Good to know

A few useful
details.

Can my screen still sleep?

Yes. Agent Energy prevents system sleep during an active session while allowing the display to sleep. Your screen-lock settings stay in place.

What does “Closed lid enabled” mean?

It means the companion is available for closed-lid support. It does not mean a session is running. Look for ENERGIZED to confirm an active session.

What changes during a closed-lid session?

The companion prevents all system sleep, including Sleep from the Apple menu. Return to Standby or quit Agent Energy to restore the previous setting. Keep your Mac ventilated and end the session before putting it in a bag.

Does Agent Energy collect my activity?

No accounts, analytics, advertising, or app activity uploads. The optional helper keeps a local recovery record so it can restore the prior sleep setting. Read the privacy policy.
