More Info

ANRM

ANRM is a compact Unix VS Code monitor for a running C++ process, with CPU, memory, NVIDIA GPU, VRAM, trend charts, and diagnostics.

The name is a small hint that this tool is focused on runtime visibility rather than traditional source-code debugging.

Changes in 1.0 Release

  • Slimmer metric cards and charts.
  • A dark grid chart inspired by Task Manager, but more modern.
  • Monitor appears in its own ANRM Activity Bar tab.
  • Added ANRM: Focus Sidebar View.
  • Added Marketplace packaging metadata and .vscodeignore for cleaner VSIX packages.

The monitor is a Webview view in the ANRM Activity Bar container, not an editor tab or Bottom Panel.

Run:

npm install
npm run compile

Then press F5 in the extension project.

Use Ctrl+Shift+P -> ANRM: Start Monitoring.

Unix-like systems with /proc are required because process metrics are read from that filesystem. NVIDIA GPU and VRAM metrics are available when nvidia-smi is installed and accessible.
