Read the full description
Keeps your MacBook awake with the lid closed, even on battery, while Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI or Ollama work, then lets it sleep when they're done. Claude Code and Codex are tracked precisely via hooks (40+ other tools by process and GPU activity), including Claude's usage-limit waits so auto-continue survives the night. Approve permission prompts from a notification, a bunny by the notch, or your phone (Pro, end-to-end encrypted). Battery and heat protection built in.

Yes A macOS menu-bar app that keeps the Mac awake with the lid closed is standard Swift work using caffeinate/pmset and a privileged helper. Detecting agent activity through hooks and process or GPU checks is also within reach of a solo builder.
