🎯 4 goal types

Reviews — answer N cards (every answer counts)
Correct — get N right (Hard / Good / Easy; Again doesn't count)
Timer — stay focused N minutes (pauses while the settings window is open)
Finish deck — every card due today, including learning steps. All decks or search for one deck

🔒 The lock

Password — the only way to stop a session early
Blind lock — a random password you never see: only reaching your goal unlocks Anki
Strict mode, always on — Anki stays on top, takes focus back, can't be minimized, closed or switched to another profile
Crash-safe — if Anki or your PC restarts, the session resumes with its progress
