## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

snitch is a small terminal network-connection inspector that presents ss/netstat-style information through a friendlier TUI or formatted tables.

### Projektgeschichte

The project appeared publicly on GitHub in 2025. Its README positions it as a human-friendly replacement or companion for classic socket-inspection commands, with interactive and one-shot modes rather than a daemon or capture engine.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

The official README documents installation through Homebrew, Go, nixpkgs, Nix flakes, Home Manager, the Arch AUR, shell installer, GitHub releases, and container images. That packaging breadth is notable for a young terminal utility and explains why it appears quickly in package-manager catalogs.

### Wie es verwendet wird

Typical usage is launching `snitch` for a live TUI, or running `snitch ls` for a styled or plain table of current TCP/UDP connections. The README documents filters for listening, established, TCP, UDP, refresh intervals, search, sorting, process watching, and process killing.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

snitch is package-nerd friendly because it modernizes a familiar Unix workflow without needing privileged packet capture: the Docker notes emphasize host network/PID namespace access and `/proc/net/*` rather than CAP_NET_ADMIN or CAP_NET_RAW. Its Nix and Home Manager support also makes it attractive to users who treat CLI tools as declarative environment components.

### Zeitleiste

- 2025: Public GitHub repository created.
- 2025: README documents Homebrew and nixpkgs packaging along with Go, Nix flake, AUR, release binaries, and container installs.

### Related projects

- snitch is explicitly framed against `ss` and `netstat`, with a user experience closer to modern TUI system monitors.
