like. that's it. that's the whole vibe. a probe that catches stap the moment it's about to run something 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

no args, no drama, just a lil empty brace moment 💅

---

🎀 VALUES 🎀

• command — the command string that's gonna get run by posix_spawn (and it goes in as sh -c <str>, iykyk 😌). so whatever your probe is peeking at, that's the actual thing being spawned.
