Prevents lingering processes and port conflicts by killing zombie dev servers, test runners, and browser instances, ensuring smooth development and testing workflows.
Run the cleanup script with --dry-run to preview targets, then execute without the flag to terminate identified processes.

To kill hung development server processes and free ports, run the cleanup script with a dry-run to preview targets, then execute it to safely terminate zombie processes associated with your current project.
To resolve port conflicts in a monorepo safely, the script auto-detects project environments by reading configuration files, ensuring it only terminates dev servers and test runners scoped to your current project.
You can manually override auto-detection by providing specific port numbers to the cleanup script, forcing targeted process termination for lingering testing tools that are not automatically found in configuration files.
To preview which zombie processes will be terminated, run the cleanup script using the dry-run flag to see a list of identified targets and their associated ports before executing actual process termination.
Testing workflows often leave hung processes from browser instances and test runners, which you can clear by running the cleanup script to terminate these specific zombie processes and prevent port conflicts.
Yes, you can clear hung test runners and browser instances in multi-project environments by running the cleanup script, which identifies and kills zombie processes related to your specific development and testing tools.
