+- Provide a free and open-source tool under GPL
+- Do not use undocumented, third-party servers to aggregate data; no central "DZGUI" server
+- All connections go to Steam and DayZ servers directly; the tool should function in perpetuity without intermediary endpoints
+- Target Linux desktop and Steam deck specifically; not a cross-platform tool
