OpenChamber spawns the OpenCode server as an external child binary (detached
on Unix), so a hard crash, SIGKILL, or Ctrl+C of the host before graceful
teardown could leave it running. Orphaned servers then accumulate and contend
on the shared SQLite DB, causing severe startup slowdowns.
Add a per-process registry plus a startup reaper, mirroring the pattern
OpenCode's own CLI daemon uses for its detached server:
- One file per spawned process at
~/.config/openchamber/managed-opencode/<pid>.json. Per-process files avoid
the read-modify-write clobber race between concurrent runtimes/windows that a
single shared file would suffer.
- On spawn, record the child (pid, owner pid, port, binary, host runtime).
- On graceful close/restart, delete the record.
- On startup, reap only our own, verified, genuinely-orphaned processes:
recorded by us AND still a live `opencode serve` on the recorded port AND
whose spawner is provably gone (reparented to pid 1, or recorded owner dead).
It never touches a process a live instance is using, the user's standalone
server, the official desktop app, or the TUI.
Wire it into every runtime that spawns the server:
- web/desktop via the OpenCode lifecycle (register on spawn, unregister on
close/restart, reap at startup). The restart-for-config-change flow inherits
this automatically through the same kill/spawn paths.
- VS Code carries a parity implementation (it does not bundle the web package)
that reads/writes the same registry directory and uses the same algorithm.
- Tag the actual host runtime (desktop/web/ssh-remote/vscode) for observability.
Also tighten teardown so the registry stays accurate and orphans die promptly
instead of only on the next start:
- The web server now also handles SIGHUP and SIGUSR2 (terminal close and the
nodemon restart used by dev:server:watch / dev:web:hmr).
- Electron now installs SIGINT/SIGTERM/SIGHUP handlers that run the same
background teardown as a normal quit, covering Ctrl+C on electron:dev.
External OpenCode servers (OPENCODE_SKIP_START) are intentionally excluded: we
never manage or kill processes we did not spawn.
