First public build of PoolTerminal - a read-only operational dashboard for Cardano stake pool operators.

This is a beta. I need your help testing it.

PoolTerminal runs every day against a live block producer, but it is early software and I do not expect it to be working 100% yet. There will be bugs and rough edges, and it has only really been exercised on one operator's setup - mine.

That's where you come in. Every pool is different: distro, node layout, db-sync setup, pool size. If you're an SPO, the most useful thing you can do is run it, try to break it, and tell me what went wrong.

Report a bug - include what you were doing, your setup, and any error text. Rough reports are fine.

It is read-only - it cannot sign, spend, or change anything on your node - so the worst a bug can do is show you something wrong or fail to load. Your pool is never at risk from it.

Install (Linux)

AppImage - recommended, any distro, no install:

chmod +x PoolTerminal_0.1.0_amd64.AppImage
./PoolTerminal_0.1.0_amd64.AppImage

If it won't start, install FUSE (sudo apt install libfuse2) or run it with --appimage-extract-and-run.

.deb - Debian / Ubuntu:

sudo dpkg -i PoolTerminal_0.1.0_amd64.deb

What you get

Live DASHBOARD (chain pulse, KES with op-cert health, mempool flow, block propagation, upcoming leader slots, live chain metadata feed), full per-epoch HISTORY with reward splits, a DELEGATORS table with loyalty ranking and deep-dives, live delegation NOTIFICATIONS, NODE HEALTH, a peer MAP, and isolated RELAY 1 / RELAY 2 dashboards.

Needs only your node plus an internet connection. Optional db-sync and Blockfrost sources unlock more.

Not ready to connect? Demo mode lets you explore the whole interface with no node.

Known rough edges

  • The setup wizard is still being refined.
  • On first connect, the leadership-schedule query can take up to two minutes on a block producer. That's the node, not the app - it's signposted in the UI.

Apache 2.0. Audit it before you trust it - that's the whole point.

Windows and macOS builds are planned (unsigned).
