34/100Every hour a Claude Code or Codex session stalls waiting on a permission prompt or a sleeping Mac is an hour an agency developer is not shipping client work. BlackFlare's $8 Premium tier keeps the machine awake, routes completion and input-needed alerts to desktop, Telegram, or Slack, and covers up to 3 Macs, so a small delivery team can supervise several long runs without babysitting a terminal. The strategic stake is throughput per developer, not software cost: the app is a one-time $8 purchase against retainer hours that bill far higher.
