deskmon-agent
Docker app from Neur0map's Repository
Overview
Lightweight system monitoring agent for the Deskmon macOS menu bar app.
Streams live CPU, memory, disk, network, and Docker container stats to the Deskmon app on your Mac via SSH tunnel. No cloud, no accounts, no telemetry.
What it monitors:
- CPU usage and temperature
- Memory usage
- All mounted disks (array, cache, parity, unassigned)
- Network upload/download speed
- Docker containers with per-container CPU, memory, network, and disk I/O
- Top processes by CPU/memory
Container actions: Start, stop, and restart Docker containers from your Mac.
The host filesystem is mounted read-only. The agent makes zero outbound connections.
Requires the free Deskmon macOS app: github.com/neur0map/deskmon
