The Rocket agent automatically sleeps after a period of inactivity in a task. When this happens, a message appears in the chat and task features pause until you resume. No data is lost.

​
What pauses during sleep

When the agent is sleeping, you will see this message in the chat:
The agent is sleeping due to inactivity
Agent sleeping message in Rocket chatAgent sleeping message in Rocket chat
The following are paused while the agent sleeps:
  • Chat input
  • Code generation and editing
  • Visual design editing
  • Live preview
  • Launching your app
  • GitHub push and pull
  • Background processing

​
Wake up the agent

Click Wake Up Agent in the chat. The agent resumes immediately and all task features become available again: chat, live preview, and any other active functionality.
Waking the agent does not affect your task history, files, or outputs. Everything is preserved exactly as it was.

​
Why this happens

The agent sleeps automatically to manage server resources. This can happen mid-task if you step away for a while. It applies to both Solve and Build tasks. Agent sleep is a session state, not a save state. Your task, messages, and generated content are all intact when you return.
