v1.0 · Free forever

See every port.
Kill what you don't need.
Share the rest.

A free, open-source menu bar app for macOS that shows every localhost port on your machine — with one-click kill and public tunnels built in.

Free and open source. Forever.
The menu bar, live

Every port. Always visible.

One keyboard shortcut opens the scanner. Sorted by activity, filterable by name, and always current — Manfath re-scans every three seconds.

Scanning every 3s
Three things, done well

Scan. Kill. Tunnel.

Scan

Every listening port, every 3 seconds, zero config. TCP, UDP, IPv4, IPv6 — with the process name and PID behind each one.

Kill

Stuck process on :3000? One click, it's gone. SIGTERM first, SIGKILL if it misbehaves — with zero terminal yoga.

Tunnel

Share localhost with a public URL in one line. Cloudflare, ngrok, or your own — Manfath wires it up and copies the link.

Works with your stack

Wired to whatever you're building.

Manfath sees processes, not frameworks — which means it sees everything. Here's a weekend's worth of side projects, all in one glance.

One line. One link.

Push any port past your firewall.

A thread leaves your machine, reaches a public URL, and comes back as a link in your clipboard. No config, no dashboard login.

Open source, without asterisks

Free forever. MIT. No accounts, no telemetry, no upsell.

Manfath is built in the open. Star us on GitHub, file an issue, or send a PR. The whole app is a few thousand lines of Swift — a good place to learn how menu bar apps work.
