Spencer Grimes 3e99780e87 Make port configurable (default 5100)
- Port now set via config.json "port" field
- Aggregator reads PORT from environment variable
- Updated all docs and scripts to use port 5100

# CLAUDE.md
This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
## Project Overview
Kao is a minimalist system status monitor designed for an old Pixel phone used as an ambient display. It uses ASCII "emotes" to represent system health instead of complex graphs.
## Architecture
**Publisher/Subscriber model:**
```
┌─────────────┐ POST /event ┌─────────────┐ GET /status ┌─────────────┐
│ Detectors │ ──────────────────▶ │ Aggregator │ ◀────────────────── │ Emote-UI │
│ (sensors) │ │ (broker) │ │ (display) │
└─────────────┘ └─────────────┘ └─────────────┘
```
- **Aggregator** (`aggregator.py`) — Flask service managing the event queue and priority logic
- **Detectors** (`detectors/*.py`) — Independent scripts monitoring system metrics
- **Emote-UI** (`index.html`) — OLED-optimized web frontend
- **Sentry** (`kao.py`) — Unified entry point managing all processes
## Quick Start
```bash
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate # or .\venv\Scripts\activate on Windows
pip install -r requirements.txt
python kao.py
```
UI available at http://localhost:5100
## Configuration
Edit `config.json` to configure detectors:
```json
{
"aggregator_url": "http://localhost:5100",
"aggregator": { "script": "aggregator.py" },
"detectors": [
{
"name": "cpu",
"enabled": true,
"script": "detectors/cpu.py",
"env": { "CHECK_INTERVAL": "30", "THRESHOLD_WARNING": "85", "THRESHOLD_CRITICAL": "95" }
}
]
}
```
## Detectors
| Detector | Script | Required Env Vars |
|----------|--------|-------------------|
| Disk Space | `detectors/disk_space.py` | — |
| CPU | `detectors/cpu.py` | — |
| Memory | `detectors/memory.py` | — |
| Service | `detectors/service.py` | `SERVICES` (comma-separated process names) |
| Network | `detectors/network.py` | `HOSTS` (comma-separated hostnames/IPs) |
All detectors support: `AGGREGATOR_URL`, `CHECK_INTERVAL`, `THRESHOLD_WARNING`, `THRESHOLD_CRITICAL`
## API Endpoints
| Endpoint | Method | Description |
|----------|--------|-------------|
| `/event` | POST | Register event: `{"id": "name", "priority": 1-4, "message": "optional", "ttl": seconds}` |
| `/clear` | POST | Clear event: `{"id": "name"}` |
| `/sleep` | POST | Enter sleep mode (for Home Assistant) |
| `/wake` | POST | Exit sleep mode |
| `/status` | GET | Current state JSON |
| `/events` | GET | List active events |
## Priority System
Lower number = higher priority. Events with a `ttl` auto-expire (heartbeat pattern).
| Priority | State | Emote | Color | Animation |
|----------|-------|-------|-------|-----------|
| 1 | Critical | `( x_x)` | Red | shaking |
| 2 | Warning | `( o_o)` | Yellow | breathing |
| 3 | Notify | `( 'o')` | Blue | popping |
| 4 | Optimal | varies | Green | varies |
## Personality System
The optimal state cycles through emotes with paired animations every 5 minutes:
| Emote | Animation | Vibe |
|-------|-----------|------|
| `( ^_^)` | breathing | calm |
| `( ᵔᴥᵔ)` | floating | dreamy |
| `(◕‿◕)` | bouncing | cheerful |
| `( ・ω・)` | swaying | curious |
| `( ˘▽˘)` | breathing | cozy |
Additional states:
- **Idle expressions** (15% chance): `( -_^)`, `( ^_~)`, `( ᵕ.ᵕ)` with blink animation
- **Recovery celebration**: `\(^o^)/` with bounce for 5 seconds after issues resolve
- **Connection lost**: `( ?.?)` gray, searching animation
- **Sleep mode**: `( -_-)zzZ` dim, very slow breathing
