macOS system monitor apps

This cluster consists of native macOS desktop applications for real-time monitoring of system resources such as CPU, memory, disk, network, GPU, and processes. The cluster's dated history before the index start is too thin to read a shape from, as there are no dated entries in that period. In terms of traction, ActivityMonitor leads with 91 stars, followed by mac-monitor (4 stars) and gauge (2 stars).

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 18 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
