status is-interactive
    alias job="pomodoro work"
    alias pause="pomodoro break"

    function pomodoro
        set -l session_type $argv[1]
        set -l work_icon ~/Imagens/niqaba.png # Altere para o caminho do ícone desejado

        # Se for uma sessão de trabalho, definir para 1 hora (3600 segundos)
        if test "$session_type" = work
            # 60 minutes duration_seconds is 3600
            notify-send -i $work_icon Pomodoro "🟢 Work session started! You have 60 minutes."
            timer 36
            # Se for uma pausa, definir para 15 minutos (900 segundos)
        else if test "$session_type" = break
            # 10 minutes duration_seconds is 900
            notify-send -i $work_icon Pomodoro "🟢 Break session started! You have 15 minutes."
            timer 9
        else
            echo "Invalid session type" >&2
            return 1
        end

        # Notificação de fim de sessão
        if test "$session_type" = work
            notify-send -i $work_icon Pomodoro "Work Timer is up! Take a Break 😊"
        else if test "$session_type" = break
            notify-send -i $work_icon Pomodoro "Break is over! Get back to work 😬"
        end
    end
end

I work in DnD mode too so I was running into the same issue! The way I fixed it so that it would both show the notification and play the sound is by going to System Preferences > Focus > Do Not Disturb > and then adding terminal-notifier to Allowed Apps. Now it works like a charm :)
