# socktop (client)
Minimal TUI client for the socktop remote monitoring agent.
Features:
- Connects to a socktop_agent over WebSocket / secure WebSocket
- Displays CPU, memory, swap, disks, network, processes, (optional) GPU metrics
- Selfsigned TLS cert pinning via --tls-ca
- Profile management with saved intervals
- Low CPU usage (request-driven updates)
Quick start:
```
cargo install socktop
socktop ws://HOST:3000/ws
```
With TLS (copy agent cert first):
```
socktop --tls-ca cert.pem wss://HOST:8443/ws
```
Demo mode (spawns a local agent automatically on first run prompt):
```
socktop --demo
```

# socktop_agent (server)
Lightweight ondemand metrics WebSocket server for the socktop TUI.
Highlights:
- Collects system metrics only when requested (keeps idle CPU <1%)
- Optional TLS (selfsigned cert autogenerated & pinned by client)
- JSON for fast metrics / disks; protobuf (optionally gzipped) for processes
- Accurate perprocess CPU% on Linux via /proc jiffies delta
- Optional GPU & temperature metrics (disable via env vars)
- Simple token auth (?token=...) support
Run (no TLS):
```
cargo install socktop_agent
socktop_agent --port 3000
```
Enable TLS:
```
SOCKTOP_ENABLE_SSL=1 socktop_agent --port 8443
# cert/key stored under $XDG_DATA_HOME/socktop_agent/tls
```
Environment toggles:
- SOCKTOP_AGENT_GPU=0 (disable GPU collection)
- SOCKTOP_AGENT_TEMP=0 (disable temperature)
- SOCKTOP_TOKEN=secret (require token param from client)
- SOCKTOP_AGENT_METRICS_TTL_MS=250 (cache fast metrics window)
- SOCKTOP_AGENT_PROCESSES_TTL_MS=1000
- SOCKTOP_AGENT_DISKS_TTL_MS=1000
