While full-stack monitoring platforms like <a href="https://prometheus.io/">prometheus</a>, Grafana, and Zabbix excel at long-term metrics collection and alerting, there are moments when you need an immediate, at-a-glance view of system health directly in your terminal. No web interface to load, no API keys to configure, no dashboards to build. Just SSH into a machine and see everything that matters.</p>
