Self-hosted traces, logs and metrics that you and your agents can query
Emerged finds new products worth a look, daily — what’s new today
Dashboards keep showing healthy counts while a container is quietly recreated or stuck in a restart loop, and HomeButler reports the change itself, to you or to an agent over MCP.
HomeButler is a single Go binary that watches a server and reports only what is worth telling: containers, ports, processes and disk usage that changed, restart loops and crashes with the logs already pulled. Its "replaced" detection catches a container that was recreated but still counts the same, the gap in metrics-based monitoring. It also deploys apps through Docker Compose and manages backups, verifying restores in isolation. Three interfaces ship in the box: a JSON-friendly CLI, a web dashboard, and an MCP server for agents. No daemon, no database, MIT, 280 stars.
