Noctis keeps your Mac awake while the lid is closed, so Cursor agents, terminal jobs, builds, local servers, and model runs don’t get interrupted. No clamshell setup, no external display, no babysitting long-running tasks — just start a session and close your MacBook.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Noctis because I kept running into the same annoying problem: I’d start a Cursor agent, terminal command, build, local server, or model job… then close my MacBook and come back to a stopped loop 😅
Noctis keeps your Mac awake even when the lid is closed, so your long-running work can continue without needing a full clamshell setup, external monitor, or weird terminal hacks.
What it helps with:
🧠 Cursor and coding agents
🛠️ Terminal jobs and scripts
📦 Builds and installs
🌐 Local servers
🤖 Model jobs and long-running tasks
💻 Closed-lid MacBook workflows
You can start a session from the menu bar, choose the duration, control sleep behavior, and keep things running while your Mac is closed.
I wanted it to feel small, focused, and native — the kind of utility you install once and forget about until it quietly saves your workflow.
Would love your feedback, especially from people running agents, dev tools, or local workloads on Mac 🙏
