CF Focus is a Chrome extension designed for competitive programmers who want to improve real problem-solving skills without instantly relying on AI tools.

The extension automatically blocks AI platforms such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and others whenever you open platforms like Codeforces and LeetCode

Key features include:
• Automatic AI blocking during practice
• Progressive Hint Unlock system based on effort and time spent
• Focus Sessions with optional Hardcore mode
• Daily streaks, statistics, and focus tracking
• Scheduled blocking and custom platform support
• PIN-protected settings for self-discipline

The idea behind the project is to encourage deeper thinking, longer focus, and stronger competitive programming skills.
