API Endpoints:
- POST /v1/process - Start a new process
- GET /v1/process - List all processes
- GET /v1/process/{id} - Get process details
- POST /v1/process/{id}/stop - Stop a process (SIGTERM)
- POST /v1/process/{id}/kill - Kill a process (SIGKILL)
- DELETE /v1/process/{id} - Delete a process and clean up logs
- GET /v1/process/{id}/logs - Read process logs (supports tail, follow via SSE)
Features:
- Log files written to ~/.local/share/sandbox-agent/processes/{id}/
- stdout.log, stderr.log, combined.log
- Process state persisted to state.json for server restart survival
- Status tracking: starting, running, stopped (with exit_code), killed
- Real-time log streaming via SSE with follow=true query param
- Environment variables and working directory support
Cleanup rules:
- Process exits naturally → logs preserved
- DELETE endpoint → logs removed
Backend changes:
- Add timestamps to log lines: [2026-01-30T12:32:45.123Z] <line>
- stdout.log and stderr.log get timestamps per line
- combined.log includes [stdout]/[stderr] prefix after timestamp
- Add strip_timestamps query param to GET /process/{id}/logs
- Use time crate with RFC3339 format for timestamps
Frontend changes:
- Add Processes tab to inspector debug panel
- Show list of processes with status badges (running/stopped/killed)
- Click to expand and view logs
- Log viewer options:
- Select stream: combined, stdout, stderr
- Toggle strip_timestamps
- Refresh logs button
- Action buttons: stop (SIGTERM), kill (SIGKILL), delete
- Auto-refresh process list every 5 seconds
