Monday I said this week would be big. It turned out bigger than I planned.
What shipped
- 12 new AI query types from your feedback — battery drain, performance changes, session comparison, startup safety, process info, browser-cache analysis, RAM comparison, swap analysis, USB transfer impact, network usage. All bilingual PL/EN, all reading live system data.
- DeepMonitor — a full HWMonitor-style parameter table built into PC Workman: CPU, GPU, RAM, motherboard voltages, temperatures, disk space, with current/min/max tracking. Persistent SQLite storage, snapshots every 5 minutes — the AI now has real historical data from the first message.
- Persistent metrics backend — a new
metrics_store.pywith a background thread, auto-prune and a public API for hck_GPT handlers;live_sensors.pywith 30+ thread-safe keys updated every 2 seconds. - GuideAI — Stripe installed on the platform. Needs pricing and package config. The closest it's ever been to taking money.
Great week off the keyboard too: someone from my dream company reached out after reading my AI tutorial article. CV sent. And Google's Umiejętności Jutra 3.0 certification started this week.
Not scarred this week. First time in 7 editions — everything planned got done. Everything. Okay, one scar: I had the laziest Friday energy after shipping all week and almost didn't write this post. The irony of building a discipline series and being too tired to track the discipline.
This is the project behind the post. PC Workman is a free, open-source Windows system monitor
with an offline AI assistant - everything described here is real, shipped code.
