Usbutil Ver 102 New -

The most anticipated "new" element is the daemon mode. Run usbutil ver 102 new --monitor to get a live terminal showing connect/disconnect events with nanosecond timestamps and the exact driver being bound.

For automation, ver 102 embeds Lua 5.4. You can now write scripts that react to USB events. Example: a script that logs every time a specific vendor ID (e.g., 0x0483 for STMicroelectronics) connects.

Examples:

usbutil list
usbutil list --json
usbutil list --filter 046d:c534

Previously, you needed to unplug physically. Now:

usbutil reset /dev/bus/usb/003/007

The reset command sends a USB port reset signaling, re-enumerating the device. The most anticipated "new" element is the daemon mode
