Score: 5.8/10 (Innovation: 5, Technical: 5, Documentation: 7, Utility: 6)

NoSleepAgent is a macOS utility that prevents your Mac from sleeping while AI coding agents like Claude Code and Codex are actively working, using a daemon that monitors activity timestamps. It solves a practical pain point for developers who run long-running agent tasks and want to close their laptop lid without interrupting the work. The integration with popular AI coding tools and the simple, clean design make it immediately useful for a growing audience.

Target audience: backend devs, ai engineers, devops
