Install and configure lm_sensors. Then cpu temp will show up in $sensors or other TUI programs
btop shows it and a ton of other info too.
Psensor is a graphical widget on top of lm_sensors that's shows constantly updated temp/fan/usage info. It's similar to HWMonitor on Windows.
Can you explain a bit more? Temp sensor info is already available anywhere.
then I don't know how to use it? on debian 12.11, what command should I use to see cpu temperature? or is there a gui?
htop displays the cpu temperature, if you configure it to do so.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
