sorkila / lockpaw
Cover your Mac's screen with a hotkey while AI agents keep running, even with the lid closed. The covered screen glows when Claude Code, Codex or Gemini needs you. Touch ID unlock.
Why this job: works in the areas we cover, but does not say which job it does
What it does
- One hotkey. Lock and unlock with ⌘⇧L, or record your own.
- Touch ID unlock. Rest a finger on the sensor, nothing to click first. Password fallback like your Mac.
- Every screen covered. All displays, including ones you plug in while locked.
- Agents keep running. AI coding tools, builds, downloads and SSH sessions carry on underneath.
- Agent alerts. The locked screen glows when Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, Copilot or Aider needs you, and the notification says which agent and why.
