Tracing files accessed by command?

On Linux I can trivially use strace to trace all file access done by a command that I run from the command line. Is there anything similar for MacOS? I know you can see files that are open by a process using e.g. lsof, but that doesn’t work for a process that only runs for a few milliseconds.

MacOS app notarization failure reason support

I tried notarizing an MacOS app using a company developer account purchased from a seller on an Amazon Mac VPS.
Despite trying with different VPSs and accounts, I failed 5 times.
So, I bought a real MacBook and tried again with a new account, but there has been no result for 24 hours.
My code is not suspicious at all; it is just a sample app that prints “hello world!”.
Can anyone help with this?

Can’t figure out how to download old version of Visual Studio Code for Mac

I am trying to download Visual Studio (VS) Code, which my teacher wants us to download to do labs. I am on a Mac from 2011 that is too old to download the curent version of Visual Studio. Microsoft says you can download an older version and allegedly Visual Studio 2019 should work with my version of mac. But I have scoured the websites and online and can’t actually figure out how to download it. Do you all know where I might be able to download an older version of the program so I can do my coursework? I am on Mac 10.13.6 high sierra and cannot update the computer software any further than that version of Mac as far as I know.
