Description

Monitors a process tree and annotates process behavior, helping developers and administrators understand what child processes were created and how a command behaved over time. It is useful for debugging wrappers, build tools, test runners, and service supervision experiments.

Process tracing can reveal command arguments, paths, and environment details. Use care when sharing output from systems that handle credentials or private data.
