Wick● Open source · macOSKeeps your Mac awake while your AI agents work
An open-source macOS menu bar app: it keeps your Mac awake while Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor and other agents work, and lets it sleep when they finish or wait for you.
What it is
Wick is a macOS menu bar app that keeps your Mac awake while your AI agents work and lets it sleep when they finish or wait for your reply. A long task no longer stops because the Mac went to sleep.
Which agents it works with
With Claude Code it connects through hooks, so it knows exactly when each task starts and ends. With Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor Agent, OpenCode, Aider, Amp or Goose it watches the process. It also has a manual mode and can keep the Mac awake with the lid closed, only while an agent is working.
How it's built
It's native Swift, about 3 MB, for macOS 13 or later. The mascot is a clay candle modelled in Blender with three animated states: working, waiting and resting. It's open source under the MIT licence and builds on Jon Kraayen's Caffeinator.
