Crowsnest 0.12.0

Syspeek is now Crowsnest. Same product, same 33-view console, same local-only
collection — a name that says what it is: the lookout above the fleet.

What changed

  • The binary, packages, config path, systemd/LaunchAgent/MSI entries, focus
    bridges, docs, site and the relay dashboard all say Crowsnest.
  • Repositories: codeafridi/Crowsnest and codeafridi/crowsnest-relay
    (old URLs redirect).

Upgrading is not a reinstall

  • On first start the new config file is seeded from ~/.config/syspeek
    (or Syspeek), and SYSPEEK_CONFIG is still read.
  • The stable machine id and the offline spool are copied from the old cache
    directory first, so the relay does not see a brand-new machine.
  • Installers remove the old systemd unit, XDG autostart, LaunchAgent, HKCU Run
    value, shims and GNOME/KWin focus bridges before installing the new ones.
  • Packages declare Conflicts/Replaces/Obsoletes on syspeek; the MSI keeps
    the existing UpgradeCode; the Homebrew cask conflicts with the old cask.

Deliberately breaking

  • Prometheus metrics are crowsnest_* (were syspeek_*).
  • The --record JSON envelope key is "crowsnest".
  • Webhook payload source/receiver labels name crowsnest.
  • Relay sessions use __Host-crowsnest; existing logins sign in again.

The ingest token hash, session hash and channel-secret HKDF domains keep their
historical values on purpose — those strings are stored data, not branding, and
renaming them would invalidate every token, session and sealed secret.

Proof

CI green on Ubuntu 24.04, macOS 15 and Windows, plus both clean-room Debian
container jobs (22.04/24.04 install + --dump + --probe). The portable bundle
and AppImage in this release were built locally and each ran --dump and
--probe before upload.

Not run on real hardware: a real Mac battery, NVIDIA silicon, a real X11
desktop with click-through, a real cloud account.
