minidash 0.6.2

minidash 0.6.2, a realtime dashboard for an Apple Silicon Mac.

Install: docs/deploy.md

Fixed

• HTTPS over Tailscale took the dashboard down. deploy/tailscale-https.sh on served the agent on HTTPS 8787, which takes port 8787 from the agent; after its restart the agent could not bind and kept restarting. The stream is now served on the page's own origin at /ws on 443 (wss://<host>/ws), nothing is served on 8787, and on removes a serve on 8787 left by an older version (ADR 0016). Plain HTTP on the LAN is unchanged.

Pull requests

• #31 fix(deploy): serve the HTTPS stream at /ws on 443, not on the agent port (hotfix/0.6.2)

minidash 0.6.1

minidash 0.6.1, a realtime dashboard for an Apple Silicon Mac.

Install: docs/deploy.md

Fixed

• CPU card: in a tall card (for example beside a taller GPU card) the chart kept a fixed height and left an empty band under it. Beside the reactor the chart now grows to the row's height.
• CPU reactor: at low load the hexagon outlines were so faint that the fill in a cell's pointed base looked like it spilled between rows. Outlines now stay clearly visible when idle.

Pull requests

• #29 fix(web): grow the CPU chart to the row and keep idle outlines visible (hotfix/0.6.1)

minidash 0.6.0

minidash 0.6.0, a realtime dashboard for an Apple Silicon Mac.

Spec: spec/0.6.0 · Install: docs/deploy.md

Added

• GPU per process: the process table has a sortable, hideable GPU column: each process's share of GPU time over the last interval, read without root from the IORegistry (AGXDeviceUserClient accumulatedGPUTime, ADR 0015). New processes show "–" until a second sample; the list also includes the top processes by GPU. System services such as runningboardd and WindowServer can carry GPU time on an app's behalf; the card notes this. If the GPU read fails, the table stays and says why. Setting: MINIDASH_PROC_GPU_INTERVAL_MS (0 turns it off).

Changed

• CPU card is laid out like the README illustration: on a wide card the total and chart sit left and the per-core reactor right; narrow cards stack the reactor under the chart. The core count moved to the card header; the load average sits under the total.
• Illustrations updated for the new CPU card.

Pull requests

• #24 docs(spec): add spec 0.6.0 for the CPU layout and GPU per process
• #25 feat(web): lay out the CPU card side by side on a wide card
• #26 feat: show per-process GPU % in the process table
• #23 chore: align Claude guards with Git Flow, fix stale link and flaky test
• #27 chore(release): 0.6.0

minidash 0.5.2

minidash 0.5.2, a realtime dashboard for an Apple Silicon Mac.

Install: docs/deploy.md

Fixed

• CPU reactor: a cell's fill leaked outside its hexagon as bands between rows. The hexagon clip was applied to the scaled fill itself and was squashed with it; it now sits on an unscaled group, so the level stays inside the cell.

Pull requests

• #21 fix(web): keep the reactor fill inside its hexagon (hotfix/0.5.2)

minidash 0.5.1

minidash 0.5.1, a realtime dashboard for an Apple Silicon Mac.

Install: docs/deploy.md

Fixed

• The process card, README and docs said macOS does not expose per-process GPU use without root. It does, through the IORegistry (AGXDeviceUserClient accumulatedGPUTime). The text now says the GPU column is not built yet; ADR 0014 records the correction.
• The README status described 0.3.0; it now reflects the published releases.

Pull requests

• #19 fix: stop claiming per-process GPU use needs root (hotfix/0.5.1)

minidash 0.5.0

minidash 0.5.0, a realtime dashboard for an Apple Silicon Mac.

Spec: spec/0.5.0 · Install: docs/deploy.md

Added

• CPU reactor: per-core utilisation is shown as a honeycomb of hexagons. Each cell shows its core's load as a rounded percentage and a fill that rises with load, changing colour at 60% and 85%. It works for any core count, fills the spare space in the CPU card, hides core numbers when the card is narrow, and has Core N: X% text alternatives. Saved layouts keep working; the detail is labelled "Per-core reactor" in Customise.

Changed

• The README illustration shows the CPU reactor.

Process

• Git Flow: main holds releases, work integrates on develop, and releases and hotfixes come from release/X.Y.Z and hotfix/X.Y.Z branches.
• Merge commits replace squash merging (ADR 0013, superseding the squash-merge part of ADR 0011).
• History renumbered to pre-1.0 versions (0.1.0 to 0.4.1, with 0.2.0 now its own release); the old v1.x tags were removed.

Pull requests

• #14 Spec 0.5.0: CPU cores as a hexagon reactor
• #15 chore: move the process docs, CI and hooks to Git Flow (ADR 0013)
• #16 chore(release): 0.5.0

minidash 0.4.1

minidash 0.4.1, a realtime dashboard for an Apple Silicon Mac.

Install: docs/deploy.md

Fixed

• The 0% axis label on every chart was cut in half at the bottom edge; chart padding now follows the label size.

Pull requests

• #13 fix(web): stop the chart clipping its 0% axis label (rebuilt as hotfix/0.4.1)

minidash 0.4.0

minidash 0.4.0, a realtime dashboard for an Apple Silicon Mac.

Spec: spec/0.4.0 · Install: docs/deploy.md

Added

• HTTPS over Tailscale: deploy/tailscale-https.sh on|off|status publishes the UI (HTTPS 443) and the agent stream (HTTPS 8787) to your tailnet with tailscale serve. Reversible, idempotent, with a dry run; never uses Funnel. Plain HTTP on the LAN keeps working (ADR 0012).
• The UI opens its stream with wss:// when the page is HTTPS and ws:// when it is HTTP.
• One-command upgrade: deploy/upgrade.sh [--host NAME] [--dry-run] builds, copies, installs, rebuilds the UI, then checks the agent, the UI and the live stream, and exits non-zero if any check fails.

Changed

• Deploy, operations, security, configuration and troubleshooting docs cover HTTPS and the upgrade script.
• Spec 0.4.0 is marked implemented; checks that need real hardware, a browser or an account setting are listed as accepted gaps.

Pull requests

• #12 feat: HTTPS over Tailscale and a one-command Mac mini upgrade (spec 0.4.0)
