Release 6.8.0

What actually changes in this version

Memory Guard on macOS, Zombie Killer in the app, and the same rule: do not kill what you are using.

Memory Guard on macOS

Optional LaunchAgent that reaps idle orphans (ppid 1, idle CPU, at least one hour). Never Warp, Chrome, live agent CLIs, or fseventsd.

Background Zombie Killer

Flags processes with sustained CPU or RAM, keys them by (pid, start_time), and waits for confirmation.

AI privacy mode

Stable pseudonymous redaction before context leaves your machine.

Daily AI budget

A shared bucket caps ai_chat, analyze_processes, analyze_context, and validate_api_key.

Native desktop

Tauri + Svelte 5 UI with live telemetry and light/dark themes.

CLI and TUI

The same core capabilities from a terminal for servers and automation.

Operational security

Local audit, rules, and network telemetry to catch anomalies early.

Fast path

From the terminal to the visual panel without switching tools

omnimon monitor

Interactive view of processes, ranking, and live system activity.

omnimon audit --security

Local checks and risk surface with operator-friendly output.

omnimon-memory-guard prove

Classifier contract: leftovers yes, false positives no.

Quick start

First steps so you do not get lost

A short path from the dashboard to a verified download.

Step 1

Open OmniMon and read the dashboard

CPU, RAM, network, and processes tell you if the machine is stable.

Step 2

Filter noise and focus the problem

Search and tables isolate the app, host, or spike you care about.

Step 3

Ask AI for context or run an audit

Stay manual, or use AI/CLI to summarize usage and suggest actions.

Step 4

Verify the release you install

Check the artifact against SHA256SUMS.txt and the published signature.
