Process Watch
Comprehensive system process monitoring. Goes beyond basic top to show:
- CPU & memory usage
- Disk I/O per process
- Network connections
- Open files & handles
- Port bindings
- Process trees
Commands
List processes
process-watch list [--sort cpu|mem|disk|name] [--limit 20]
Top resource consumers
process-watch top [--type cpu|mem|disk|net] [--limit 10]
Process details
process-watch info <pid>
# Shows: CPU, memory, open files, network connections, children, environment
Find by name
process-watch find <name>
# e.g., process-watch find chrome
Port bindings
process-watch ports [--port 3000]
# What's listening on which port?
Network connections
process-watch net [--pid <pid>] [--established]
Kill process
process-watch kill <pid> [--force]
process-watch kill --name "chrome" [--force]
Watch mode
process-watch watch [--interval 2] [--alert-cpu 80] [--alert-mem 90]
# Continuous monitoring with threshold alerts
System summary
process-watch summary
# Quick overview: load, memory, disk, top processes
Examples
# What's eating my CPU?
process-watch top --type cpu
# What's on port 3000?
process-watch ports --port 3000
# Details on a specific process

# Kill all Chrome processes
process-watch kill --name chrome
# Watch with alerts
process-watch watch --alert-cpu 90 --alert-mem 85
