Preflight Checklist
Problem Statement
It is now impossible to reload settings of a running cloud code instance.
Proposed Solution
We have integrated CC in a framework with tmux and would like to reload with SIGUSR1 the theme configuration (and any other setting that is suitable) that we have changed with our tooling so that the running process picks up the new settings.json
Alternative Solutions
No response
Priority
Low - Nice to have
Feature Category
Interactive mode (TUI)
Use Case Example
When changing dark mode a script is run to send SIGUser1 to running cloud code instances, making them pick up settings that can be reloaded on the fly.
