System stats bar widget (CPU / RAM / disk / GPU) with a details card

[elangrr]

I built a small system stats widget for the Omarchy bar and wanted to see if there's interest in having it as a first-party widget before I open a PR.

In the bar it shows CPU usage by default. You can choose which stats appear: CPU usage, CPU temp, RAM, disk, GPU usage and GPU temp.

Clicking it opens a card in the same style as the Network / Display / Power panels:

• CPU, memory, disk, GPU and VRAM usage bars
• CPU temp, GPU temp, GPU power draw, load average and uptime
• A "More details" button that opens btop for the full process list
• Options for which stats show in the bar, and whether a click opens the card or expands every stat inline in the bar

Right now it runs as a local plugin in ~/.config/omarchy/plugins/. If you'd take it upstream, I'd rework it to fit shell-dev.md before opening a PR or you can just add it yourself since I know you gonna make it better

+1, I'd use this. I've been running a similar local plugin, modelled on the macOS Stats app, so here's what turned out useful in case it helps shape a first-party version:

• Network up/down speed in the bar (↑/↓ with the current rate). It's the stat I look at most, and it's missing from the list above.
• Disk read/write speed next to disk usage.
• One bar item per stat, each with its own card, instead of one widget. Clicking CPU opens a CPU card, network a network card, and so on. Each card shows a short history chart (the last 2 minutes) plus details: CPU user/system split, load average and top processes; memory used by apps, cache and swap with top processes; disk read/write.

Everything except the process lists comes from /proc (stat, meminfo, net/dev, diskstats, loadavg), so a first-party version can stay cheap. Mine still shells out for df and ps on a timer, which I'd expect upstream to read from /proc and /sys instead.

Your CPU/GPU temperatures and the btop button are things mine lacks, so a combined version would cover both.

I've published mine as a third-party plugin in case it's useful as a reference, or for anyone who wants it before something lands in core:

omarchy plugin add https://github.com/lkshrk/omarchy-stats --enable

Since my earlier comment it gained a GPU item (NVIDIA through nvidia-smi, AMD from sysfs), temperatures from every hwmon sensor, per-core bars, per-drive cards with a filesystem/partition donut, and settings for which items and charts show. Readings come from /proc and /sys every 2 seconds; card details are fetched only while a card is open.
