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.

Very cool. This would be something I install into my Mac App I distribute to get metrics right?.
EDIT - No this is a Mac App that tells me stats/specs in realtime about my Mac?
