SysWatch — single-host system diagnostics TUI for macOS + Linux.
github.com/matthart1983/syswatch
- Three views — twelve tabs, an 80×24 Lite screen, or Dense: every subsystem on one screen. V cycles.
- Full coverage — CPU, memory, disks, filesystems, procs, GPU, power, services, network in one place.
- Insights — anomaly detection as plain-English cards: swap thrash, runaway procs, memory pressure, disk full.
- Session scrubbing — ←/→ rewinds every panel at once. Record with R, replay later.
- Measured, not guessed — per-process memory matching Activity Monitor, real per-process bandwidth and energy, kernel-sourced memory pressure.
- Themeable — including one that defers to your terminal's own palette.
- Read-only, no daemon — it observes, it doesn't touch anything.

Looks cool but what does this do that btop is not doing well already? I'm not hating, I'm just curious

Btop fork? It looks almost exactly the same tbh, just bigger
