Recommendations for developer productivity monitoring tools

Question

Hi HN, I'm seeking recommendations for productivity monitoring tools for developers. I'm looking for:* Something that can be installed on developer machines directly and optionally managed by Jamf MDM* Can automatically summarize daily activities (even approximately) in a way that can be cross-check against daily standup reports* Can accurately differentiate code-writing time, non-code-writing time, and idle time* Allow realtime check-in of the display (screenshots etc.)* Per-seat subscription model OKThanks!

Up until "non-code-writing time, and idle time", I was assuming you to be an engineering manager who is pursuing this idea out of either malice or ineptitude. But after "realtime check-in of the display", I am now convinced that you must be trolling.Not bad. If you're genuinely looking for this kind of&hellip; software product, I'd be interested which sort of company is being "enhanced" by your presence.

There's software that comes with the seat included, which is equipped with a mounted inflatable anal probe to tack and maximize butt-on-seat time. Lubricant is extra.The probe has an admin interface so you can administer reward/punishment remotely (probe expansion, vibration, etc).
