Show HN: Sonar – A tiny CLI to see and kill whatever's running on localhost

I always have a bunch of local projects running, particularly during the weekend where I'm rarely working on one thing at a time. A big pain of mine was constantly running into port: Redis from one project blocking another, orphaned dev servers from old worktrees, Docker containers I forgot about. The usual fix is lsof -iTCP | grep ..., then figuring out what the PID actually is, then killing it. But I always forget the command, and it doesn’t really include all the information that I like.

So I built this lightweight CLI. Single binary, no dependencies. It shows everything listening on localhost with process names, Docker container info, clickable URLs etc.

Sure there are workarounds, but none that satisfied my need for a short, easily rememberable command. Also nothing really has the same satisfaction as running sonar kill 3000 — it just feels nice. I’ve already been approached by a few agent orchestration tools that have been struggling with the same thing. It's really useful when you have multiple agents running, but it's not built for just that use case, I have also find it handy when killing off all containers after a failed cleanup and so on. Also know that MCPs are dead and CLIs are the new thing in agentic coding, this might be a useful tool for Claude, particularly when a compose process exits before all containers are stopped.

Open for contributions, ideas and feedback.

Glad to hear! Have quite a few ideas in mind so keep an eye out for some updates (one of the ideas is an easy update command). There's a couple of open enhancement ideas as well. Feel free to add any or contribute.
