TLDR

• Commander is Luxor's miner management software: real-time monitoring, bulk remote commands, and automated profitability optimization for Bitcoin mining operations; now live at app.luxor.tech. 
• Intelligent Miner, Commander's automated optimization engine, runs a profitability algorithm every five minutes and dynamically adjusts power settings across your fleet based on live hashprice, energy costs, and fleet composition. Case studies in ERCOT show 8–14% more profitability compared to binary on/off curtailment strategies.
• Commander works with LuxOS firmware and stock firmware from Bitmain, MicroBT, and Canaan. 
• Commander Pro is priced at $100/MW/month or a 0.25% pool fee adder, and includes a 60-day free trial at launch, including economic curtailment features.
• Commander completes Luxor's full-stack mining experience: software (pool + fleet management) + hardware + firmware + finance + energy; all in one unified platform. 

Pain Points: Vendor Sprawl and Binary Curtailment

Running a Bitcoin mining operation at scale today typically means managing four to five separate vendors: a pool, a hardware and firmware provider, a fleet management tool, an energy or curtailment service, and a financial products desk. Each come with their own contract(s), data integrations, and support services.

This operational overhead is real, but the bigger cost is the opportunity that gets lost in between. When the fleet management tool doesn't talk to the energy platform, and the energy platform doesn't talk to the pool, operators are left making profitability decisions manually (or not making them at all).

The status-quo response to an unorchestrated high-power-price event is binary: turn machines off when power is expensive, turn them back on when it's cheap. That approach leaves money on the table. A machine running at a reduced power profile during a price spike is often more profitable than one that's been fully curtailed and is working its way back up to full hashrate. Ramp-up can take 30 to 60 minutes per event, and may require a full reboot and retune cycle. 

Key Commander Features

Commander is Luxor's miner management software. It runs on an agent-based architecture: a lightweight software agent installed on a Linux machine at your mining site connects outbound to Luxor's cloud, aggregates real-time telemetry, and executes remote commands at fleet scale. Commander is now live:

Real-Time Fleet Monitoring

Commander’s main dashboard aggregates KPIs (total hashrate, power consumption, fleetwide efficiency) alongside time-series charts and a health status breakdown. 

The Miners tab provides a sortable and filterable table of every machine across all of your sites, with machine-specific data including health & hashing status, firmware version, site position, and any unresolved errors. Operators can drill into individual views for per-machine metrics, events logs, and action history.

Bulk Remote Commands

From any filtered view of the fleet, operators can execute bulk actions across hundreds or thousands of miners simultaneously: reboot, sleep, wake up, change pool settings, set power targets, and install or update LuxOS. Bulk actions enter a queue with live progress tracking and a full audit trail in the Actions Log. Every command is logged by type, user, timestamp, and outcome, an accountability feature for enterprise-grade operations. 

Automation: Triggers and Scheduled Actions

The Automation tab lets operators define conditional rules that execute automatically when miner metrics hit defined thresholds. A trigger that reboots any miner whose maximum temperature exceeds 70°C, or sends an alert when hashrate drops below a threshold, removes that category of issue from the operator's daily attention.

The two rule types serve different operational purposes. Triggers evaluate continuously; Commander checks defined conditions at set intervals (any configured frequency) and fires the associated action the moment those conditions are met. This makes triggers the right tool for reactive monitoring: catching a miner that's running hot, flagging an unexpected hashrate drop, or automatically correcting pool settings that have drifted from their configured target. Scheduled actions work differently; they execute at a defined point in the future and can repeat on a routine cadence. These are better suited for planned operations: a daily reboot window, a weekly curtailment schedule aligned to a power contract, or a routine maintenance action that needs to run every Monday. 

Site Maps

The Site Map feature gives operators a visual representation of their facility layout. Racks and positions are mapped via CSV upload, and the interface renders a heatmap overlay across the physical layout showing hashrate, temperature, and health status per machine. For large facilities with dozens of containers or hundreds of racks, the ability to identify a thermal hotspot or locate a failing miner by its physical position (versus hunting through a table of IP addresses) is operationally significant. Operators migrating from other fleet management tools can download their existing sitemap CSV and upload it directly into Commander.

The Intelligence Layer: Intelligent Miner

Intelligent Miner is where Commander connects to live mining markets. When a site is running Commander alongside Luxor Pool and Luxor Energy, Intelligent Miner activates as an automated profitability optimization engine that runs every five minutes.

Intelligent Miner ingests spot hashprice and power prices, energy contract terms, and your site's fleet composition. From those inputs, it selects the optimal power profile for each miner in the fleet and sends remote commands automatically. When power prices go negative, Intelligent Miner overclocks. When prices spike, it progressively underclocks to protect margins. When mining is unprofitable, it executes economic curtailment, shutting down the fleet to restart when conditions recover. Case studies backtesting with historical ERCOT data shows 8–14% more profitability compared to binary curtailment strategies that simply turn machines on or off without intermediate optimization.

Three configurable penalty parameters give operators guardrails over Intelligent Miner's behavior: a transition parameter that can limit the frequency of power profile switches (reducing hardware wear & tear from constant adjustment), an overclock parameter for operators who want more conservative overclocking, and a thermal cycle parameter that prevents power-cycling machines too frequently when live market conditions are marginal. Operators can also define an exclusion list of machines to keep out of Intelligent Miner's control.

Intelligent Miner is also available to operators who are not Luxor Energy customers. Without the energy integration, this feature still provides dynamic power-profile optimization and economic curtailment based on hashprice alone (accessible at $100/MW/month or a 0.25% pool fee adder). Economic curtailment is included in Commander's base pricing.

Firmware Compatibility and Ecosystem Position

Commander does not require LuxOS. The agent supports stock Bitmain, MicroBT, and Canaan firmware alongside LuxOS, covering the majority of the global ASIC fleet. That said, LuxOS unlocks more capable integrations: Luxor's events API exposes more advanced machine-level data points (error types, state changes, thermal events) that Commander's trigger engine can consume to build more granular automations. Stock firmware provides a less comprehensive event surface.

Commander represents the final component of Luxor's full-stack mining experience. Pool, hardware, firmware, derivatives, energy, and fleet management now operate under a unified platform. Miners who were previously stitching these together now have a path to consolidation with a trusted partner.

Pricing

Commander is available in two tiers.

• Commander Lite (free) provides read-only fleet visibility: dashboard, KPIs, miners table, and basic bulk actions limited to LuxOS installation and updates.
• Commander Pro unlocks the full gamut: advanced bulk actions, automation triggers and schedules, site maps, inventory management, Intelligent Miner, REST API access, and VIP customer support. Pro is priced at $100/MW/month or a 0.25% pool fee adder.

At $100/MW/month, Commander Pro is roughly half the price of comparable competitors, and includes the energy optimization layer. All users receive a 60-day free trial of Commander Pro upon installing an agent. 

Getting Started

Commander runs on an agent installed on a Linux machine at your mining site. The machine needs to be on the same local network as your miners, with outbound TCP access to Luxor's cloud. No inbound ports are required.

Setup follows a straightforward path:

1. Create a Site in the Luxor platform — this is the digital representation of a physical facility.
2. Create an Agent — Commander will generate a unique ID and credentials for your site's agent.
3. Install the Agent on the dedicated machine at the site — Luxor's onboarding team walks through this step with new customers.
4. Verify and expand — once miners start appearing in the dashboard, validate monitoring and bulk actions on a small pilot batch before expanding to the full fleet.

Miners migrating from other fleet management tools can import existing sitemap CSVs directly.

Commander is live as of April 2026. Interested in getting started? Visit luxor.tech/commander or reach out to [email protected].
