The GNU Shepherd is a daemon-managing daemon, meaning that it supervises the execution of system services, replacing similar functionality found in typical init systems. It provides dependency-handling through a convenient interface and is based on GNU Guile.

Inxi is a system information script that can display various things about your hardware and software to users in an IRC chatroom or support forum. It runs with the /exec command in most IRC clients.

GNU Alive sends periodic pings to a server, generally to keep a connection alive.

libpcap is an interface for user-level packet capture. It provides a portable framework for low-level network monitoring. Applications include network statistics collection, security monitoring, network debugging, etc.

Dmidecode reports information about your system's hardware as described in your system BIOS according to the SMBIOS/DMI standard. This typically includes system manufacturer, model name, serial number, BIOS version, asset tag as well as a lot of other details of varying level of interest and reliability depending on the manufacturer. This will often include usage status for the CPU sockets, expansion slots (e.g. AGP, PCI, ISA) and memory module slots, and the list of I/O ports (e.g. serial, parallel, USB).

Munge is an authentication service for creating and validating credentials. It allows a process to authenticate the UID and GID of another local or remote process within a group of hosts having common users and groups. These hosts form a security realm that is defined by a shared cryptographic key. Clients within this security realm can create and validate credentials without the use of root privileges, reserved ports, or platform-specific methods.

Shepherd-run is a script which assists in creating one-off shepherd services from the command line. It is meant to partially fill the void left by systemd-run, since GNU Guix uses GNU Shepherd as its system service manager.

The Linux Thermal Daemon helps monitor and control temperature on systems running the Linux kernel.

WakeLan broadcasts a properly formatted UDP packet across the local area network, which causes enabled computers to power on.

Resource monitor that shows usage and stats for processor, memory, disks, network and processes.
