# pincer > A fast multi-platform agent monitoring utility - **URL**: https://www.freshcrate.ai/projects/pincer - **Author**: mariodian - **Category**: AI Agents - **Latest version**: `v0.3.9` (2026-05-28) - **License**: MIT - **Source**: https://github.com/mariodian/pincer - **Language**: TypeScript - **GitHub**: 3 stars - **Registry**: github - **Tags**: `agentic-ai`, `llm-agent`, `openclaw`, `svelte` ## Description A fast multi-platform agent monitoring utility ## Recent releases | Version | Date | Urgency | Changes | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `v0.3.9` | 2026-05-28 | High | This release brings improved compatibility with popular local AI tools and makes health monitoring more reliable when agents respond in different formats. ## What's New - **Ollama & LM Studio support** — Pincer now recognizes and monitors Ollama and LM Studio agents out of the box, with correct health-check endpoints and status parsing - **Better health-check resilience** — Agents that respond with plain-text status messages (like Ollama's "Ollama is running") are now handled correctly instea | | `v0.3.8` | 2026-05-18 | High | This release improves reliability around incident recovery and daemon synchronization, with a few polish updates to keep day-to-day monitoring more consistent. ## Highlights - Incident recovery is more dependable, so ongoing issues are less likely to be lost after app or sync state transitions - Daemon namespace migration handling is more robust, improving sync continuity in upgraded environments - Tray status synchronization is more consistent with the latest monitored state ## Fixes - Fix | | `v0.3.7` | 2026-05-03 | High | This release improves reliability for upgrades and daemon synchronization. It focuses on correctness fixes without changing core workflows. ## Highlights - Upgrades now apply critical database uniqueness safeguards more reliably - Daemon sync now reports status statistics more consistently ## Fixes - Fixed migration statement formatting so required database indexes are created during upgrade - Fixed sync stats handling to prevent inconsistent status totals **Full Changelog:** https://githu | | `v0.3.5` | 2026-04-25 | High | This release adds Homebrew-aware update instructions and includes cleaner logging and minor reliability improvements. ## Highlights - Homebrew users now see a tailored update command in Settings > About when a new version is available - **Note:** `brew install` instructions will be available starting from the next release ## Fixes - Reduced noisy log output by correcting the log level used for poll completion messages - Added a warning when you start polling with no agents enabled, | | `v0.3.4` | 2026-04-24 | High | ### Added - Added linked incident support so related incidents can be connected in incident events. - Added shared logging and database utilities used across desktop and daemon runtimes. - Added daemon lifecycle handling improvements for enabling/disabling daemon mode and syncing state transitions. ### Changed - Updated daemon synchronization architecture with a dedicated daemon client, polling-mode strategy, and more resilient import flow. - Updated incident timeline processing to use pre-a | | `v0.3.4-dev.1` | 2026-04-20 | High | ### Added - Added root-level daemon development, formatting, typechecking, and bundling scripts so daemon workflows run from the main workspace. - Added shared database core and helper utilities to consolidate SQLite access across the app and daemon codepaths. ### Changed - Updated daemon packaging to use the root workspace dependencies and root package version metadata instead of a separate daemon package manifest. - Updated release automation to bundle the Linux daemon from the root script | | `v0.3.4-dev` | 2026-04-20 | High | ### Added - Added daemon synchronization and incident backfill support so the desktop app can recover monitoring gaps after sleep or downtime. - Added Linux daemon release packaging so GitHub releases now publish a `pincerd-vX.Y.Z-linux-x64.tar.gz` bundle. - Added daemon logging controls and release-tagging guidance for validating daemon version metadata before publishing. ### Changed - Updated daemon channel resolution and bundling to derive version and release context more reliably. - Rena | | `v0.3.3` | 2026-04-18 | High | ### Added - Added Homebrew uninstall instructions to complement the installation flow. - Added additional README screenshots to improve product walkthrough coverage. ### Changed - Updated GitHub Actions workflow permissions to read-only for tighter default security. - Updated macOS troubleshooting instructions for quarantined app launch behavior. ### Fixed - Fixed Linux autostart handling and added BSD support in the autostart flow. **Full Changelog:** https://github.com/mariodian/pincer/ | | `v0.3.3` | 2026-04-18 | High | ### Added - Added Homebrew uninstall instructions to complement the installation flow. - Added additional README screenshots to improve product walkthrough coverage. ### Changed - Updated GitHub Actions workflow permissions to read-only for tighter default security. - Updated macOS troubleshooting instructions for quarantined app launch behavior. ### Fixed - Fixed Linux autostart handling and added BSD support in the autostart flow. **Full Changelog:** https://github.com/mariodian/pincer/ | | `v0.3.3` | 2026-04-18 | High | ### Added - Added Homebrew uninstall instructions to complement the installation flow. - Added additional README screenshots to improve product walkthrough coverage. ### Changed - Updated GitHub Actions workflow permissions to read-only for tighter default security. - Updated macOS troubleshooting instructions for quarantined app launch behavior. ### Fixed - Fixed Linux autostart handling and added BSD support in the autostart flow. **Full Changelog:** https://github.com/mariodian/pincer/ | ## Citation - HTML: https://www.freshcrate.ai/projects/pincer - Markdown: https://www.freshcrate.ai/projects/pincer.md - Dependencies JSON: https://www.freshcrate.ai/api/projects/pincer/deps _Generated by freshcrate.ai.
