What it does

Keeps your Mac awake while your agents are working — close the lid and the job keeps running. Once they are idle, normal sleep comes back. Claude Code / Codex hooks stamp a "last activity" time on every prompt and tool call. A root daemon checks it every 30s: git clone https://github.com/gergomiklos/nosleepagent.git cd nosleepagent ./install.sh Wires up the hooks for both Claude Code ( ~/.claude/settings.json ) and Codex ( ~/.codex/hooks.json ), backing up each first, installs the daemon, and adds a /nosleep command. Needs sudo (flipping disablesleep is root-only). Works on any Mac. Afterward: restart open Claude Code sessions; in Codex, run /hooks and trust the new hooks. Nothing — it just…from github.com

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!
