+### Optional: keep the bridge computer awake
+
+The launcher’s **Settings → Keep computer awake** option prevents system sleep
+while the bridge is running. The same choice is available from the CLI:
+
+```bash
+# Foreground, for this run only
+npx thinkpool-pair@latest --keep-awake
+
+# Persist the choice and install the background service
+npx thinkpool-pair@latest install-service --keep-awake
+
+# Persistently turn it back off while reinstalling/updating the service
+npx thinkpool-pair@latest install-service --no-keep-awake
+```
+
+**Important:** keep-awake can substantially increase battery use. It prevents
+the computer from sleeping; it does **not** keep the display illuminated.
+Display dimming, screen locking, and display sleep continue normally. Closing a
+laptop lid may still put it to sleep depending on the operating system and its
+power settings. On some Linux systems the sleep inhibitor can also block an
+explicit suspend request while the bridge runs.
+
+The implementation is process-bound and releases automatically when the bridge
+stops: macOS uses `caffeinate -i`, Linux uses `systemd-inhibit --what=sleep`,
+and Windows uses a system-only power request without `ES_DISPLAY_REQUIRED`.
+If the platform helper is unavailable, the bridge warns and continues without
+keep-awake rather than failing startup.
