wtf is ucg-dash?

ucg-dash is a small monitoring tool for a Unifi Cloud Gateway, a type of network router made by Ubiquiti. It installs a background service on the gateway itself and serves a web page, reachable at port 38083, that shows the router's current CPU temperature, CPU usage, and memory usage. The page also draws a five minute graph for each of those three measurements and updates itself automatically, so you can watch how the gateway is performing without refreshing the page or logging into it repeatedly. According to the README, it has been tested specifically on a UCG Ultra device running firmware version 5.1.19, so it may or may not work as expected on other Unifi Cloud Gateway models or firmware versions, since the README does not say either way. To install it, you pick a directory on the gateway such as /opt, then either clone the project with Git or download and unzip a release file into that folder. After making sure the included install script is executable, you run that script and it sets up the ucg-dash service for you. The README does not describe how to uninstall it, configure the port, or customize what the dashboard shows, so those details are not covered. The README notes that most of the code was written by an AI tool, Google AI, with some manual edits and guidance from the maintainer. The README itself is quite short and does not mention a license, a supported language runtime beyond HTML for the dashboard page, or any contribution guidelines, so anyone wanting more detail than temperature and utilization graphs would need to read the source code directly.
