💡 Use Cases

1. AI Productivity

from aw_client import ActivityWatchClient
from datetime import datetime

client = ActivityWatchClient()
today = datetime.now().replace(hour=0, minute=0, second=0)

claude_events = client.get_events(f"aw-watcher-claude_{client.client_hostname}", start=today)
claude_hours = sum(e["duration"].total_seconds() for e in claude_events) / 3600
files_with_claude = sum(e["data"].get("files_modified", 0) for e in claude_events)

files_per_hour = files_with_claude / max(claude_hours, 0.1)
print(f"With Claude: {files_per_hour:.1f} files/hour")

2. Account Tracking

from aw_client import ActivityWatchClient
from datetime import datetime

client = ActivityWatchClient()
today = datetime.now().replace(hour=0, minute=0, second=0)

profile_events = client.get_events(f"aw-watcher-chrome-profiles_{client.client_hostname}", start=today)

week_ago = datetime.now() - timedelta(days=7)

events = client.get_events(f"aw-watcher-claude-tools_{client.client_hostname}", start=week_ago)
tools = defaultdict(int)
for e in events:
    for tool, count in e["data"].get("tools_used", {}).items():
        tools[tool] += count

for tool, count in sorted(tools.items(), key=lambda x: x[1], reverse=True):
    print(f"  {tool}: {count} times")
