Added

  • Environment controllers (all optional in .corescope.yml under environment:, older files
    unchanged; see docs/ENVIRONMENT-CONTROLLER.md): each app of a
    project's own controller is listed with the modes it can come up in (modes, one at a time), the
    command that takes it down, containers to watch and its actions; mode commands do the whole
    operation while CoreScope only watches (no second Docker operation, no race with
    docker compose up -d, Stop runs only that app's down). Services checks follow the profiles,
    app or status component that need them (profiles:, app:, component:), so an app that is
    switched off raises no alert even when a proxy keeps its port open, with the new states
    starting, external and unknown (never up, never off). A status command's versioned JSON
    is read every 30 s with a short timeout and reconciled with what CoreScope started (selection
    changed in a terminal, CoreScope restarted, stale readings). One-off actions (setup, backup,
    restore) have their own timeout, log, artifact, cancel and, for restores, a preview the user
    confirms. MCP: environment_status, list_actions, run_action, cancel_action; each app mode
    is a profile project/app:mode for start_profile / stop_profile.

Changed

  • Profiles is grouped by project: each project's environment card shows a summary (apps
    selected, expected components ready, problems) and one folded row per app, with its state in a
    fixed column, a Start menu with its modes and Stop, and inside it the app's components and
    actions by kind (kind:, otherwise guessed from the names); profile cards fold their commands and containers while stopped, show
    the profile's own name with its state in a fixed column, and stopped profiles of a project fold
    into one line when there are more than three. Components whose state the controller could not
    read are summed up in one line and make the app unknown, not starting; when no container
    engine answers at all (Docker switched off) the environment simply shows as off, without errors
    or alerts. What is open is remembered.
  • Menu bar: every value has its own SF Symbol (cpu, memory chip, disk I/O arrows, network,
    thermometer, internal drive for the SSD, terminal for Codex, sparkle for Claude) next to it,
    also in the compact format, and the item's tooltip explains each one; the same icons are in
    Settings. Settings › Menu bar is a single list (on/off, what it shows, order) instead of the
    toggles followed by an unexplained copy of the same items.
  • Lower cost: environment status reads use /bin/sh with the login environment read once
    instead of an interactive login shell every 30 s, and slow to every 2 min with no window open;
    the floating panel is released when turned off and the menu bar window stops rendering while
    closed (both kept updating on every sample); freed memory is returned to macOS after the window
    closes and every 5 min while closed.

Fixed

  • An ejected volume leaves Storage at once instead of up to 30 s later.
  • Language: System followed the language last chosen in CoreScope instead of macOS's.

Commits since v0.9.0

  • feat: environment controllers, lighter Profiles and menu bar, lower cost (d1fcef8)
  • chore(release): 0.10.0 (960bf1a)
  • feat: environment apps with modes, menu bar icons, Docker off is not an error (117aa63)

Full diff: v0.9.0...v0.10.0

Install

  1. Download CoreScope-0.10.0-macos-universal.dmg below (universal: Apple Silicon and Intel, macOS 14+).
  2. Open the DMG and drag CoreScope to Applications.
  3. The app is open source and signed ad hoc, not notarized by Apple, so macOS blocks it the first time. Open it once, then go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway. Alternatively, in Terminal: 
    xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/CoreScope.app

The Intel slice is built and checked on every release but has not yet been run on an Intel Mac; reports are welcome.
