Stays awake while your agents work.

Belay keeps your Mac awake while a coding agent is working. When the work stops, Belay gets out of the way and your Mac can sleep normally again.

Built-in detection for Claude Code, plus presets for Codex CLI, Gemini CLI and Cline. You can also point Belay at a folder for anything else. Detection stays on your Mac. No account. No telemetry. Belay never sends your prompts or code anywhere.

Free and open source. Release notes

Helping out

Belay is free and always will be. If it saved you a run, a star on GitHub costs nothing and helps other people find it. Bug reports and translations are worth more than money.
