McAwake

Menu bar app that keeps a MacBook awake with the lid closed and monitors local servers

Desktopfree

McAwake is a macOS menu bar app that keeps a MacBook awake with the lid closed, without needing an external display, which caffeinate and Amphetamine cannot do. It lists and can watch the local servers and tunnels the Mac is hosting, alerting when one goes down and again when it recovers, and includes a low-battery guard.
