Lightweight, self-contained Linux server monitoring tool

Kula is a lightweight, single-binary Linux server monitor. It collects system metrics every second straight from /proc and /sys, stores them in a built-in tiered ring-buffer engine, and serves them over a real-time web UI dashboard and a terminal TUI. Zero external dependencies, no external database — just install and go.

Collected metrics include CPU, GPU, load, memory, swap, network, disk I/O and usage, thermals, battery, processes, containers (Docker/podman/cgroups) and application probes (PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, nginx, apache2).

This snap uses STRICT confinement. After installing, connect the observation interfaces so Kula can read system-wide metrics:

 sudo snap connect kula:system-observe
 sudo snap connect kula:hardware-observe
 sudo snap connect kula:mount-observe
 sudo snap connect kula:network-observe
 sudo snap connect kula:docker        # optional: Docker collector

The daemon starts automatically and listens on http://localhost:27960 by default. Edit /var/snap/kula/current/config.yaml and run sudo snap restart kula.daemon to apply changes.
