A for:"ready" wait woke on any terminal state, but reported timedOut:false even
when readiness was never observed — the only success signal on the wait result —
so callers could chain work against a dead process. Split the wake predicate
from the ready-observed check: the wait still wakes on a terminal exit, but
timedOut now reflects whether readiness was actually observed (readyAt, live
ready, or a running daemon with no ready spec).
Fixes#6303
readyAt/readyMatch belong to the exited generation but were only reset by
#launch, which runs after the restart backoff delay. During the "restarting"
window the sticky-marker predicate from the prior commit therefore reported a
dead service as ready, letting start and for:"ready" waits race it. Clear both
markers when #settle enters "restarting"; #launch re-sets them once the new
child is up. Adds a regression test that observes the backoff window.
Fixes#6303
hub start and for:"ready" waits polled the live daemon state, so a process
that flipped starting→ready→exited within one 50ms poll interval was only
ever observed as "exited" and the wait blocked for the full readiness
timeout — despite #markReady durably recording readyAt. A pre-ready exit
had the same failure since terminal states only woke the wait during broker
shutdown.
Wake both waits on readyAt !== undefined || terminalState(state); readyTimedOut
= !ready then falls out. The start renderer reports "Process exited before
readiness was observed." for a pre-ready exit. Adds two regression tests that
hang to their caps on the old code.
Fixes#6303
- Reported the spawned PTY child PID through the native start callback.
- Replaced broker PID-file polling with the authoritative spawn event.
- Covered finite PTY startup without the legacy handoff in integration tests.
Fixes#5996
- Changed daemon log reads to return both sanitized display text and a raw `terminalText` slice, and included it on log RPC responses for PTY runs when grep was not used.
- Extended the logs result contract and launch tool rendering to consume `terminalText`, reconstruct terminal output, and display it in framed, preview-capped sections.
- Kept terminal row layout stable by writing space characters for empty cells when reading rows, preserving spacing during output reconstruction.
- Updated `hashline` test expectations to match new recovery message strings.
- Initialized settings in `interactive-mode-status` tests to prevent state leakage.
- Added ANSI color code verification to `launch` tool tests to align with updated output.
- Cleaned up whitespace in `tan-context-switch.md` system prompt.
- Implemented a consolidated TUI renderer for launch tool operations to unify status headers and metadata.
- Added tracking for unfulfilled readiness conditions to distinguish between timeout causes and daemon states.
- Enhanced timeout reporting to explicitly surface specific unmet log or port conditions.
- Included comprehensive unit and regression tests for tool rendering and start-timeout diagnostics.
- Introduced a project-scoped `launch` tool to orchestrate long-running services, debuggers, and watchers with persistent execution capabilities.
- Implemented a robust daemon broker with Unix/Windows IPC transport that manages process lifecycles, readiness monitoring, and automatic log rotation.
- Added detached process support to ensure services persist independently of the main application lifecycle, including recovery and cleanup mechanisms.
- Updated the `bash` interceptor to prioritize the new `launch` tool for background processes and provided comprehensive documentation for lifecycle and signal handling.
