"Not a dashboard. An instrument panel."

Pulse is a cinematic, terminal-based system monitor built for enthusiasts who crave high-density telemetry with a premium aesthetic. Every panel animates; nothing is static.

Built with the Direct OS Engine, Pulse communicates directly with your kernel for high-performance metrics with near-zero overhead.

✨ Features

• Direct OS Engine: High-performance architecture using native OS APIs. No Rust, no complex build tools—just pure, optimized Python.
• Transcendence mode: Hit X on any focused subsystem to enter an immersive, high-detail view.
• Neural Insight Engine: Real-time heuristic analysis of system bottlenecks and resource leaks.
• Cinematic UI: Smooth animations, glassmorphism-inspired transparency, and curated color palettes.
• High-Precision Pulse: Configurable sampling rates down to 0.2s for micro-stutter detection.

🚀 Release Process

This project uses automated PyPI publishing via GitHub Actions with Trusted Publishing:

1. Configure PyPI: Add this repository as a "Pending Publisher" on PyPI.org.
   • Project: pulse-monitor
   • Workflow: publish.yml
2. Release: Tag and push to trigger publishing:

   git tag v0.3.3
   git push origin v0.3.3

The workflow automatically builds and publishes when a tag starting with v is pushed. No API tokens are required in GitHub Secrets.
