sorkila/lockpaw
Cover your Mac screen with a hotkey while AI agents keep running. Free, open source, 3.4 MB, Touch ID unlock.
Lockpaw helps Mac users instantly hide their screen content with a single hotkey, without putting their computer to sleep or stopping background tasks. It takes your active desktop with all running applications and replaces it with a simple, secure lock screen. This is for anyone who needs to step away from their Mac temporarily while keeping computationally intensive tasks like AI model training, code builds, or large downloads running.
Use this if you need to quickly step away from your Mac and want to obscure your screen from view, but without interrupting any ongoing processes that require your computer to remain active.
Not ideal if you require robust security against determined intruders, as this tool is for visual privacy, not preventing sophisticated access.
