o7 Debrief
Commander Mission Debrief
A local-first Windows app that turns your Elite Dangerous journal into a single self-contained mission debrief. Every figure traces back to a real journal field. Nothing is estimated, inferred or padded.
Windows 10 and 11 · runs quietly from the system tray
What it does
Live tray watcher
Follows the active journal from the system tray and generates a debrief automatically when you shut the game down.
Debrief any time
Cold one-shot mode reports your last session or your whole history to date, even if the app was not running while you played.
Real numbers only
Every credit, jump and scan maps to a real entry in your journal, so the figures are verifiable and never guessed, inferred or padded.
Self-contained report
A debrief is one self-contained file you can open in any browser or keep, plus a text version ready to paste onto Discord or Reddit.
Honest rank reporting
Tier-ups show at once and fractional rank percentages settle at the next launch, because the journal only snapshots progress at startup.
Your ship, tracked
The header names your current ship and its type. Every swap or purchase is also logged as a session event, from the ship you left to the one you boarded.
Check for updates
An optional tray entry asks GitHub whether a newer release exists and opens the releases page when one does. It never downloads or runs anything for you.
Local-first
No cloud, no account, no telemetry. Your journal never leaves your machine and the app needs no administrator rights to install.
