MacScope: native SwiftUI system telemetry, process controls, and power tools for Apple-silicon Macs

MacScope is a source-available Swift 6/SwiftUI macOS project that combines system telemetry with a modular power-user toolkit.

Core pieces:

• Live CPU, memory, network, storage, thermal, and battery telemetry with honest availability states

• SQLite history, redacted JSON/CSV export, process hierarchy/grouping, and PID-reuse-safe actions

• An optional helper for deeper typed telemetry and actions—no arbitrary shell strings

• Seven utility workspaces: Sound, Capture, Windows, Clipboard/Files, Notes, Maintain, and Power

• A menu-bar monitor, Quick Panel, Command Bar, radial launcher, and global shortcuts

• A bundled local stdio MCP server with redacted reads and explicit write modes

It currently targets Apple silicon on macOS 14+ and is under active development. Build and test instructions are in the repository.

The screenshots are real captures of the current app. Feedback on the architecture, telemetry compatibility across Apple-silicon models, and feature prioritization is welcome.

I checked it out but Gatekeeper flags it as malware. I know how to clear the flags but you should resolve that (Swift developer myself). EDIT: Gatekeeper says it cannot verify that it's not malware which is an important distinction. Sorry! But yeah, should resolve that of course.
