nextdoctor dev

Wraps your actual dev command (default npm run dev) and shows a live memory dashboard for the whole process tree — Next.js dev spawns worker processes, so this isn't just the root PID.

In a real terminal this is a full-screen TUI — gauge, memory sparkline, per-process breakdown, and a scrolling log tail of the wrapped dev server's own output. Piped/non-TTY output (CI, | cat, log files) falls back to a plain-text renderer instead.

Options

• --threshold <mb> — warn (and optionally restart) above this many MB (default 4096)
• --interval <ms> — how often to sample (default 5000)
• --auto-restart — kill and relaunch the dev server when the threshold is hit, instead of just warning

In the dashboard

• ← / → — switch focus between apps
• r — manually restart the focused app
• q — quit
