+`fluxo-rs` is a high-performance system metrics daemon and client designed specifically for Waybar. It entirely replaces standard shell scripts with a compiled Rust binary that collects data via a background polling loop and serves it over a Unix socket.
+
+With its **100% Native, Content-Based Event-Driven Architecture**, it consumes effectively 0% CPU while idle and signals Waybar to redraw *only* when the rendered UI text or icons physically change.
## Key Features
-- **Asynchronous Architecture**: Built on **Tokio**, the daemon handles concurrent IPC requests and background tasks with zero latency and minimal CPU overhead.
-- **Native Library Integrations**:
- - **Audio**: Direct `libpulse` integration for event-driven, instant volume and device updates.
- - **Bluetooth**: Native `bluer` integration for robust device monitoring.
- - **Pixel Buds Pro**: Custom native RPC implementation for real-time battery and ANC control.
- - **Network**: Native `nix` and `/proc` inspection for high-speed interface monitoring.
- - **Hyprland**: Direct IPC Unix socket communication for gamemode and animation status.
-- **Circuit Breaker (Failsafe)**: Automatically detects failing modules and enters a "Cool down" state to prevent resource waste and log spam.
-- **Multi-threaded Polling**: Decoupled subsystem threads ensure that a hang in one system (e.g., a slow GPU probe) never freezes your entire bar.
+- **100% Native Architecture**: Zero shell-outs or subprocesses. Uses `bluer` for Bluetooth, `libpulse-binding` for audio, `zbus` for MPRIS/DND, and `notify` for backlight.
+- **Content-Based Event Signaling**: `fluxo-rs` evaluates your custom configuration formats internally. It only sends a `SIGRTMIN+X` signal to Waybar if the resulting string or CSS class has actually changed, eliminating pointless re-renders from raw polling fluctuations.
+- **Zero-Latency Interactions**: Direct library bindings mean that when you change your volume or connect a Bluetooth device via the CLI, the daemon updates instantly.
+- **Circuit Breaker (Failsafe)**: Automatically detects failing modules and enters a "Cool down" state, preventing resource waste and log spam. Fallback caching keeps your bar looking clean even during brief failures.
+- **Multi-threaded Polling**: Decoupled Tokio subsystem threads ensure that a hang in one system (e.g., a slow GPU probe) never freezes your Waybar.

1. **Build**: `cargo build --release`

-3. **Daemon**: Start `fluxo-rs daemon`. It's recommended to run this as a systemd user service.

## Waybar Configuration
-To achieve zero-latency updates, use **Waybar Signals**:
+To achieve zero-latency updates and zero-polling CPU usage, set `interval: 0` on your modules and rely entirely on **Waybar Signals** mapped in your `config.toml`:
```jsonc
