You start a long Claude Code run, close the lid, put the Mac in your bag, and the work stops. Most keep-awake apps only stop idle sleep, and the ones that handle a closed lid don't know when your agents are done.

So I built one that does both. It lives in the menu bar as a small mug: empty when it's off, full when it's keeping your Mac awake.

What it does

  • Stays awake while Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor Agent and others are working, and lets go a few minutes after they stop.
  • Keeps going with the lid closed, on battery too. When the work is done, it puts the Mac to sleep.
  • Looks after the Mac in your bag: stops when it gets warm, turns the display off and switches on Low Power Mode.
  • Or just the simple thing: pour 15 minutes, 2 hours, or until you turn it off.
