slow-command-running

To log shell output to a file while viewing it in real-time, pipe your command through tee into a local tmp/output.log file. This captures the output simultaneously for live monitoring and later review.

The best way to save long-running command output for multiple analyses is piping the execution through tee into a local log file. This stores the results in tmp/ so you can review them without re-running expensive commands.

You can monitor slow network or API calls without losing terminal output by using tee. The command pipes output to a local log file within a tmp/ directory while still displaying the real-time stream in your shell.

Tee works with long-running CLI commands by splitting the standard output stream. It displays the live data in your terminal while simultaneously writing a copy to a specified local log file for later review.

You should save command output to a tmp directory to easily manage logs generated by tee during long-running shell executions. This isolates transient monitoring data, keeping your workspace clean for later review.

A limitation of using tee for real-time logging is that it only captures standard output streams to a local log file. It does not inherently handle complex execution states or process management for extremely slow network or API calls.
