Background timer with task notifications for Claude Code.

Install

claude plugins install background-timer

Usage

/timer 60 check chain logs
/timer 30 verify tests passed
/timer 120 is the build done yet

First argument = seconds, rest = message. After the delay, a task notification arrives with the message.

How it works

Runs sleep N && echo message in background. Claude Code task notification delivers the message when it fires. No blocking, no polling.
