Recently I bought a usb-c empty external monitor card to prevent mac from going to sleep. There are many of these external monitor simulators on Amazon.
I still see the laptop go to sleep many times with the external monitor simulator.
This is the one I bought.

- bluedino 3mo agoCan't you just use a hot corner configured as "prevent sleep"?
- fragmede 3mo agoHow does it sleep when the agent is done working with the hot corner?
- doubled112 3mo agoHave the agent write an app that moves the cursor our of the hot corner and trigger it when done.
- kageroumado 3mo agoThe dummy display enables “clamshell mode,” which lets your MacBook stay awake even with the lid closed, provided that it’s also on AC power. If the MacBook is not connected to power, the clamshell mode isn’t activated and it will sleep normally. Adrafinil simply disables the global sleep without spoofing hardware, and re-enables it once the agent is done working, the temperature is too high, or the battery is low.
- chopete3 3mo agoMy requirement was to keep the laptop on with the lid closed. Sleep normally when idle but wake up when a nomachine request comes in. I will see how this app fits into my specific need. I have to check this on Mac Sequoia 15.7
- kageroumado 3mo agoThe app is built for 26+, as I never tested it on earlier versions. It won’t solve your specific case, though, as it only prevents sleep. It won’t wake it once it’s already sleeping.
