ScrumChrono 0.1.6, published by pedrojreis, is a lightweight terminal-user-interface tool designed to keep daily Scrum ceremonies on schedule. Built for development teams who prefer keyboard-driven workflows, the application presents a minimalist dashboard that counts down the typical fifteen-minute time-box while highlighting whose turn is next to speak. Because it runs inside any POSIX-compatible shell, ScrumChrono can be launched instantly from an IDE terminal, SSH session, or CI runner without breaking the flow of pair programming or code reviews. Three successive versions—0.1.4, 0.1.5, and the current 0.1.6—have refined cursors, color themes, and signal handling so that remote participants on low-bandwidth connections still receive clear visual cues. Product owners use it to enforce disciplined stand-ups in open-space offices, whereas distributed squads screen-share the TUI in video calls to reduce “overtime” chatter and keep Jira or Azure boards untouched during the meeting. Coaches running scaled Scrum also appreciate the unobtrusive log file that records actual start, stop, and individual speaking durations, generating empirical data for retrospectives without additional note-taking. The program ships as a single statically linked binary for Windows, macOS, and Linux, making it a portable addition to any Agile project-management toolkit. ScrumChrono is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources (e.g. winget), always delivering the latest version, and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
