The pause knows you before the moment arrives. When it arrives, it interrupts, on your phone, the web, or Telegram, right where the impulse already reaches you. After, it asks whether it passed, and the dashboard keeps the record.
Onboarding takes seven steps and gives the pause enough to recognize you. It's not a profile to perform against. It's the version of yourself the pause reads back when the impulse fires, so the pushback knows exactly what to push back on.

You reach for Lucid the moment the pull hits. It asks what's pulling at you and answers with a message written for that exact loop, in the tone you picked. Long enough for your real self to come back into the room. Short enough to read at the moment of impulse.

The dashboard tracks every catch, whether you finished the cooldown, and whether the impulse passed. Not as a streak counter — as evidence. Patterns surface that you couldn't see from the inside: that Tuesday nights are your hardest stretch, that some weeks hold more than others, that the loop is winnable.
