  I haven't used Caffeine but used the very similar app Amphetamine and found it worked great. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/amphetamine/id937984704?mt=12 https://apps.apple.com/us/app/amphetamine/id937984704?mt=12

  macOS has `caffeinate` built in as well. https://ss64.com/mac/caffeinate.html https://ss64.com/mac/caffeinate.html

  This will not show you as active. Teams and Slack and check the presence of HID events. If you have Xcode/swift installed you can script this instead: #!/usr/bin/swift import Foundation import AppKit let source = CGEventSource(stateID: CGEventSourceStateID.hidSystemState) CGEvent(keyboardEventSource: source, virtualKey: 0x37, keyDown: true)?.post(tap: .cghidEventTap) CGEvent(keyboardEventSource: source, virtualKey: 0x37, keyDown: false)?.post(tap: .cghidEventTap) This simulates one press/depress of the command key (0x37). The rest of the key codes can be found in Events.h in the location of your MacOS SDK library (deep in Xcode usually). Add it to a cron job or whatever.

    But that isn't the goal. Keeping the computer from going to lock screen is.

      This will also do that. It has the same effect as tapping a key repeatedly
