About Wakeful

Wakeful keeps your Google Colab sessions alive during long training runs. It uses the Screen Wake Lock API to prevent sleep, simulates activity every 30 seconds to beat Colab's inactivity timeout, and auto-clicks Reconnect if your session drops. Toggle it on from the popup while a Colab notebook is open — no setup, no accounts, no data collected.
