When Break started, I can quite the break by "Command + Q" Shortcut, if we can block the "Command + Q" shortcut in Strict Mode, we can forced to have a rest.

Possible solution

When break start, register a global shortcut: "Command + Q" with empty callback, and unregister it when break complete.

Alternative solutions

Block keyboard event?

I've tried to register the shortcut and it worked, but I am not sure about this, as it breaks the current behavior (of app other than Stretchly):

Let's say you run Signal and you do whatever in it. When break starts and you hit Cmd+Q, Stretchly is not closed but Signal (as Stretchly is not taking focus). One has to first click on break window to Quit Stretchly with Cmd+Q.

Other option would be to set Stretchly's app menu in a way that Cmd+Q is not doing anything across the app. But then, in let's say Preferences, one could not quit app via it.

How to block command+Tab shortcut? it make stretchly looks like a lock screen application.

I am not sure whether that's possible as it is OS-level shortcut.

According to my test, on my Mac, when the break starts, Stretchly preempts the Cmd+Q shortcut key, which is invalid in other applications.

        breakWinLocal.on('close', (e) => {
            if (settings.get('showBreaksAsRegularWindows')) {
                if (!appIsQuitting && !breakWinLocal.fullScreen) {
                    e.preventDefault()
                }
            }
        })
