Can I run it in the background while I code?

Yes, the skill includes a background monitor script that can track resource usage over a specific duration and provide a trend report at the end of your session.

How does Claude Monitor help with Claude Code lag?

It runs a health check script that analyzes system resources and network latency in three seconds, identifying if the bottleneck is your local hardware, your internet, or the API.

Will it automatically close my programs to save RAM?

Claude Monitor identifies resource-heavy processes and suggests actions, but it will never close a process without your explicit permission.

Does it require any API keys to function?

No, Claude Monitor uses local Python scripts and system utilities like psutil to diagnose performance without needing external API authentication.
