Live Power Metering: Displays real-time wattage, voltage, and amperage per port, updating every 2 seconds.
Hardware & Port Health: Tracks lifetime port errors, resets, and monitors liquid detection (LDCM) sensors.
Advanced Insights: Offers Power Delivery (PD) contract inspection, cable resistance estimation, and DisplayPort Alt Mode lane mapping.
Developer Friendly: Includes a CLI monitor mode (whatcable βmonitor) and desktop widgets for quick tracking.

Version 0.99.3
Fixes
The charging summary no longer reads like a live measurement. “Charging well at 81W” showed the negotiated maximum the charger agreed to supply, not the watts actually flowing, which was confusing next to a wall meter. It now says “Charging well Β· up to 81W”. For live measured draw, see the menu bar watts toggle or the Pro Power Monitor. Thanks @stevetrease for the careful measurements (#317).
