witr Trends at 19,359 Stars — 'Why Is This Running?' Traces Any Process, Port, Container or File Back to What Started It
pranshuparmar/witr took +427 stars today to reach 19,359: an Apache-2.0 Go CLI and TUI, created December 20, 2025, that answers provenance questions about running processes, listening ports, containers and open files. It is not an AI tool, but it trended today alongside a board otherwise full of agent harnesses, and that is precisely the use case — when an agent has been spawning subprocesses and background jobs in your shell for an hour, 'what started this' stops being a rhetorical question. Worth pairing with any setup that lets agents run long-lived background commands.
