Cross-platform service catalog
Normalize containers, Kubernetes workloads, Proxmox VMs/LXCs, and systemd units into one dense dashboard grouped by host.
Open-source · MIT licensed · Homelab friendly
One pane of glass for everything running in your homelab.
Trove is a read-only service catalog for Docker, Kubernetes, Proxmox, and Linux hosts. Agents push what they see to one server, so you get health, image freshness, heartbeats, and alerts without giving a dashboard control over your infrastructure.
Read-onlyNo deploys, restarts, execs, or mutations
Push modelWorks behind NAT, VPNs, and firewalls
SQLiteSingle-file storage, automatic migrations
What it gives you
Inventory, health, freshness, and alerts. Nothing with a dangerous button.
●
Health and heartbeats
Track Docker healthchecks, Kubernetes readiness, running state, and agent staleness when a host goes quiet.
⇧
Image freshness
See which services are behind their running tag. Registry checks are batched, cached, and rate-limit aware.
✉
Alerts and digest
Webhook, Discord, ntfy, and email digest support with recovery notices, flap suppression, and transition-aware alerting.
⌘
Keyboard-driven dashboard
Fast vanilla JS UI with search, filters, details, keyboard navigation, and no frontend build pipeline to babysit.
□
Simple operations
Static binaries or containers, SQLite storage, automatic schema migrations, and tiny read-only agents.
How it works
Agents report in. The server never reaches out.
Trove's architecture is deliberately boring: local read-only agents collect state and POST full snapshots to a central server every 30 seconds.

Real dashboard
Built for the messy middle of a real homelab.
Not a toy demo with three services. Trove is designed for the normal chaos: multiple Docker hosts, K8s workloads, Proxmox machines, healthchecks, stale agents, and a few containers that definitely need an update.
