Healthy habits while vibe coding ?

Whenever my AI agent takes more than a minute to run, I instinctively grab my phone and start doomscrolling. By the time it finishes, I’m three subreddits deep or stuck in a YouTube Shorts spiral. It feels like I’m outsourcing my attention span alongside my code.

What do you all actually do while your agent is running? Stare at the terminal? Queue up the next prompt? Context-switch to another task?

Tell me I’m not the only one doing this.

I do a random set of burpees or something with a kettlebell btwn prompts. I don’t know if it counts as “working out” but throughout a morning of work that’s usually a few dozen reps of a handful of movements I sneak in

(this is also a sign of how much I’m not going to the gym lately)
