i have long wondered if autoclocking is possible in org.

you'd be working in emacs and not explicitly clock in or out.  no
logbook entries are automatically created.  if the current entry does
not have one, search upward for one.  if there is not one, then use a
generic one.  if you want to clock something then clock in and out
manually to create a logbook.

if emacs has no activity for N minutes, then clock out to N minutes ago.

if emacs starts activity, then clock in.

your activity shows in agenda, in an agenda clocktable, or in an
outline clocktable.

is this possible?  would it suit your needs?  i am incapable of coding
it, so this is just a brainstorm.

Yes.  In fact, I have something like this half-baked, only not withing
Org-mode/clocking, but in a custom format.  Each N seconds, Emacs
records the buffer name and mode we're in, also current X window class
and name, and the current idle time.  I didn't actually finish that,
though.

Extending/rewriting it to use clocking as you suggest shouldn't be too
difficult.

Best,
