# Hosts: container badges and agent footprint

On a server running containers, Top processes could list another program's workers under watchfor-agent: a container's uid 999 is the host's uid 999, and the host names it after whichever account owns that number. With agent 0.9 such rows show uid 999 and a container badge, the agent's own process carries an agent badge, and the host page shows what the agent itself uses (agent 7 MB · 0.1 % CPU). A host that stopped reporting now offers the two commands to run on the server, and the plan-pause and token-rotation notes say what each agent version needs.
