&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Update:&lt;/b&gt; The service is defunct. The code for it was only on perlmonk.org, which now seems to be down for the count. Please disregard the below. My regrets to all.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr/&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;New Service: Thread Watcher&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
In response to many requests throughout history, including but almost certainly not limited to the following &amp;mdash;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt; [id://2799] &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; [id://57417] &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; [id://69625] &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; [id://132218] &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; [id://167486] &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; [id://242984] &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; [id://272905] &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; [id://293194] &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; [id://293688] &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; [id://422995] &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; [id://453922] &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; [id://467090] &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; [id://553377] &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
I have created a thread [watcher] service.
(Note - it does not implement every feature of every request in the above-cited threads.)
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Its public interface is implemented entirely via 
[id://17534|private messaging].&lt;br/&gt;
You send commands to the service via
&lt;pre&gt;
    [/msg] [watcher] ....
&lt;/pre&gt;
and [watcher] sends responses to you in your [id://419625|message inbox].
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Full documentation for the service should always be available on [watcher]'s homenode.
This service is still quite new, and will probably be undergoing significant development in the coming months.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
This is not an official service of PerlMonks. It is hosted off site.
All comments, questions, suggestions, and complaints about it should be directed to [jdporter|me].
Being hosted on [http://jdporter.perlmonk.org/|perlmonk.org], there is no guarantee that it will be around forever. Please do not use [watcher] while operating heavy machinery.
&lt;/p&gt;
