While standard tools like ps or lsof can show you what is running, witr explains why. By pointing it at a process, PID, port, container, or file, you can trace the entire chain of command, including dependencies like systemd, shell, or cron. It reveals who started the process, when it began, and any relevant warnings you should know about. You can use the interactive TUI to explore processes and locks, or script it with flags for one-line outputs or JSON responses. It is delivered as a single static Go binary that works across Linux, macOS, Windows, and BSD.
