Questions Before You Install?

What does Coffeetosh actually do?
Coffeetosh keeps your Mac awake when you need it, including lid-closed workflows, while still giving you explicit session control through the menu bar app and the CLI.
Does it need root access or unsafe hacks?
No. The project is built to work as a normal macOS app and command-line tool without asking you to disable system protections or run invasive background hacks.
Can I use it from Terminal only?
Yes. Coffeetosh includes CLI commands for starting sessions, checking status, saving presets, and stopping wake locks without opening the GUI.
Is it free and open source?
Yes. Coffeetosh is free to use, open source, and MIT licensed. You can install the app directly or inspect the code on GitHub.
