release / release (push) Successful in 13s
Release 0.0.5: health report (M4), installer (M9), update check (M13)
M4 — health report (the 0.0.4 CHANGELOG entry, folded into this release):
- core/health.py: scan journalctl (Xid/panic/OOM/MCE/AER/thermal), SMART,
  NVIDIA driver mismatch, journald persistence, live temps -> findings
- CLI `rigdoctor report` (text/JSON); GUI Health tab; scanner tests

M9 — installer (first cut):
- core/{catalog,sysenv,installer}.py; `rigdoctor install [--check] [-y]`
- GUI Setup tab: detect distro/GPU, show optional components, one-click
  install of missing apt packages via pkexec/sudo

M13 — update check (check half):
- core/updates.py; sidebar shows up-to-date / "Update to v…" / unavailable

Plus tests, version bump to 0.0.5, CHANGELOG, and doc status updates.

# RigDoctor — Module Catalog (DRAFT v0.2)
Status: ⬜ not started · 🟦 designing · 🟨 in progress · ✅ done
> Module set per D14, plus **M12 (session sharing, D16)** and **M13 (auto-update, D18)**.
> **M7 (stress/repro) was dropped (D7).** M10/M11 are the GUI and tray modules (D10/D11).
> GPU scope reads "all (NVIDIA first)" — NVIDIA first, others via the vendor abstraction (D4).

## 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 service unit + always-on/game-launch triggers (D6/D12) land in Phase 4.
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** — depends on M1; the terminal "HWMonitor for Linux" face. Stdlib-only.
- **M5 / M6 Diagnostics** — inventory export + gaming-env checks; M6 flags risky settings and
suggests the fix command but does not apply it (D9).
- **M8 Alerting** — threshold/event notifications; integrates with the tray applet (M11).
- **M10 Desktop GUI** — PySide6 graphical front-end over the core engine (dashboard, log
browser, report viewer, logger controls). Optional; adds the Qt dependency. *Bootstrapped
early (ahead of its Phase 4 slot) at the user's request:* dark-themed window with sidebar
nav, a live dashboard (circular gauges + collapsible per-subsystem cards, temperature-
colored values), and a **Recording/Logs page** with full M3 controls (start/stop/status +
post-crash report). Health/Inventory remain placeholders until M4/M5. GUI-first per D17.
- **M11 Tray applet** — `QSystemTrayIcon` menu-bar applet. Dropdown shows live M1 readouts
(CPU temp, GPU temp, memory used/total, status dot) and is led by a **Run Diagnostic**
action (the guided diagnostic session), plus Open dashboard / Start-Stop recording /
Snapshot / Quit (D13). Optional; shares the Qt dependency with M10.
- **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.
*Pending:* writing config/module selection and enabling the `systemd --user` service.
- **M12 Session sharing / remote assist** (D16) — let a helper inspect a user's machine, in
an escalating ladder: (1) **diagnostic bundle export** (inventory + recent log + report,
one-way), (2) **live read-only view** over a user-chosen tunnel (Tailscale/cloudflared/SSH,
no hosted relay), (3) **gated interactive terminal** wrapping tmate/sshx (read-only by
default; read-write only on explicit consent — a deliberate exception to D9). Per-session
consent, ephemeral revocable tokens, audit log.
- **M13 Auto-update** (D18) — *check half implemented:* on GUI launch, `core/updates` queries
the Gitea releases API and the sidebar shows up-to-date / an "Update to v…" button / "update
check unavailable" (the instance currently requires sign-in for anonymous API calls). The
no-root **self-update** (download → verify → atomic swap → restart) is still pending.
*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.)
## 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)*
## 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.
