Commands

Monitoring

`start`

Start the system monitoring daemon

Usage:

ai-monitor start [OPTIONS]

Options:

-i, --interval <SECONDS>: How often the monitor re-checks the system, in seconds
-s, --threshold <SCORE>: Security score (1 to 100) below which the monitor raises an alert
-d, --daemon: Install the systemd unit if missing and run under systemd instead of in this shell. Requires root
--json: Emit the start result as a JSON envelope

Examples:

ai-monitor start

ai-monitor start --interval 60

ai-monitor start --interval 60 --threshold 80

sudo ai-monitor start --daemon

`status`

Show current monitor status and statistics

Usage:

ai-monitor status [--verbose] [--json]

Options:

--verbose: Also report database statistics and which monitors (VPN, Tor, DNS, security) are enabled
--json: Emit status, message, is_running, active_suggestions, last_check and config as a JSON envelope

Examples:

ai-monitor status

ai-monitor status --verbose

ai-monitor status --json

Service Management

`service`

Manage the ai-monitor systemd service lifecycle

Usage:

ai-monitor service <ACTION>

Options:

<ACTION>: install (write the unit file), uninstall (stop, disable and remove it), enable (start at boot), disable (do not start at boot), status (read-only). Everything except status requires root
--force: With 'install': overwrite a unit file that is not recognized as ai-monitor's own output (e.g. an administrator-customized unit). Ignored by other actions
--json: Emit the action result as a JSON envelope

Examples:

sudo ai-monitor service install

sudo ai-monitor service install --force

sudo ai-monitor service enable

ai-monitor service status

sudo ai-monitor service disable

sudo ai-monitor service uninstall

Suggestions

`suggestions`

List and manage proactive suggestions

Usage:

ai-monitor suggestions [OPTIONS]

Options:

-c, --category <CATEGORY>: Show only one category: security, network, recovery or optimization
-r, --resolve <ID>: Mark the suggestion with this ID as resolved. Write operation, needs a prior online-auth login
-d, --dismiss <ID>: Mark the suggestion with this ID as dismissed. Write operation, needs a prior online-auth login
--cleanup: Delete old inactive suggestions from the database. Write operation, needs a prior online-auth login
--json: Emit the suggestion list or the write result as a JSON envelope

Examples:

ai-monitor suggestions

ai-monitor suggestions --json

ai-monitor suggestions --category security

ai-monitor suggestions --resolve 1

ai-monitor suggestions --dismiss 2

ai-monitor suggestions --cleanup

Operational Scenarios

Scenario-oriented workflows generated from the binary's built-in -e --json examples.

Scenario 1: Basic Usage

Look at what the monitor currently knows: is it running, and what has it suggested.

Step 1: Show whether the monitor is running and how many suggestions are open

ai-monitor status

Expected Output: 'Monitor Status: running' or 'stopped', then active suggestions, last check, check interval and security threshold

Step 2: Same status as a JSON envelope for the dashboard or a script

ai-monitor status --json

Expected Output: Envelope with status, message, is_running, active_suggestions, last_check and config{check_interval_seconds, security_threshold}

Step 3: Add the SQLite database stats and which monitors are enabled

ai-monitor status --verbose

Expected Output: The plain status block plus a Database section (total size, pages) and a Monitoring section (VPN, Tor, DNS, Security enabled or disabled)

Note

--verbose adds database{page_count, page_size, freelist_count, total_size_bytes, unused_bytes} and monitoring{vpn_enabled, tor_enabled, dns_enabled, security_enabled} to the JSON form.

Step 4: List every open proactive suggestion

ai-monitor suggestions

Expected Output: One line per active suggestion with its ID, category and message, or a note that there are none

Step 5: List open suggestions as JSON

ai-monitor suggestions --json

Expected Output: Envelope with the suggestion array and its metadata

Step 6: Run the monitoring loop in this terminal (not as a service)

ai-monitor start

Expected Output: The monitor starts with a 30 second interval and a security threshold of 70, then keeps checking until you stop it

Note

Foreground run. Use `service` or `start --daemon` if you want it to survive the shell.

Scenario 2: Tuning the Monitor

Change how often the monitor checks the system and how low the security score has to drop before it raises an alert.

Step 1: Check every 60 seconds and alert below a security score of 80

ai-monitor start --interval 60 --threshold 80

Expected Output: The monitor starts and reports the interval and threshold it is using

Note

--interval is in seconds (default 30). --threshold is a security score of 1 to 100 (default 70). Short forms are -i and -s.

Step 2: Start a tuned foreground monitor and capture the config as JSON

ai-monitor start --interval 60 --threshold 80 --json

Expected Output: Envelope echoing the interval and security threshold actually applied

Step 3: Only look at security suggestions

ai-monitor suggestions --category security

Expected Output: The active suggestions whose category is security

Note

--category accepts exactly: security, network, recovery, optimization. Anything else is rejected by clap.

Step 4: Only look at network suggestions

ai-monitor suggestions --category network

Expected Output: The active suggestions whose category is network

Step 5: Filtered suggestions as JSON for automation

ai-monitor suggestions --category security --json

Expected Output: Envelope with only the security-category suggestions

Scenario 3: Service Management

Run the monitor as a systemd unit so it survives logout and reboot. The unit file is generated at install time with the real binary path.

Step 1: Install the unit if needed and start the monitor under systemd

sudo ai-monitor start --daemon

Expected Output: The service is installed (first run only), started, and confirmed active

Note

Needs root: it writes the unit file and calls systemctl. Without sudo it fails with 'This operation requires root privileges.'

Step 2: Only write the systemd unit file, do not start it

sudo ai-monitor service install

Expected Output: Service installed successfully

Note

Needs root.

Step 3: Start the monitor automatically on every boot

sudo ai-monitor service enable

Expected Output: Service enabled successfully

Note

Needs root. Install the service first, enable only creates the boot link.

Step 4: Stop the monitor from starting at boot, leave it installed

sudo ai-monitor service disable

Expected Output: Service disabled successfully

Note

Needs root. A currently running instance keeps running until it is stopped.

Step 5: Check whether the service is installed, active and enabled

ai-monitor service status

Expected Output: installed true or false, plus the systemd active and enabled state and MainPID, ActiveEnterTimestamp, MemoryCurrent

Note

The only service action that does not need root.

Step 6: Service state as JSON for the dashboard

ai-monitor service status --json

Expected Output: Envelope with installed, active, enabled and a properties map

Step 7: Stop, disable and delete the systemd unit

sudo ai-monitor service uninstall

Expected Output: Service uninstalled successfully

Note

Needs root. Destructive: the unit file is removed and the monitor stops running at boot. Collected suggestions in the database are not touched.

Scenario 4: Suggestion Maintenance

Act on suggestions: resolve one you have fixed, dismiss one you do not care about, or prune the old inactive ones.

Step 1: Mark suggestion 1 as resolved because you acted on it

ai-monitor suggestions --resolve 1

Expected Output: Suggestion 1 is marked resolved and drops out of the active list

Note

Write operation: requires a prior `online-auth` login, otherwise it exits with 'Authentication required. Please authenticate using online-auth first'. The ID comes from `ai-monitor suggestions`.

Step 2: Dismiss suggestion 2 without claiming you fixed anything

ai-monitor suggestions --dismiss 2

Expected Output: Suggestion 2 is marked dismissed and drops out of the active list

Note

Write operation: requires a prior `online-auth` login.

Step 3: Delete old inactive suggestions from the database

ai-monitor suggestions --cleanup

Expected Output: The number of cleaned up suggestions

Note

Write operation: requires a prior `online-auth` login. Irreversible: the pruned rows are deleted from the local database.

Step 4: Review the optimization suggestions before acting on them

ai-monitor suggestions --category optimization

Expected Output: The active suggestions whose category is optimization

Step 5: Review the recovery suggestions

ai-monitor suggestions --category recovery

Expected Output: The active suggestions whose category is recovery
