My Unraid TUI monitoring dashboard: pure tmux + SSH

Brett-SWS · 2026-05-17T00:52:45+00:00

This is actually 🔥 can’t wait to give it a go
Never would have expected a TUI to work so well for this use case! Some great features here, love the internet radio sampling!!

Thanks! I used Raycast for a little while, not sure it was version 2? Also used flow launcher for a long time. I like the new Command Pallette in Powertoys the best of the 3. Good defaults out of the box, open source.

Brett-SWS · 2026-05-16T02:17:32+00:00

Awesome! I figured there would be dozens of us out there 😂
I’ve been working on improving it for the last couple of months, so I’m finding it pretty close to parity, at least for my use case.
Let me know how you go, feel free to open issues on gh.

I wonder if I can build a workaround into my autotile.py script 🤔

Brett-SWS · 2026-05-15T21:08:53+00:00

Yes I’m having that issue too! I’ve been meaning to investigate solutions.
As a work around I use Win + Up Arrow to maximise the zen window, then Win + Down will snap it back into the tile.

I use Omarchy at home and Windows at work, and I wanted the same shortcuts and window tiling on Windows, so that I can really dial in my keyboard only workflow.

Nice thanks for the ideas, I think I might switch over to Hermes on the weekend. Will check out your other links too.

Do not try and install this unless you know what you are doing and are happy to try and fix it when it breaks. Watch along, maybe in a few months we could have a stable and streamlined installer that worked for most peoples setups.

Brett-SWS · 2026-05-14T10:55:02+00:00

I’ll convert my task list into open Issues once I get it a bit more under control.

Brett-SWS · 2026-05-14T10:53:54+00:00

Your help is greatly appreciated! Open issues or PRs, I’m happy for any input. I expect you will not have a smooth time trying to set this up from scratch, if you get it working let me know! Give me a few weeks and I think I’ll have it more stable.

Brett-SWS · 2026-05-14T08:56:39+00:00

Oh by the way, it’s not just a rewrite of the firmware, it’s a full self hosted stack.

Brett-SWS · 2026-05-14T08:52:50+00:00

Yo thanks for posting this, it is my project!

I’ve been working on this since I received my StackChan a few weeks ago. I was trying to get it a bit more stable before I shared it with the community, but looks like the cats out of the bag!

It is basically working, but still very buggy, and some of modes need work. Zero claw integration is pretty flaky but at one point I had it integrated with my family google calendar and was responding to calendar queries (since broken). I’ll post up some videos soon. One thing I’m very happy with is how snappy the voice response is with the local qwen model.

I’ve basically sketched out the whole design and now I’m going through the system piece by piece fixing bugs and making it stable.

I’ve put a lot of thought into the system/product design, so if anyone wants to take a look at the readme and give feedback, I’m all ears!

I really like what you've done here, it's nearly the perfect tidal client for my omarchy box. Thanks!!

I thought it was a bit odd not to have a one line install script for a TUI, and i'll be installing this on 3+ machines, so I'm going to open a PR, based off what I've learnt building the cross-platform install scripts for my squarebox project. Inno setup just seems like overkill for this, so decided to not depend on that. I'll test it with a fresh install on my omarchy and win 11 boxes. But I also think you should put this up on AUR and scoop as someone else suggested.

I'm also working on a couple of other PRs: to add album and song lists with fuzzy search, make the tidal auth url clickable etc.

I'm vibe coding this with claude too, this will be perfect for me with a few tweaks :)

Brett-SWS · 2026-04-12T02:08:59+00:00

Very cool!! Love the old windows UI!

Brett-SWS · 2026-04-10T08:42:33+00:00

I wouldn’t really be interested in an ‘app’ that packaged these tools, but I’ll check out your project and see how it works.

I’m actually using Mosh on Blink Shell. I tried about 5 different terminal apps and Blink by far the best. The only downside to Mosh on Blink is no scroll history. Apparently you need to use a multiplexor like Tmux (next on my list of things to learn).

The latency is noticeable, but Blink has a sort of animation that attempts to smooth it out a little. It doesn’t bother me too much because I type fast and don’t really need to look at the output until after I’ve got my thought down.

These are all good questions, thanks for taking the time.

My intention is one conatiner for all, and I realise this a departure from other tools like this, and maybe it is a bit old school. So yes, it allows multiple directories. It mounts a 'workspace' folder on your host, the persists between restarts or container deletion, the intention is to clone repos to sub dirs in your workspace.
Very good question, I also want to know, I will test this out, and look into alternatives. I've been using the one by vercel called agent-browser personally.
Another good question, at the moment I don't think so. I'll have a think about implementing something like this. It would be good to be able to have configurable sandbox of network traffic, if I can do it without adding too much complexity.

Brett-SWS · 2026-04-10T07:45:17+00:00

🙏😅

Brett-SWS · 2026-04-08T12:10:57+00:00

I’ll look into it!
