fkill-cli is a command-line tool for terminating processes across macOS, Linux, and Windows.
The tool solves the problem of needing a user-friendly way to kill processes without memorizing platform-specific commands or process identifiers. It provides an interactive UI that launches when run without arguments, allowing users to browse and select processes to terminate in a visual interface rather than typing process IDs or names directly.
The tool suits developers and system administrators who prefer an interactive approach to process management over traditional command-line flags. It works across the three major operating systems without requiring different workflows. The project maintains a related API package for programmatic use and integrates with Alfred on macOS through a separate workflow.
Work in the issue tracker is dominated by enhancement requests and funded issues, indicating active community interest in expanding the tool's capabilities.
