Most indie devs build whatever they feel like. This week I'm building what 28 real people actually asked for.
A few weeks ago I asked a simple question on GitHub and LinkedIn: "What would you ask an AI that lives inside your system monitor?" 28 answers came back — some from the GitHub discussion, some from LinkedIn DMs. This week every single one becomes real, working code inside hck_GPT.
Questions like:
- "Which background process is eating my network?"
- "Is my SSD actually healthy?"
- "What's draining my battery right now?"
- "How does today compare to last week?"
Week 3 of Google's AI certification runs in the background while I turn these into real intents and logic.
Also fixing something embarrassing: SourceForge has been serving v1.6.3 to most people — two full releases behind. While I was writing about 9-layer routing and TURBO mode, new users were downloading an ancient version. Fixed this week.
Friday will tell the truth.
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.
