Why is this running? Trace process, port, container or file

36 followers

ps, top and lsof tell you what is running. witr tells you why. Point it at a process, PID, port, container or file and it traces the chain that explains it - systemd, supervisor, shell or cron - plus who started it, when, from where, and the warnings worth knowing. Run it bare for an interactive TUI with Processes, Ports, Containers and Locks tabs. Or script it: --short for a one-line chain, --json with real exit codes. One static Go binary for Linux, macOS, Windows and BSD.
