Grok Bot thinks my computer is offline or sleeping but it is not

Adding another data point, same issue on Grok Bot 0.68.1 on a Mac mini that runs as an always-on agent box. Even with every workaround applied, it still drops:

  • System sleep, display sleep, disk sleep and standby are all off (pmset -g shows 0).
  • It’s on wired Ethernet, so Wi-Fi isn’t the cause.
  • A LaunchAgent runs caffeinate -u every 4 minutes, so macOS always sees an active user.
  • The Grok Bot window stays in front, and only the monitor’s power is off.

pmset -g log shows no sleep, wake or display events between 2:28 and 4:24 PM CT. The Mac was fully awake the whole time, yet Grok Bot showed it offline by 3:16 and didn’t come back until I touched the Mac again. Caffeinate stretched the time before it dropped from about 10 minutes to about 30, but it didn’t stop it.

So this doesn’t seem to be about macOS idle or sleep. The app’s connection itself stops recovering. Same impact as @J_S: I run a fleet of bots that drive coding sessions on that Mac, and every drop stalls everything until I’m physically back home. A version that reconnects on its own would be huge.
