Add comprehensive tracking for services stopped via dashboard to prevent
false alerts when users intentionally stop services.
Features:
- User-stopped services report Status::Ok instead of Warning
- Persistent storage survives agent restarts
- Dashboard sends UserStart/UserStop commands
- Agent tracks and syncs user-stopped state globally
- Systemd collector respects user-stopped flags
Implementation:
- New service_tracker module with persistent JSON storage
- Enhanced ServiceAction enum with UserStart/UserStop variants
- Global singleton tracker accessible by collectors
- Service status logic updated to check user-stopped flag
- Dashboard version now uses CARGO_PKG_VERSION automatically
Bump version to v0.1.43
Simplified keyboard controls by removing service restart functionality:
- Removed 'r' key restart functionality from Services panel
- Made 'R' key always trigger system rebuild regardless of focused panel
- Updated context shortcuts to show 'R: Rebuild Host' globally
- Removed all ServiceRestart enum variants and associated code:
- UiCommand::ServiceRestart
- CommandType::ServiceRestart
- ServiceAction::Restart
- Cleaned up pending transition logic to only handle Start/Stop commands
The 'R' key now consistently rebuilds the current host from any panel,
while 's' and 'S' continue to handle service start/stop in Services panel.
- Remove all SystemRebuild command infrastructure from agent and dashboard
- Replace with direct tmux popup execution: ssh {user}@{host} {alias}
- Add configurable SSH user and rebuild alias in dashboard config
- Eliminate agent process crashes during rebuilds
- Simplify architecture by removing ZMQ command streaming complexity
- Clean up all related dead code and fix compilation warnings
Benefits:
- Process isolation: rebuild runs independently via SSH
- Crash resilience: agent/dashboard can restart without affecting rebuilds
- Configuration flexibility: SSH user and alias configurable per deployment
- Operational simplicity: standard tmux popup interface
- Add terminal popup UI component with 80% screen coverage and terminal styling
- Extend ZMQ protocol with CommandOutputMessage for streaming output
- Implement real-time output streaming in agent system rebuild handler
- Add keyboard controls (ESC/Q to close, ↑↓ to scroll) for popup interaction
- Fix system panel Build display to show actual NixOS build instead of config hash
- Update service filters in README with wildcard patterns for better matching
- Add periodic progress updates during nixos-rebuild execution
- Integrate command output handling in dashboard main loop
- Add nixos_config_api_key_file option to NixOS configuration
- Support reading API token from file for private repositories
- Automatically inject token into HTTPS URLs (https://token@host/repo.git)
- Graceful fallback to original URL if key file missing/empty
- Default key file location: /var/lib/cm-dashboard/git-api-key
Usage: echo 'your-api-token' | sudo tee /var/lib/cm-dashboard/git-api-key
Replace direct directory access with git clone/pull approach:
- Add git configuration options (url, branch, working_dir) to NixOS module
- Update SystemConfig and AgentCommand to use git parameters
- Implement ensure_git_repository() method for clone/pull operations
- Agent clones nixosbox to /var/lib/cm-dashboard/nixos-config
- Maintains security while solving permission denied issues
The agent now manages its own copy of the configuration without
needing access to /home/cm directory.
This implements the core functionality for executing remote commands through
the dashboard and providing real-time visual feedback to users.
Key Features:
- Remote service control (start/stop/restart) via existing keyboard shortcuts
- System rebuild command with maintenance mode integration
- Real-time visual feedback with service status transitions
- ZMQ command protocol extension for service and system operations
Implementation Details:
- Extended AgentCommand enum with ServiceControl and SystemRebuild variants
- Added agent-side handlers for systemctl and nixos-rebuild execution
- Implemented command status tracking system for visual feedback
- Enhanced services widget to show progress states (⏳ restarting)
- Integrated command execution with existing keyboard navigation
Keyboard Controls:
- Services Panel: Space (start/stop), R (restart)
- System Panel: R (nixos-rebuild switch)
- Backup Panel: B (trigger backup)
Technical Architecture:
- Command flow: UI → Dashboard → ZMQ → Agent → systemctl/nixos-rebuild
- Status tracking: InProgress/Success/Failed states with visual indicators
- Maintenance mode: Automatic /tmp/cm-maintenance file management
- Service feedback: Icon transitions (● → ⏳ → ● with status text)
Add comprehensive hysteresis support to prevent status oscillation near
threshold boundaries while maintaining responsive alerting.
Key Features:
- HysteresisThresholds with configurable upper/lower limits
- StatusTracker for per-metric status history
- Default gaps: CPU load 10%, memory 5%, disk temp 5°C
Updated Components:
- CPU load collector (5-minute average with hysteresis)
- Memory usage collector (percentage-based thresholds)
- Disk temperature collector (SMART data monitoring)
- All collectors updated to support StatusTracker interface
Cache Interval Adjustments:
- Service status: 60s → 10s (faster response)
- Disk usage: 300s → 60s (more frequent checks)
- Backup status: 900s → 60s (quicker updates)
- SMART data: moved to 600s tier (10 minutes)
Architecture:
- Individual metric status calculation in collectors
- Centralized StatusTracker in MetricCollectionManager
- Status aggregation preserved in dashboard widgets
This commit addresses several key issues identified during development:
Major Changes:
- Replace hardcoded top CPU/RAM process display with real system data
- Add intelligent process monitoring to CpuCollector using ps command
- Fix disk metrics permission issues in systemd collector
- Optimize service collection to focus on status, memory, and disk only
- Update dashboard widgets to display live process information
Process Monitoring Implementation:
- Added collect_top_cpu_process() and collect_top_ram_process() methods
- Implemented ps-based monitoring with accurate CPU percentages
- Added filtering to prevent self-monitoring artifacts (ps commands)
- Enhanced error handling and validation for process data
- Dashboard now shows realistic values like "claude (PID 2974) 11.0%"
Service Collection Optimization:
- Removed CPU monitoring from systemd collector for efficiency
- Enhanced service directory permission error logging
- Simplified services widget to show essential metrics only
- Fixed service-to-directory mapping accuracy
UI and Dashboard Improvements:
- Reorganized dashboard layout with btop-inspired multi-panel design
- Updated system panel to include real top CPU/RAM process display
- Enhanced widget formatting and data presentation
- Removed placeholder/hardcoded data throughout the interface
Technical Details:
- Updated agent/src/collectors/cpu.rs with process monitoring
- Modified dashboard/src/ui/mod.rs for real-time process display
- Enhanced systemd collector error handling and disk metrics
- Updated CLAUDE.md documentation with implementation details
