llmtop is an intelligent system monitoring tool that combines real-time system metrics with LLM-powered insights. It provides a dynamic terminal interface showing system performance metrics enhanced with AI-driven analysis.

Note: This project is currently in beta testing. Features and interfaces may change.

• Real-time system metrics monitoring (CPU, Memory, Disk, Network)
• Process monitoring with resource usage
• AI-powered system analysis using either OpenAI or Ollama
• Smart alerting system for resource thresholds
• Dynamic terminal UI with auto-updating metrics

Install directly from PyPI:

pip install llmtop

llmtop supports two LLM backends for system analysis:

1. Set your OpenAI API key:

   export OPENAI_API_KEY='your-api-key-here'

2. Run with OpenAI:

   llmtop --use-openai

1. Install Ollama from ollama.ai
2. Start the Ollama service
3. Run llmtop:

   llmtop

llmtop [OPTIONS]

Options:
  --update-frequency INTEGER  Update frequency in seconds (default: 5)
  --use-openai               Use OpenAI instead of local model
  --history-length INTEGER   Number of historical data points to keep (default: 60)
  --help                     Show this message and exit

• The tool defaults to using Ollama for analysis, which is free but requires local installation
• OpenAI mode provides more detailed analysis but requires an API key and has associated costs
• Adjust update frequency based on your system's performance and monitoring needs

• Experimental support for Windows systems
• Update frequency might need adjustment on slower systems
• Some process names may be truncated in the display

This project is in beta, and we welcome contributions! Please feel free to:
