Sentinel documentation

Sentinel collects Modalix DevKit telemetry in a background daemon, writes an atomic JSON cache, and renders that cache through terminal reports. These pages explain what every panel reports, where each value comes from, how it is calculated, and what its limitations are.

Reports and collection behavior

  • Measurement model explains collector cadence, cache history, chart semantics, thresholds, stale data, unavailable values, and reset behavior.
  • Reports and JSON export documents the cache schema and the table, export, sensors, and status commands.
  • Local agent API documents live reads and trace control over the daemon's Unix socket.
  • Capturing and comparing runs documents persistent checkpoints, the Compare Runs tab, retention, and CSV/JSON exports.
