## What is RelayPulse?

RelayPulse puts your server fleet in your pocket.

SEE EVERY SERVER AT A GLANCE
One screen shows the whole fleet: online, warning, stale and offline counts, plus total bandwidth. Each card carries what matters - the service you watch, connections, download and upload, CPU, RAM and disk.

KNOW WHEN SOMETHING IS WRONG, NOT ONLY WHEN IT IS DOWN
A server can answer while the service that matters has stopped. RelayPulse checks the systemd service you choose - a web server, a database, containers, a relay, a node - and the ports it should listen on, so you find out while it is still fixable.

FLEET HEALTH
A dedicated view ranks what needs attention right now and lists the busiest servers, so a hundred machines stay readable.

REAL TOOLS, NOT JUST CHARTS
Read service logs, see the top processes and disk usage, check the agent endpoint - over SSH, straight from the phone. Nothing runs until you confirm it.

NO AGENT REQUIRED
Add a server with its address and your SSH key or the server's password, and RelayPulse reads it directly. Nothing is installed on the server. An optional open-source metrics agent gives faster readings for large fleets.

YOUR KEYS STAY ON YOUR PHONE
Log in with an SSH key or with the server's own password, such as the root password from your VPS provider - the same choices as RelayPulse on the Mac. Create a key on the device and install it with one tap, or paste your own. Keys and passwords stay in the iOS Keychain. No accounts, no server of ours, no analytics, no ads.

OPTIONAL AI DIAGNOSIS
Bring your own OpenAI or Anthropic key and let the app summarise what went wrong and suggest the fix. Off by default. The key is stored in the iOS Keychain and sent only to the provider you chose, together with the error and the log lines it needs. The app never runs a command on its own.

FOR RELAY OPERATORS
Running Anyone Protocol relays? RelayPulse recognises them and adds relay tools - Nyx and the relay configuration - to those servers only.

TRY IT FIRST
Tap "Try Demo Fleet" on the first screen to explore the app with a sample fleet before adding your own servers. It is labelled as demo on every screen, and no server is contacted while it is on.

FREE FOR A SMALL FLEET
Monitor up to 3 servers free, with no feature withheld and nothing that expires. One purchase lifts the limit for your whole fleet.

WHAT IT WORKS WITH
Linux servers you administer yourself, reachable over SSH, with python3 installed - standard on Ubuntu, Debian and most distributions.

RelayPulse is an independent tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by the Anyone Protocol project.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.13 — 2026-10-02

Two instances on one server are now told apart.

If a server runs a second instance of the watched service, add it with the new optional "Instance" field. Each instance gets its own card, status and connection count, and Nyx, logs, config editing and fix commands go to that instance instead of the first one.

Importing a fleet file without agent tokens no longer leaves most servers showing a warning for half an hour: missing tokens are read over SSH on the next refresh.

### 1.0.12 — 2026-09-28

A relay that is running is no longer reported as down.

The app used to judge a relay only by whether it could reach the server over SSH or the metrics agent. Both measure access to the machine, not the relay itself, so a server with a stuck SSH daemon was shown as offline and sent a false alert while the relay was running normally and carrying traffic.

The app now asks the relay directly before raising an alarm.

### 1.0.11 — 2026-09-26

When many servers go down at once but your internet works, RelayPulse now raises the alarm instead of leaving them "Pending". The summary also counts servers still waiting for a first reading.

### 1.0.10 — 2026-09-25

- Server cards fill in within seconds after opening the app: each reading shows as soon as it arrives, and one slow or unreachable server no longer holds up the rest.
- Mbps and CPU appear about 20 seconds after opening, instead of after two minutes.
- Pull-to-refresh no longer shows "Network problem here" and pauses readings.
- Switching back to the app no longer reconnects to every server; readings continue on their normal schedule. A fresh launch still reads at once.
- AI diagnosis now works for any Linux server, and the fix commands act on the services you watch (Settings > What counts as "up") instead of relay services only.
- A refused or empty AI key now says so in plain words.

### 1.0.9 — 2026-09-25

- Log in with the server's password as well as an SSH key, the same as on the Mac. Open a server, fill in Password under SSH - the key is tried first, the password stays in the Keychain.
- Works with any Linux server: choose the service to watch, and the phone reads servers directly over SSH - no agent needed. Servers with the RelayPulse agent keep using it, and a changed agent token is fixed automatically over SSH.
- Create an SSH key on the phone and install it on a server with its password.
- New Help, under Settings on the home screen: first steps, and every setting, field and tool explained in a sentence or two. The first screen now shows the three steps to add a server.
- Relay tools (Nyx, relay configuration) now appear only on servers that run relay software.
- Restore Purchases now says what it found, and one purchase unlocks both iPhone and Mac.
- Fixes: English text on the lock screen and in Shortcuts, a network warning shown over demo data, and servers without a watched service no longer shown as a warning.
