… on it On the lab the paired laptop idled to sleep at 08:41 with two tasks mid-run; Autopilot and both runs sat still until 20:00. While the runner has a CLI run or a preview in flight it now resets the system idle timer every 30 s (SetThreadExecutionState, non-continuous — never holds the display, never blocks a sleep the person asks for, and stops as soon as the work ends). Windows only; REMOTE_AGENT_KEEP_AWAKE=off opts out. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_018WAdQ7Rm24xss5QDSvXtJB

Summary
The lab's paired laptop idled to sleep at 08:41 with two tasks mid-run; everything (lab, runner, Autopilot) paused until 20:00 — 11 hours of nothing. While the runner has work in flight (a CLI run in either lane, or a Try-the-app preview) it now resets the Windows idle timer every 30 s (
SetThreadExecutionState(ES_SYSTEM_REQUIRED), non-continuous). It never keeps the display on, never blocks a sleep the person asks for (lid / Start › Sleep), and stops as soon as the work ends.REMOTE_AGENT_KEEP_AWAKE=offopts out. README notes it.Test plan
KeepAwakeTests: opt-out parsing; holds count work in flight and release exactly once.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
