Probe is for use inside of Docker Containers build on the scratch image. Given the lack of any tools to do something as simple as a curl command, it is not possible to add a HEALTHCHECK to your Dockerfile. Probe provides an ultra stripped down curl command to bundle with your super slim containers.
