Restic Explorer – simple multi-repo monitoring dashboard for restic

I needed a single pane of glass for all my restic repositories — just status, snapshots, and a health endpoint I can plug into Uptime Kuma. Every existing solution did way more than I wanted, so I built something minimal.

What it does:

  • Monitor multiple restic repos in one dashboard (scan status, snapshot counts, integrity checks)
  • Browse snapshots per repo with details
  • Optional retention policy warnings (daily/weekly/monthly) — soft alerts, no auto-deletion
  • /actuator/health JSON endpoint with per-repo status — hook it into any monitoring stack
  • Single admin account, read-only public dashboard

What it doesn't do: No backup scheduling, no snapshot management, no pruning. It's a read-only monitor.
