## What is SlurmWatch?

Monitor your SLURM cluster jobs from anywhere — no terminal needed.

SlurmWatch connects directly to your HPC cluster via SSH and gives you a real-time overview of all your running, pending, completed, and failed jobs. Built for researchers, scientists, and HPC administrators who need to check on their compute jobs without opening a laptop.

KEY FEATURES

• Real-Time Job Monitoring — See all running and pending jobs with live status updates
• Job Details & Logs — View stdout/stderr output, resource usage, and efficiency metrics
• Array Job Support — Track array jobs with grouped task views and progress statistics
• Job Management — Cancel jobs directly from your device
• Secure Connection — SSH authentication via password or private key, stored in Keychain
• History Browser — Browse completed, cancelled, and failed jobs up to 90 days back
• Smart Log Viewer — Progress bar collapsing for clean log readability
• Resource Efficiency — CPU, memory, and time efficiency metrics at a glance

BUILT FOR RESEARCHERS

Whether you're training ML models, running bioinformatics pipelines, or simulating physics — SlurmWatch keeps you connected to your cluster. Check on your training progress from your phone. See if your batch jobs completed. Cancel a runaway process without SSH-ing in.

Works with any SLURM cluster accessible via SSH. Supports standard SLURM commands (squeue, sacct, scontrol, scancel).

PRIVACY FIRST

No tracking. No analytics. No data collection. Your credentials are stored securely in the device Keychain and never leave your device. All communication happens directly between your device and your cluster via SSH.

Free to use. Optional tips to support development.
