Slack Status Sync (/settings sync)
Connect Focus Fairy to your Slack status, and your status will update automatically every time you run /start, /pause, or /end.
Usage
/settings syncClick the Approve button in the response, pick your workspace, and grant permission. To disconnect, run /settings sync again and click the disconnect button.
Status mapping
Your status changes the same way whether you use commands, the Chrome extension, App Home, or the control panel buttons. Status text is shown in Korean.
| Command | Slack status | Cleared |
|---|---|---|
/start · /resume | 💻 집중 중 (Focusing) | When the state changes |
/pause | ☕ 잠깐 자리비움 (Quick break) | When the state changes |
/end | 💤 오늘 2시간 40분 집중 (Focused 2h 40m today) | 6 AM the next morning (KST) |
After /end, your status shows 💤 with the day’s focus time instead of being cleared. It clears itself the next morning, so 💤 means “done for today” and an empty status means “not started yet today”.
Sessions are recorded on the day they started. If you start at 11 PM and end at 1 AM, the session counts toward the previous day and the status says 어제 (yesterday). It still clears at 6 AM.
Your own status is kept
focus-fairy doesn’t overwrite a status you set yourself, such as ”📅 In a meeting” or ”🏠 Working from home”.
- If you had your own status when a session started, it’s saved and restored when the session ends (unless it has already expired, in which case 💤 is shown).
- If you change your status during a session, it’s left as is when you pause or end.
To do this, focus-fairy reads your current status before changing it (users.profile:read).
