How it works
- 1
Run it from the menubar
Before the presentation, or the long render.
- 2
Sleep is held off
Your Mac stays up and the screen stays on.
- 3
You are told
A notification confirms the hold, so you are never guessing whether it took.

Never miss a meeting because a notification slid past. A minute before a calendar event starts, a full-screen card shows the title and time, with a button that opens the meeting link if the event has one. Setup: allow Calendar access. Runs a small built-in script to find the next meeting.
Press a shortcut, type a few letters, and open any app without touching the mouse. Lists every app in your Applications folders with its icon. Setup: record your own shortcut and allow Accessibility.
