What's shipped, what's new, and what's coming.

v0.1.0 Beta Candidate
Unreleased · 2026

Beta candidate in preparation. Core monitoring is functional and actively used in production homelab setups, but public artifacts, checksums, signing/notarization, and store packaging are still being validated. APIs and config format may have minor breaking changes before v1.0.

Added

  • Go backend with full agent lifecycle management
  • Watcher engine — HTTP, system metrics, log files, syslog, OTLP, Prometheus, Grafana, visual/image sources
  • Rule engine — expression-based conditions, trend detection, LLM-driven anomaly detection, cooldowns
  • Action engine — webhooks with templates + retry, native notifications, snapshots
  • Pipeline executor — detect → analyze → act → validate → close with human approval gates
  • Tiered starter job catalog — disk, CPU, memory, ports, process health, SSL expiry, log patterns, and more by tier
  • Meta-agent — self-monitoring health, auto-tune resource budgets
  • SQLite data store with TTL retention, FIFO eviction, snapshot compaction
  • REST API — 20+ endpoints (watchers, rules, snapshots, incidents, jobs, models, chat, license)
  • Ask Wasper — AI chat with local Ollama integration
  • Eyes — headless browser screenshot monitoring via go-rod, DOM text grounding
  • AI Advisor boards — Pulse, Health, Eyes, Automation, Tuning
  • Builder — drag-and-drop workflow canvas with dry-run and approval gates
  • LLM benchmark suite — compare models against real Waspen tasks
  • Model manager — list and pull Ollama models from the UI
  • Ed25519 offline license verification — zero phone-home
  • Electron + React desktop app — macOS (DMG), Windows (installer)
  • Tray app with native notifications (actionable where supported)
  • Local App Lock — passphrase protection for sensitive actions
  • Waggles bridge — STING ChatOps integration for Slack/Teams/Discord alerts
  • Setup portability — import/export Waspers, rules, Eyes, jobs (secrets excluded)
  • Backup and diagnostics export
  • Dark/light mode with persistent preference
  • Settings search
  • Developer tools page (hidden unless Developer Mode is enabled)
  • Docker Compose deployment profile for server preview
  • Systemd unit planning for server mode
  • Demo data seeder script (scripts/demo.sh seed)

  • Waspen-Server repo scaffold — Pro/Enterprise Linux control-plane preview
  • waspen-cli repo scaffold — CLI companion preview (health, version, watchers, incidents, refresh)

Architecture

  • Go backend binary is small and local-first; desktop installers are separate Electron artifacts
  • SQLite embedded (modernc, pure Go — no CGo required)
  • AI work scheduler prevents model contention and memory spikes
  • Snapshot compaction — keeps hourly/daily/weekly summaries after raw data expires
  • Three-tier offline licensing: Free (built-in) / Pro / Enterprise
Roadmap Planned

  • Waspen-Server Enterprise — fleet enrollment, OIDC, PostgreSQL, S3
  • waspen-cli v1 — stable, ship with Pro license
  • Work page — personal webhooks, file watchers, and update feeds
  • OCR fallback for canvas/image-only dashboards
  • Log reference connectors — bounded log query and tool connector design
  • Voice and audio AI integrations (Wasper Living AI ecosystem, longer term)
