# grindxp stop

> Stop the running timer and optionally complete the quest.

```bash theme={null}
grindxp stop
```

Reads the active timer from `~/.grind/timer.json`, calculates elapsed time, and prompts:

1. **Complete the quest?** Yes logs a `duration` proof and awards XP. No just clears the timer.
2. If completing, optionally adds a note to the completion log.

## XP Awarded

The elapsed duration is recorded as a `duration` proof (1.1x multiplier). If the Forge also detected git activity or a running process during the session, the proof may be upgraded to `multi-proof` (1.5x).
