gops is a command-line tool from Google that lists all Go processes running on a system and diagnoses them. Processes that embed the gops agent expose extra diagnostics such as stack traces, memory stats, CPU usage, and Go version.
Use cases
- list all Go processes running on my machine
- get a stack trace of a running Go program
- check memory and CPU usage of a Go process
- find which Go version a binary was built with
- capture heap and CPU profiles from a live Go process
- diagnose a hung Go application in production
When to choose
- you operate or debug Go applications on a system
- you want lightweight runtime diagnostics without a full APM setup
- you need quick stack, memory, or profile inspection of Go processes
When to avoid
- you need to diagnose non-Go processes
- you require long-term metrics storage, dashboards, or alerting
- you cannot modify the target program to embed the agent and need deep diagnostics
