A tiny CLI that keeps your apps awake. Works with **Glitch, Replit, Cyclic, Supabase, Render**, and local servers. Perfect for dev, demos, or side projects.

## Features

- **Ping-based Keep-Alive**  
  Automatically sends pings to your deployed project’s URL to prevent it from going idle or sleeping.

- **Local Dev Stabilizer**  
  Keeps a background Node.js process alive to prevent your local development environment from freezing or shutting down when your system sleeps.

## Installation

```
npm install -g @0xDaniiel/keepawake
```

**Or use locally with npx:**
npx @0xDaniiel/keepawake https://your-app.com

## Usage

**Ping a Live Project**
Use this to keep online platforms like Replit, Glitch, or Cyclic from timing out

```
keepawake  https://your-live-app.com
```

This sends a heartbeat to your URL every 5 minutes.

## Keep a Local Process Awake

Use this during development to prevent your terminal from shutting down after inactivity.

```
keepawake local
```

This logs a heartbeat message every minute and keeps the session alive.
