butcher_process 0.1.1-dev.2

Process-tree lifetime and kill primitives, so a consumer can take the process abstraction without the mutation engine.

Changelog

0.1.1-dev.2

• liveDescendants reports the live pids inside the kill boundaries a run started: the process groups it leads on POSIX, the job membership it started on Windows. Read-only accounting, so a consumer can prove a run leaked nothing without counting the whole host.
• hostProcessCount is unchanged and is documented as a diagnostic only; it cannot tell a run's descendants from anything else the machine spawns.

0.1.1-dev.1

• Automation proof: first tag-driven publish. No library change.

0.1.0

• Initial release: butcher's process-tree lifetime and kill primitives.
• ProcessInterlock owns the spawn on both platforms, so a kill reaches the whole tree in one call instead of hunting it through a process listing.
• SupervisedProcess and terminateAllSupervisedProcesses own the lifetime of a started tree.
• hostProcessCount reports the host's live process count as a diagnostic.
