- Worth noticing
- The page compares one D92 clock frame at roughly 50 KB with about 3.5 KB when only changed parts are sent.
Field notes
The page shows a layout command that places a clock, looping video, and CI metric side by side, with each zone running independently. Its dashboard examples include CPU, memory, network, and disk graphs covering the last minute. For Claude Code, the project says it reads local logs and sends nothing elsewhere; it also identifies itself as independent of Anthropic.
