Sudoless asitop alternative – CLI perf monitor for Apple Silicon

Hi. Would be happy to announce macmon, a sudoless tool for monitoring the performance of Apple Silicon processors. The program uses a private Apple API to get current metrics (just like the build-in powermetrics tool does) but does not require root privileges. Useful to use together with local LLM models to see what is currently loaded (CPU / GPU / NPU aka ANE). Or in any other tasks where is necessary to see the current load of the system. I will be glad to get feedback.
