Woke up at 6 AM. Couldn't sleep. By 11 AM I'd shipped four things that weren't even on this week's list.
That's what happens when the grind doesn't wait for the official plan. Here's what got done before lunch:
- "First Setup & Drivers" menu — fully built and already showing real data
- Quick Actions panel — Device Manager, Services, System Info, MSConfig, one click away
- hck_GPT now shows exact timestamps on every message — no more vague "a while ago"
process_library.pygot deeper, and hover tooltips work everywhere now (dashboard + AI chat)
I also recorded the first proper video tour of the whole app (1:15) — the first time PC Workman has a real walkthrough.
The actual plan for this week
- Dashboard button redesign — they work, but they still look like 2015.
- System cleanup utilities — temp files, browser cache, logs, a startup manager with safe toggles.
- Complete the "My PC" health tab — right now it's pretty colours and zero real data. This week it becomes useful.
- TURBO — auto RAM flush above 75%. Researching what the big cleaners actually do under the hood.
v1.7.1 is already live, 17 issues on the roadmap, Microsoft Store still targeted for Q4 2026. The biggest weekly scope I've ever committed to — Friday is going to be interesting.
What are you building this week?
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.
