Hello! When I am deving on localhost, every time when I try to send a chat to the AI after I put my machine to sleep, it returns the following error:Error: Protocol error (Runtime.callFunctionOn): Session closed. Most likely the page has been closed. I am wondering if it is just how localhost works. Are there any solutions?

Hello, this is likely a problem caused by chromium (puppeteer) to save resources. I assume chromium does not run in the background when your computer is sleeping, atleast on Windows.

It is not an issue related to localhost, as your computer can still respond to local network requests (depending on your settings/OS of course), even if the pc is "shut down" (see Wake On Lan).

However, you might want to look out for extensions or startup arguments for chrome, but sadly I am not aware of any. Otherwise, do not put your computer to sleep or host it on a dedicated server.

But for that, it is not a solution related to the package itself, so I will close it. But feel free to re-open an issue if you have problems with the package.
