Selected thread: apps/server/src/process/providerProcesses.ts:106 —  **🩺 Stability & Availability** | **🟠 Major** | **⚡ Quick win** **Kill the recorded survivor's process group, not only the leader PID.** `spawnClaudeProcessGroup` spawns the CLI with `detached: true`, so the CLI leads its own process group. Its tool subprocesses (Bash commands, MCP servers) join that group. During normal operation, the `exit` handler kills the whole group with `signalProcessGroup`. Restart cleanup has no equivalent. Line 103 sends `SIGKILL` to `survivor.pid` only. The CLI's descendants then move to init and keep running in the worktree. That is the duplicate-work state this PR is meant to prevent on hosts without systemd. The record stores `pgid`, but no code reads it. Signaling the group is safe here. Line 98 has just confirmed that the leader is alive and that its `startTime` matches the record. While the leader exists, the kernel cannot give that PGID to a new group. Use the group only when the recorded `pgid` equals `survivor.pid` and the live identity still reports the same `pgid`. Otherwise, use the current single-PID signal. This still never infers ownership from group membership alone: the matched leader proves the group's identity. <details> <summary>Proposed fix</summary> ```diff --- "a/apps/server/src/process/providerProcesses.ts" +++ "b/apps/server/src/process/providerProcesses.ts" @@ -99,11 +99,17 @@ // Never infer ownership from argv, executable names, or group membership. // As in the ACP controller, starttime blocks reuse between observations. // Node has no pidfd_send_signal, so the final read-to-signal race remains. try { - controller.signalProcess(survivor.pid, "SIGKILL"); + const live = identity(survivor.pid); + if (live !== undefined && survivor.pgid === survivor.pid && live.pgid === survivor.pid) { + // The matched leader pins the PGID, so the group cannot be a reused one. + process.kill(-survivor.pid, "SIGKILL"); + } else { + controller.signalProcess(survivor.pid, "SIGKILL"); + } } catch (cause) { if (matches(survivor)) return yield* Effect.die(cause); } for (let attempt = 0; matches(survivor); attempt++) { if (attempt === 100) { return yield* Effect.die(new Error("Recorded provider survived restart cleanup")); ``` </details> A test with a fixture that starts a grandchild in its own group would cover this case.   <details> <summary>📝 Committable suggestion</summary> > ‼️ **IMPORTANT** > Carefully review the code before committing.

Review comment at @apps/server/src/process/providerProcesses.ts around lines 102 - 106: Update the survivor cleanup in the process-restart flow to kill the recorded process group when ownership is verified: use the live identity for survivor.pid and group signaling only when survivor.pgid equals survivor.pid and the live pgid also matches; otherwise retain the single-PID controller.signalProcess fallback. Preserve the existing error handling around this logic. After applying the fix, consider running `coderabbit review --agent` for local review.
