Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A free, open-source desktop app keeps a Mac, Windows PC, or Linux machine awake for timers, commands, apps, and AI-agent work.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-04 issue.

For: Mac, Windows, and Linux users running long tasks
Worth noticing: Each timer, command, app, or agent gets an independent session; one finishing does not cancel the others.

Field notes

The menu-bar cup shows a countdown and lists active timers or agent jobs with their own stop controls. Presets range from 15 minutes to four hours, with a bottomless option; custom minutes or an end time are also available. The page describes one-click connections for Claude Code and ChatGPT Codex, and gives separate installation paths for Mac, Windows, and Linux.
