- Mac users tracking system activity and development servers
- Worth noticing
- The browser demo uses sample data and explicitly says it cannot read your Mac; actions that stop or remove items require confirmation.
Field notes
The browser tour lets visitors select items in the sidebar and inspect sample interface states; its figures are explicitly simulated rather than read from the visitor’s computer. The product page describes dev-server grouping by project folder, a read-only command-line interface with JSON output, and startup items grouped by the app that installed them. Per-app audio is marked experimental and off by default.
