# Kaze - Future Ideas & Enhancements

## 1. Style & Theme Options

### Terminal Theme Enhancements
- **ASCII art/box drawing characters**: Use `┌─┐│└┘` for group borders instead of CSS borders
- **Terminal-style status indicators**: Replace colored dots with `[✓]` `[!]` `[✗]` text symbols
- **Command-line feel**: Add a terminal prompt aesthetic to the header (e.g., `user@kaze:~$`)
- **Blinking cursor**: Add a subtle cursor effect somewhere for extra terminal authenticity
- **Monospace badge styling**: Make SSL days, status badges look more terminal-like

## 2. UI/UX Enhancements

### Visual Improvements
- ASCII box drawing for cleaner section separation
- Terminal symbols for better status visualization
- More authentic terminal experience with shell-like elements
- Responsive design improvements for mobile/tablet

### Interactive Features
- Keyboard shortcuts for navigation
- Bulk actions on monitors
- Quick status overview in browser tab title

## 3. Functional Features

### Monitoring
- API endpoints for programmatic access
- Export/download status reports
- Custom alert thresholds per monitor
- Historical data visualization
- Response time graphs/charts
- Uptime trends and analytics

### Performance Optimizations
- **Page caching**: Cache rendered status page for a few seconds to reduce database load
- **Reduce tick count**: Make tick count configurable per deployment or auto-adjust based on load

### Notifications & Alerts
- Webhook support for status changes
- Email notifications
- Slack/Discord integration
- Custom alert rules per monitor
- Alert escalation policies

### Monitor Types
- Custom script/command execution
- WebSocket monitoring

### Gemini Protocol Enhancements
- **TOFU (Trust On First Use)**: Implement certificate fingerprint tracking for Gemini monitors
  - Store certificate fingerprint on first successful connection
  - Alert if certificate changes (potential MITM or legitimate cert renewal)
  - Option to accept new certificate and update stored fingerprint
  - Common pattern in Gemini clients, reduces false positives from self-signed certs
  - Particularly useful since self-signed certificates are the norm in Geminispace

## 4. Configuration & Management

### Config Enhancements
- Web UI for configuration management
- Monitor templates for common services
- Group-level configuration inheritance
- Environment variable substitution in config

### Data & Storage
- Multiple database backend support (PostgreSQL, MySQL)
- Data retention policies
- Automated backups
- Data export in multiple formats (CSV, JSON)
- Metrics aggregation and rollup

### Security & Access
- API authentication/authorization
- Read-only mode for public status pages
- Custom branding options
- Password-protected status pages
- IP whitelist/blacklist

### Advanced Features
- Multi-region monitoring
- Distributed monitoring agents
- Maintenance windows
- SLA tracking and reporting
- Custom status page domains
- Embed widgets for external sites

## Implementation Priority

Priority levels to consider:
- **High**: Core functionality improvements, critical UX issues
- **Medium**: Nice-to-have features that enhance usability
- **Low**: Experimental or niche features
