## What It Does
- Lists Linux systemd services in a fast terminal cockpit.
- Shows state, PID, memory, restart count, and anomaly signals.
- Provides a dedicated anomaly page with severity, service, signal, and detail rows.
- Opens service status, journal output, and notable event timelines for the selected daemon.
- Flags failed units, restart storms, missing PIDs, non-success results, and high memory use.
- Provides direct service commands through `systemctl`.
