Features
Daily Check-ins with Streaks
Mark habits done each day. habctl tracks your current streak and longest streak automatically. Miss a day and the streak resets — simple accountability.
AI Weekly Coaching Review (Bundle)
habctl review pulls 7 and 30-day completion data and has Claude (or GPT, Gemini, Ollama) write a coaching briefing — what's sticking, what's slipping, what to focus on next. Unlocks with the missionctl Bundle.
Habit Chains & Streak Alerts
Link habits into chains so finishing one nudges the next. streak_at_risk flags active streaks you haven't checked in today, before you lose them.
MCP Server for AI Access
12 MCP tools let Claude check streaks, log or undo check-ins, run weekly reviews, and suggest new habits — enabling fully automated coaching and digests.
