Electronic Clam
Keeps your Mac awake for agents — without cooking it
What is Electronic Clam?
Your Mac keeps falling asleep mid-task while Claude Code, Codex is running. Caffeinate-style tools fix that - but they stay awake forever, risky when the laptop is closed in a bag (it drains, and a closed clamshell runs hot). Electronic Clam stays awake only while work is actually happening, then lets the Mac sleep. It keeps going lid-closed (IOKit, no sudo), with a real safety guard — a state-conditioned battery floor and a thermal cutoff — so no drain or cook. Free and open source. Menu bar
