## Notes per module
- **M1 Sensor core** — the foundation everything else samples from. Stdlib-only. Abstracts
  NVIDIA/AMD/Intel + hwmon behind one interface; **ship the NVIDIA + hwmon path first**.
- **M3 Crash-capture logger** — the highest-value piece for the seed use case. `fsync` per
  sample; GPU-lost detection via query timeout; bounded rotation; `systemd --user` service
  with a **user-selectable trigger mode** (always-on / game-launch / manual — D6).
  *Implemented (manual trigger):* JSONL log with fsync-per-sample, size-based rotation
  (`log_max_bytes`/`log_backups`), GPU-lost/recovered event markers, atomic status file, and
  `rigdoctor record run|start|stop|status|report`. The foreground `run` is the systemd-ready
  entrypoint. The **game-launch trigger** is implemented via the D12 wrapper (`rigdoctor wrap
  %command%`, see M6/below); the `systemd --user` service unit + always-on trigger (D6) and the
  zero-config watcher (D12) are still pending. Also fully driven from the GUI's Recording/Logs
  page (M10) via shared `core.reccontrol`.
- **M4 Health report** — turns scattered logs into a prioritized, plain-language findings
  list with **suggested** fixes (read-only, D9). Reuses M1 for a live snapshot. Also powers
  the **guided diagnostic session** (with M3): pick a game → focused capture → scan →
  findings (see SPEC §4). *Implemented:* journalctl scan (Xid/panic/OOM/MCE/AER/thermal/amdgpu),
  SMART, NVIDIA driver-mismatch, journald-persistence + live-temp checks; `rigdoctor report`
  (text/JSON) + GUI Health tab. GPU-firmware verification deferred.
- **M2 Live monitor** — the terminal "HWMonitor for Linux" face. *Implemented (`tui.py`):*
  `rigdoctor monitor` is a stdlib **curses** dashboard — current / session-min / session-max
  per sensor, grouped by subsystem, with temperature & utilization color bands; `q` quits,
  `r` resets the min/max. Falls back to a plain redraw on a non-TTY (`--plain` forces it).
- **M5 / M6 Diagnostics** — inventory export + gaming-env checks; M6 flags risky settings and
  suggests the fix command but does not apply it (D9). *M6 implemented (Steam detection first —
  the D12 "pick a game" foundation):* discovers Steam installs + all library folders
  (`libraryfolders.vdf`, multi-drive) and the games in each (`appmanifest_*.acf`), filtering
  runtimes/Proton/redistributables — stdlib only. **Libraries are opt-in** (`steam_libraries`
  config); the GUI **Games** page lists them with per-library counts and rescans in the
  background on every launch, badging games installed since the last scan (cached in
  `state/games.json`). CLI: `rigdoctor games` / `games libraries [--enable|--disable|--all]`.
  *Env-check engine implemented* (`core/gameenv.py`): a read-only findings report (reusing the
  M4 `Finding` model) over PCIe ASPM, NVIDIA persistence mode, CPU governor (the three seed-case
  contributors to GPU bus-drop / Xid 79), GameMode, MangoHud, swappiness, shader cache, THP, CPU
  mitigations, and installed Proton versions — each with the suggested fix command. CLI
  `rigdoctor gameenv`; GUI **Environment** page. Per **D22**, the GUI adds **one-click apply**
  for the runtime-reversible tunables (governor / NVIDIA persistence / PCIe ASPM / swappiness /
  THP — dropdown + Apply via a single pkexec prompt, `core/fixes.py`) and **one-click install**
  of optional tools (GameMode / MangoHud / cpupower, now in the M9 catalog). GRUB/mitigations
  stay suggestion-only. *Guided diagnostic (D12 "pick a game", `core/diagnostic.py`):* a focused
  capture tagged with a game → window-scoped report (capture summary + M4 findings), in the CLI
  (`rigdoctor diagnose start/status/finish`) and GUI (per-game **Run Diagnostic** → recording
  banner → results dialog). **Auto-capture** via the D12 wrapper (`rigdoctor wrap %command%`,
  `core/wrap.py`; GUI "Auto-capture…" helper). **Hard crashes are detected** (capture left
  without a clean stop) and flagged on next launch with a crash-boot kernel-log analysis
  (`pending_crash`/`analyze_crash` + `health.check_previous_boot`). **Non-Steam launchers**
  (Lutris SQLite + Heroic JSON, `core/launchers.py`) are detected and listed alongside Steam
  games; env checks also cover **GPU PowerMizer** (X), **Wine** and **Steam-client** versions.
  *Pending:* the zero-config watcher (D12 fallback) — landing with M9's trigger-mode work.
- **M8 Alerting** — threshold/event notifications; integrates with the tray applet (M11).
- **M10 Desktop GUI** — PySide6 graphical front-end over the core engine. Optional; adds the
  Qt dependency. Dark-themed window with a **grouped sidebar** (Monitor / Diagnose / System /
  App) over: **Dashboard** (live history graphs + per-subsystem cards), **Games** (M6 detection
  + Run Diagnostic), **Recordings** (recorder controls + view/report any captured log + analyze
  a crash), **System Health** (M4 scan), **Tuning** (M6 gaming tunables + fixes), **Inventory**
  (M5), **Settings** (components/deps + alerts + account + uninstall), and **Share** (M12). A
  global recording badge shows on every page. GUI-first per D17.
- **M11 Tray applet** — `QSystemTrayIcon` menu-bar applet. *Implemented (`gui/tray.py`, D13):*
  the menu shows live M1 readouts (CPU temp, GPU temp, memory used/total) + a status line
  (Normal / Hot / GPU not responding), led by a **Run Diagnostic** submenu (per detected game →
  the guided session), plus Open dashboard / Start-Stop recording / Snapshot-copy / Quit. It
  shares the dashboard's sample stream (no extra sampling) and drives the existing MainWindow
  flows. With a tray present, closing the window **hides to the tray** (Quit exits); `rigdoctor-gui
  --tray` starts hidden for autostart. Optional; shares the Qt dependency with M10. *Needs a tray
  host* — on GNOME that means the AppIndicator extension; degrades to no-op if none is available.
- **M9 Installer** — interactive wizard layered on the `.deb` (D8); apt-first dependency
  resolution; enables the logger service and trigger mode. *Implemented (first cut):* distro/
  package-manager/GPU detection (`core/sysenv`), an optional-component catalog (`core/catalog`),
  and dependency install via pkexec/sudo — `rigdoctor install [--check] [-y]` + GUI Setup tab.
  The **user-local app install** is `install.sh` (private venv + `~/.local/bin` launchers +
  desktop entry, no root; handles the `python3-venv` prerequisite) plus a self-extracting
  **`.run`** (pure-Python self-extractor, `packaging/make_run.py`, built by CI). *Pending:*
  config/module selection + `systemd --user`
  service enable.
- **M12 Session sharing / remote assist** (D16, scoped to terminal-only by **D23**) — a single
  mode: a **host-consented shared terminal** over the relay. The host shares a real PTY running
  their `$SHELL` (colors/theming preserved — fish etc.); the guest watches live and can type
  **only if the host allows it** (otherwise read-only) — a deliberate, consent-gated exception
  to D9. The host reads along and can type too (e.g. a sudo password, which stays local). Either
  side can pop the terminal **full-screen**. Account-gated by the Gitea token. *The earlier
  read-only stats view and `share serve` (Tier 1/2) were removed.*
- **M13 Auto-update** (D18) — *check + auth implemented:* updates are **gated to Gitea account
  holders** via a Personal Access Token, stored **encrypted in the OS keyring** (`secret-tool`)
  with a 0600-file fallback (`config.load_token`/`save_token`/`token_backend`). `core/updates`
  queries the releases API with the token; CLI `login`/`logout`/`update`; GUI Setup "Update
  access" panel + sidebar states. The no-root **self-update apply** is implemented:
  `rigdoctor update` runs an authenticated `pip install --upgrade "rigdoctor[gui] @
  git+https://oauth2:<token>@…@<tag>"` into the user-local venv (GUI "Update to v…" button +
  restart prompt; token scrubbed). Installed via the user-local **`install.sh`** /
  self-extracting **`.run`** (M9).
  *Original plan:* On launch, check the public Gitea releases API and
  **self-update a user-local install with no root** (download → verify checksum/signature →
  atomic symlink swap → restart, incl. the daemon). HTTPS-only, version-check-only (no
  telemetry), opt-out-able. Surfaced in the GUI; `rigdoctor update` in the CLI. (`.deb` users
  update via apt instead.)
- **M14 AI assistant** (D24) — optional, **strictly opt-in, never automatic**: explains the
  collected diagnostics in plain language only when the user presses **"Explain with AI"**
  (`core/ai.py`, GUI button on the diagnostic dialog, `rigdoctor ai explain`). The user picks a
  provider explicitly (no default): **Ollama** (local, private, no key) or **Claude** (Anthropic
  Messages API, key in the keyring; consent prompt before sending). Answers are **grounded** —
  we pass the actual findings plus matched reference facts from a curated knowledge base
  (`core/ai_knowledge.py`, "RAG-lite": exact keyword/code match, no embeddings, stdlib only),
  which lifts a small local model and sharpens Claude. Stdlib `urllib` (no pip deps); output is
  advisory (D9). Configure in **Settings → AI assistant**.

- **M15 Logging & report bundles** (D25) — opt-in via one `logging_enabled` toggle (default off):
  application logging to a rotating `app.log` (`core/applog.py`) and **per-diagnostic storage**
  (`core/diagstore.py`) — each diagnostic gets its own `DATA_DIR/diagnostics/<id>/` (capture,
  `result.json`, `report.txt`, scoped game logs, and an `ai/` record of every AI interaction:
  exact data sent, model, reply). **"Report"** zips one into `DATA_DIR/reports/` (GUI button on
  the diagnostic dialog; CLI `rigdoctor bundle`). Stays local; shareable on demand.

## Bundles (final — D14)
- **Essential:** M1 + M3 + M4  *(the MVP, NVIDIA-only — D5)*
- **Monitoring:** M2 + M8
- **Diagnostics:** M5 + M6
- **Desktop UI:** M10 + M11  *(adds PySide6)*
- **Sharing:** M12  *(session sharing / remote assist — D16)*
- **AI:** M14  *(optional AI explanations — D24)*

## MVP candidate — *confirmed (D5)*
**M1 + M3 + M4 (Essential), NVIDIA-only, CLI-first.** Gives a working tool that captures the
GPU crash and explains the logs — deliverable before the installer, GUI/tray, or multi-vendor
work.
