The README made me realize I just needed a simple `alias local-tcp-listeners='lsof -iTCP -sTCP:LISTEN'` in my `~/.bash_aliases` :)
replySame, not sure why a whole cli app is needed.
replyBecause it gives more context. Quite obvious if you look at the readme...
replyDevelopers are nitpicky, atleast i am and i know a lot of others that are as well. So don't underestimate the value of a nice tool with good developer experience, one that's intuitive, clean and easy to use means a lot when juggling so many things during a workday. So having a clean and light implementation to make job even easier is in my opinion worth it (and thus needed) :)

replyTrue, but as i write their are workarounds, the problem is that they are unintuitive, difficult to remember and don't provide all that much usability beyond listing. So these lack useful features like getting process stats, killing ports easily without having to remember the the pid after lsof and so on. I often have to kill multiple process at once after a failed cleanup. If you are into agentic coding, then having your agent create a profile for all the processes it stats, which it can easily kill of when finished is a lot easier for me atleast.
replySome features on the way are: next available port; wait (wait for a host to return a successful health check before proceeding - good for migrations etc.). And lots more. It's not just about listing running ports, but a tool for managing them.
But to each their own, that's what's lovely about the many options available. But if you have anything in relation to this you think is neat, feel free to open an issue. It may be able to convince you that a simple alias won't suffice.
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.
