v0.1.0 — Find the frozen app. Get back to work.

Task Manager for Omarchy's first non-preview release gives you a familiar, mouse-friendly way to see what's running, find a misbehaving application and close it.

v0.1.0 carries forward the behaviour tested in v0.0.5. This release updates version labels and documentation; it adds no new application features.

  • Start with Summary. See running applications and compact CPU and memory graphs, then find an app by name.
  • Close an app with care. Request a normal close first. If it won't cooperate, Force quit names the target and asks for confirmation.
  • See what happened before you opened it. Background monitoring retains the last minute of CPU, memory, disk and network readings, including while the window is closed with Super + W.
  • Go deeper when needed. Performance, processes, services and startup applications remain available. GPU readings depend on the driver and hardware.
  • Fits your desktop. Omarchy colours and fonts, a movable and resizable window, remembered preferences and keyboard controls.

Install or upgrade

Download the x86_64 package and SHA256SUMS into the same directory, then run:

sha256sum --ignore-missing --check SHA256SUMS &&
sudo pacman -U ./omarchy-task-manager-0.1.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

Open Task Manager from the launcher. Super + Alt + Delete is an optional, one-time shortcut setup.

The existing Omarchy packaging PR handles the channel update separately. sudo pacman -Syu omarchy-task-manager installs whichever version your channel currently publishes; this GitHub release does not itself promote the package to Edge, RC or Stable.

Tested on the XPS

Tom accepted v0.0.5 on his XPS, including Summary and background history, and confirmed the remaining logout/reboot startup and GPU checks on 24 September 2026. v0.1.0 preserves that behaviour. Fresh release CI builds and tests on Ubuntu and Arch, including real user-service controls and package installation, upgrade, reinstall and removal. BUILD-INFO.txt identifies the release commit; SHA256SUMS covers its assets.

That acceptance covers this XPS, not every GPU or driver. ARM is not supported by the published package. Per-app network traffic is unavailable; detailed process, service and GPU polling runs while the window is open. The existing screenshot predates Summary and background monitoring.

Background monitoring and removal

The first normal installed launch enables a user service. Background monitoring can be disabled in the menu; Pause live view only freezes the displayed readings. History stays local, and the collector has no network listener.

Before removal or downgrade, turn Background monitoring off or run:

systemctl --user disable --now omarchy-task-manager-monitor.service

Preferences and application history survive removal. The last-minute graph cache is temporary. A verified v0.0.5 package remains available for rollback; v0.1.0 introduces no state-format changes.
