Five alerts for runaway apps, fast memory growth, a full disk, heat and battery health, once per problem.

Alerts tell you when something needs you, once per problem, not every minute it lasts. They're part of Warashi Pro.

AlertWhen
App using a lot of CPUOne app above 80% CPU for 5 minutes in a row.
App memory growing fastOne app grows by 1 GB or more within an hour.
Startup disk almost fullLess than 10 GB free on the startup disk.
Mac running hotmacOS is slowing the Mac down to cool it.
Battery health droppingHealth below 80%, or 3 points lower than its best in the last 30 days.

Turn each one on in Settings › Alerts. The first time you do, macOS asks whether Warashi may send notifications. Alerts also open the notch for a few seconds and are listed in the window's Alerts section with the evidence, where you can mute an alert for a particular app.
