consvp

ConsVP

A simple utility for watching pre-vote status on Tendermint/CometBFT chains. It will print out the current pre-vote status for each validator in the validator set. Useful for watching pre-votes during an upgrade or other network event causing a slowdown.

Similar to pvtop, but plus some miracles
