Description

Expose parsed information from Linux /proc files through a simple API, either as a user-space daemon or inetd service. It helps monitoring tools query system state without parsing the files directly each time.

A service exposing /proc-derived data can reveal system activity and process details. Restrict network access and logs before enabling it beyond local use.

How to run

procstatd.service
