Aloha gang,

Finally put in some time to build an Omarchy plugin. Omacom is backlogged on approvals, so it’s in queue.

BEAM Deck is a host-aware cockpit and real-time monitoring suite for Erlang & Elixir (BEAM/OTP) designed natively for the Omarchy Quattro desktop environment. It automatically discovers local BEAM instances, attaches agentlessly to distributed nodes, surfaces runtime health and process bottlenecks, visualizes cluster topology, and provides safe, reversible scheduler controls from the desktop status bar.

Features

  • Zero App Dependencies: No Hex packages to add to your Phoenix or Elixir apps. Core deep telemetry is agentless and uses native OTP distribution.
  • Automatic Host Census: Detects all local beam.smp processes via Linux /proc, including standard scripts, Phoenix servers, IEx sessions, and Livebooks—even with distribution disabled.
  • Deep Node Telemetry: Connect to named nodes to inspect process tables, atom usage, ports, ETS tables, run queues, and granular memory distribution (binary, atom, code, ETS, process heap).
  • Hot Process Watchdog: Spot runaway processes consuming high reductions, excessive memory, or clogged mailboxes, complete with a one-click Garbage Collection (GC) trigger.
  • Live Reversible Schedulers: Dynamically scale online normal and dirty CPU schedulers on the fly to tame CPU load. One-click Restore resets back to original startup values.
  • Intelligent Alerts: Proactive warnings for mailbox explosions, message arrival rate spikes, run queue congestion, memory saturation, and process crashes/churn.
  • Cluster Topology: Visual map of connected nodes, hidden nodes, and peers. Set directional peer contracts to detect real network splits without false alarms.
  • Deep Events (OTP 28+): Opt-in isolated tracing through temporary trace sessions. Diagnoses long GCs, scheduling lags, mailbox growth, large heaps, and busy ports without modifying your codebase.
  • 1-Click Interactive Shell: Jump straight into a connected node with a floating IEx remsh terminal via Omarchy’s terminal executor.
  • Seamless Toolchain Onboarding: If Erlang/Elixir are not installed yet, BEAM Deck guides you through a clean global setup using Mise.

Does anyone have features they’d like added?
