SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automates the management of long-running application processes, reducing manual monitoring and misconfigurations by providing a structured workflow to start, restart, and remove services.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Bind a shell command to a persistent workflow to run servers, daemons, or TUIs
  • Auto-restart after package installation or environment changes and track status
  • Provide status visibility, port monitoring, and accessible logs for debugging
  • Use cases include starting API servers, background services, or multi-service apps during development and deployment

Quick Start

Create a workflow that runs your app in the background and verify it stays running on its configured port.

FAQPage Schema
How do I manage long-running background processes during development?

You can monitor background processes by binding a shell command to a persistent workflow, which tracks status, exposes logs, and provides port awareness for debugging across development and deployment environments.

What is the best way to auto-restart a server after package installation or environment changes?

Configuring a persistent workflow enables auto-restart after package installation or environment changes, ensuring your server process resumes automatically without manual intervention.

How do I start and monitor an API server in the background with port awareness?

Bind your API server startup shell command to a persistent workflow to run it in the background, track its status, monitor its configured port, and expose logs for debugging.

Does this workflow tool require any dependencies to run background services?

No external dependencies are required to orchestrate persistent app workflows; the tool independently manages starting, monitoring, and removing background services across development and deployment environments.

Can I bind a shell command to a persistent workflow to run daemons or TUIs?

Yes, you can bind any shell command to a persistent workflow to run daemons, TUIs, or background services, applying structured configuration, auto-restart, and status visibility.

Why use a structured workflow for removing and restarting server processes instead of manual commands?

A structured workflow reduces manual monitoring and misconfigurations by providing reliable mechanisms to start, restart, and remove server processes with automatic status tracking and log exposure.
