What is Cockpit HUD?

Cockpit is a lightweight, purely native productivity heads-up display (HUD) engineered for macOS and iPadOS. Instead of relying on heavy Electron dashboards or third-party cloud servers, Cockpit runs directly on Apple Silicon with zero telemetry.

It bridges a macOS menu bar daemon with an active iPad desk display over high-speed USB-C or local Wi-Fi using Apple’s Network.framework with peer-to-peer encryption.

Key Features: • Day Dial & Timeline: Integrates local macOS Calendar and Notion tasks into a unified daily ring that flags scheduling clashes. • Contextual Action Keys: Adaptive shortcuts that dynamically adjust based on the frontmost Mac application (Xcode, Safari, Terminal, Notion, Finder). • Signals Triage: Quick triage queue for incoming Mail and messages so you handle what matters without context switching. • System Vitals & Focus: Real-time monitoring of local services, deep-work Pomodoro timers, and macOS Focus modes. • Zero-Cloud & 100% Private: All processing and sync remain strictly local on your own hardware.

Installation: Installable directly via Homebrew (brew install --cask Yvsleyen00941/tap/cockpit) or as a standalone binary download from the official website.
