Dual TUI and GUI modes for network monitoring, but GlassWire already does this.

Strengths
  • •Local rules file for trust classification without cloud dependencies
  • •TUI mode works on headless servers with JSON export
  • •Process-to-IP mapping shows exactly which app connects where
Weaknesses
  • •Python-based with GTK dependency limits portability across systems
  • •No Windows or macOS support, Linux-only implementation
