# Teams Status Keeper
|
|
|
|
Keeps Microsoft Teams (or any presence-tracking app) from marking you as "Away"
|
|
by nudging the mouse cursor when the machine has been idle long enough to
|
|
trigger an idle timeout.
|
|
|
|
Real user movement always wins: the script never fires while the user is
|
|
actively using the mouse, and any synthetic sweep aborts the moment the
|
|
cursor leaves the position the script just commanded.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
- [Bun](https://bun.sh) >= 1.0.0
|
|
- macOS, Linux, or Windows (relies on
|
|
[`@nut-tree-fork/nut-js`](https://github.com/nut-tree-fork/nut.js) for
|
|
cross-platform mouse + screen control)
|
|
- On macOS: Accessibility permission for the terminal running Bun
|
|
(System Settings > Privacy & Security > Accessibility)
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
./install.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The installer verifies `bun` is on `PATH` and runs `bun install`. It does
|
|
not auto-install Bun; if Bun is missing it prints a hard error pointing at
|
|
<https://bun.sh>.
|
|
|
|
## Run
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
bun run start
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or directly:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
bun run src/move.ts
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or install it as a global `move` command via Bun's bin-linking:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
bun link
|
|
move
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`bun link` registers the `bin.move` entry from `package.json` (`./src/move.ts`,
|
|
which carries `#!/usr/bin/env bun`) as an executable on your `PATH`.
|
|
|
|
Stop with `Ctrl+C`. If `SIGINT` arrives mid-sweep, the cursor stays at
|
|
whichever step was last commanded — by design.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
Usage: move [options]
|
|
|
|
Options:
|
|
-h, --help Show this help and exit.
|
|
-v, --version Print version and exit.
|
|
-m, --move-interval <seconds> Idle time before a sweep fires. Default: 240.
|
|
-c, --check-interval <seconds> Cursor poll cadence. Default: 10.
|
|
-d, --step-delay <ms> Pause between synthetic steps. Default: 50.
|
|
-n, --step-count <pixels> Steps per sweep. Default: 250.
|
|
-V, --verbose Log every sweep, interrupt, and bounds event
|
|
(default prints only the startup banner).
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Run `bun run src/move.ts --help` for the full text.
|
|
|
|
All flags are wired. Numeric overrides are layered onto the defaults via
|
|
`resolveConfig` in `src/config.ts`; time-valued inputs (`-m`, `-c`) are
|
|
expressed in seconds at the CLI boundary and converted to milliseconds
|
|
internally.
|
|
|
|
Logging is **quiet by default**: only the startup banner ("Teams Status
|
|
Keeper started…") and any error from an unhandled rejection print on a
|
|
default run. `-V` / `--verbose` opens up per-sweep, user-interrupt, and
|
|
out-of-bounds events.
|
|
|
|
Invalid input (unknown flag, missing value, non-positive number) prints an
|
|
error to `stderr` and exits with code `2`.
|
|
|
|
## How it works
|
|
|
|
The source lives under `src/`, split into an entry point plus three logic
|
|
modules:
|
|
|
|
- `src/move.ts` is a thin entry point: parses args, dispatches `--help` /
|
|
`--version`, resolves the runtime config, and calls
|
|
`runKeeper(config, verbose)`.
|
|
- `src/cli.ts` owns argument parsing, validation, and help/version output.
|
|
- `src/config.ts` exports the `Config` type, `DEFAULT_CONFIG`, and the
|
|
`resolveConfig` overlay function.
|
|
- `src/keeper.ts` owns the synthetic-activity sweep and the idle-watch loop.
|
|
|
|
Defaults live in `src/config.ts` as `DEFAULT_CONFIG`:
|
|
|
|
| Field | Default | CLI flag | Purpose |
|
|
| --------------- | ------------ | ------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `moveInterval` | `4 * 60_000` | `-m`, `--move-interval` | Idle time (ms) required before a synthetic sweep fires. |
|
|
| `checkInterval` | `10_000` | `-c`, `--check-interval` | How often (ms) the main loop polls the cursor for real activity. |
|
|
| `stepDelay` | `50` | `-d`, `--step-delay` | Pause (ms) between individual synthetic steps in a sweep. |
|
|
| `stepCount` | `250` | `-n`, `--step-count` | Pixel-steps per sweep. |
|
|
|
|
`-m` and `-c` are accepted in seconds at the CLI; `resolveConfig` converts
|
|
to milliseconds before handing the resolved `Config` to `runKeeper`.
|
|
|
|
### Main loop (`runKeeper`)
|
|
|
|
1. Print the startup banner (unconditional).
|
|
2. Snapshot `lastPos` and `lastActivity = now`.
|
|
3. Every `config.checkInterval`:
|
|
- If the cursor moved since the last check, the user is active — reset
|
|
`lastActivity` and `lastPos`, continue.
|
|
- Otherwise, if `now - lastActivity >= config.moveInterval`, call
|
|
`simulateActivity` and reset the idleness clock.
|
|
|
|
### Synthetic sweep (`simulateActivity`)
|
|
|
|
1. Read the starting position and current screen dimensions.
|
|
2. Pick a horizontal direction (`dx = +1` if there's room to the right,
|
|
else `-1`) so the sweep stays on-screen. Vertical is `dy = 0` for now.
|
|
3. For each of `config.stepCount` steps:
|
|
- Compute and bounds-check the next target.
|
|
- Move the cursor there, sleep `config.stepDelay`.
|
|
- Re-read the cursor. If it isn't where we put it, the user moved it —
|
|
log (when `--verbose`) and return early without snapping back.
|
|
4. On a clean full sweep, restore the cursor to its starting position so
|
|
the next idle-check sees "no movement" and doesn't misread the synthetic
|
|
activity as real user input.
|
|
|
|
### Why `mouse.config.autoDelayMs = 0`
|
|
|
|
nut.js inserts a 100ms delay after every action by default. With two mouse
|
|
calls per step that would silently more-than-double the duration of a
|
|
sweep. The script controls cadence itself via `config.stepDelay`, so the
|
|
implicit delay is disabled at module load (a side effect of importing
|
|
`keeper.ts`).
