Core Monitor is a macOS system monitor. Keep changes small, clear, and easy to review.
Use Xcode on macOS. Build the app before submitting code changes. Run relevant tests when a change touches monitoring, alerts, onboarding, or the menu bar.
- Keep commits focused.
- Avoid unrelated rewrites.
- Update docs when user-facing behavior changes.
- Add focused tests for regressions.
- Verify UI changes in the running app.
- Describe what changed.
- Include verification notes.
- Call out any runtime behavior that could not be tested.
Core Monitor is easier to maintain when improvements are steady, scoped, and verified.
AI is allowed for use in PR's and Issues, although they will receive the same checking and review process as any other PR.
