Everything Meerkat does today

One small container watches your websites, containers, network and host, and turns it all into plain answers.

Answers, not dashboards

Every page opens with a plain sentence: “2 problems need attention”, “7 of 8 sites up”. The numbers come after.

Since your last visit

Open Meerkat after a day away and see exactly what happened: outages, recoveries, crashed containers and automatic repairs.

Fix it from the alert

Problems come with the button that fixes them: start a crashed container, open the failing site, silence alerts for an hour.

Docker events and auto-heal

Get told when containers die. Meerkat restarts the ones that crashed, and leaves alone the ones you stopped on purpose.

Network failover awareness

Ethernet and Wi-Fi state, default-route changes and internet reachability, shown as a simple connection path.

Website and service checks

HTTP status, latency, redirects and keyword checks with heartbeat bars, uptime, average and p95 response time.

Host health

CPU, memory, disk and CPU temperature with thresholds, durations and cooldowns so you only hear about real problems.

Two-way Telegram

Quiet, state-change-only alerts, plus /status, /docker, /restart and /silence from your phone. Stale commands are ignored safely.

Built for your phone

Bottom tabs, bottom sheets and 44px touch targets. Install it to your home screen and check your lab from anywhere.

Fast for experts

⌘K command palette, g-shortcuts, Prometheus /metrics and a REST API. Calm for beginners, quick for power users.

Private and secure by default

No telemetry, no external requests from the dashboard, and every action protected by a token generated on first start.

Accessible

WCAG 2.2 AA, checked automatically on every page. Status is never shown by color alone.

Roadmap

Coming next

These are planned and tracked in the public roadmap. Many are good first issues if you want to help build them.

Offline alert outbox Planned

Alerts are stored and retried during internet outages, then summarized in one digest when you are back online.

Power-cut forensics Planned

On boot, Meerkat tells you whether the host crashed, rebooted or lost power, and for how long.

Off-site Sentinel Planned

A tiny watcher outside your home that alerts you when your whole lab goes dark.
