Quick Backend Validation 

Invoke-RestMethod http://127.0.0.1:8000/health
Invoke-RestMethod http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/dashboard/meta
Invoke-RestMethod http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/system/latest

API Base Resolution Behavior

Dashboard resolves API in this order:

  1. ?api_base=... query parameter
  2. window.AUTO_DOCTOR_API_BASE or localStorage override
  3. Same-origin host/port when served over HTTP(S)
  4. Fallback probes: 127.0.0.1:8000 then localhost:8000

Common Interpretation Pattern

  • Rising CPU + falling memory + increasing event errors usually indicates process or startup pressure.
  • Repeated low disk and IO bottlenecks indicate storage pressure that remediation may not fully resolve.
