# Verification Modes

> Just Show Up vs Stay Throughout — two enforcement paradigms.

# Verification Modes

CommitT offers two distinct verification paradigms that control how the system confirms you've honored your commitment. The mode is configured on the **FinalScreen** under the "Commitment Type" settings section.

***

## Just Show Up

The simplest verification model. The user only needs to verify their presence **once** during a configurable **grace window** at the start of their commitment slot.

**How it works:**

1. Your slot starts at 6:00 AM
2. A grace window of 10 minutes opens (configurable: 5 / 10 / 15 / 30 min)
3. You tap "Verify" within the window
4. If location is attached, GPS is checked once at that moment
5. ✅ Verified — you're done for this slot

**Best for:** Quick check-ins like gym arrivals, class attendance, or meeting punctuality.

***

## Stay Throughout

The strictest verification model. The system generates **random, unpredictable check-in alarms** throughout the entire duration of your commitment slot. You must respond to each alarm within a strict time window.

**How it works:**

1. Your slot runs from 6:00 AM – 8:00 AM
2. Random alarms fire at unpredictable intervals during those 2 hours
3. Each alarm gives you a **5-minute response window**
4. If location is attached, GPS is checked at each alarm
5. Configurable **intensity** controls how many alarms fire
6. Configurable **Max Missed** threshold (e.g., miss 3 out of 10 = pass, miss 4+ = penalty)

**Best for:** Extended sessions like library study blocks, deep work, or any commitment requiring sustained presence.
