Vibez is a focus app for developers who vibe code with AI agents. When your coding agent is working, you can take a break, check your apps, or scroll without constantly wondering if it is done yet. When the agent finishes or needs your input, Vibez blocks your distracting apps so you come back to the code. No more losing 30 minutes after a “quick” check. No more forgetting your agent was waiting. No more breaking your flow because you had to babysit the terminal. Vibez connects with plugins for Claude Code and Codex, then uses Apple Screen Time controls to shield distracting apps at the exact moment your attention is needed again. Use Vibez to: • Scroll while your AI coding agent works • Get pulled back when it needs review, approval, or input • Block distracting apps when the task is ready • Stay in the loop without staring at your terminal • Turn AI coding downtime into controlled break time Built for developers, vibe coders, and anyone using coding agents as part of their workflow. Let the agent cook. Vibez will bring you back.
