 # Changelog
 
+## 2025-08-28 - 2.0.0 - BREAKING CHANGE(daemon)
+Refactor daemon lifecycle and service management: remove IPC auto-spawn, add TspmServiceManager and CLI enable/disable
+
+- Do not auto-spawn the daemon from the IPC client anymore — attempts to connect will now error with instructions to start the daemon manually or enable the system service (breaking change).
+- Add TspmServiceManager to manage the daemon as a systemd service via smartdaemon (enable/disable/reload/status helpers).
+- CLI: add 'enable' and 'disable' commands to install/uninstall the daemon as a system service and add 'daemon start-service' entrypoint used by systemd.
+- CLI: improve error handling and user hints when the daemon is not running (suggests `tspm daemon start` or `tspm enable`).
+- IPC client: removed startDaemon() and related auto-reconnect/start logic; request() no longer auto-reconnects or implicitly start the daemon.
+- Export TspmServiceManager from the package index so service management is part of the public API.
+- Updated development plan/readme (readme.plan.md) to reflect the refactor toward proper SmartDaemon integration and migration notes.
+
+## 2025-08-26 - 1.8.0 - feat(daemon)
+Add real-time log streaming and pub/sub: daemon publishes per-process logs, IPC client subscribe/unsubscribe, CLI --follow streaming, and sequencing for logs
+
+- Upgrade @push.rocks/smartipc dependency to ^2.1.2
+- Daemon: initialize SmartIpc server with heartbeat and publish process logs to topic `logs.<processId>`; write PID file and start heartbeat monitoring
+- Tspm: re-emit monitor log events as 'process:log' so daemon can broadcast logs
+- ProcessWrapper: include seq and runId on IProcessLog entries and maintain nextSeq/runId (adds sequencing to logs); default log buffer size applied
+- TspmIpcClient: improved connect options (retries, timeouts, heartbeat handling), add subscribe/unsubscribe for real-time logs, and use SmartIpc.waitForServer when starting daemon
+- CLI: add --follow flag to `logs` command to stream live logs, detect sequence gaps/duplicates, and handle graceful cleanup on Ctrl+C
+- ProcessMonitor: now extends EventEmitter and re-emits process logs for upstream consumption
+- Standardized heartbeat and IPC timing defaults (heartbeatInterval: 5000ms, heartbeatTimeout: 20000ms, heartbeatInitialGracePeriodMs: 10000ms)
+
+## 2025-08-25 - 1.7.0 - feat(readme)
+Add comprehensive README with detailed usage, command reference, daemon management, architecture and development instructions
+
+- Expanded README from a short placeholder to a full documentation covering: Quick Start, Installation, Command Reference, Daemon Management, Monitoring & Information, Batch Operations, Architecture, Programmatic Usage, Advanced Features, Development, Debugging, Performance, and Legal information
+- Included usage examples and CLI command reference for start/stop/restart/delete/list/describe/logs and batch/daemon commands
+- Added human-friendly memory formatting and examples, process and daemon status outputs, and programmatic TypeScript usage snippet
+- Improved onboarding instructions: cloning, installing, testing, building, and running the project
+
 ## 2025-08-25 - 1.6.1 - fix(daemon)
 Fix smartipc integration and add daemon/ipc integration tests

+Processes:   5
+Memory:      45.2 MB
+CPU:         0.1%
+```
+
+## 🏗️ Architecture
+
+TSPM uses a three-tier architecture for maximum reliability:
+
+1. **ProcessWrapper** - Low-level process management with stream handling
+2. **ProcessMonitor** - Adds monitoring, memory limits, and auto-restart logic
+3. **Tspm Core** - High-level orchestration with configuration persistence
+
+The daemon architecture ensures your processes keep running even after you close your terminal. All process communication happens through a robust IPC (Inter-Process Communication) system.
+
+## 🎮 Programmatic Usage
+
+TSPM can also be used as a library in your Node.js applications:
+
+```typescript
+import { Tspm } from '@git.zone/tspm';
+
+const manager = new Tspm();
+
+// Start a process
+const processId = await manager.start({
+  id: 'worker',
+  name: 'Background Worker',
+  command: 'node worker.js',
+  projectDir: process.cwd(),
+  memoryLimitBytes: 512 * 1024 * 1024, // 512MB
+  autorestart: true,
+  watch: false
+});
+
+// Monitor process
+const info = await manager.getProcessInfo(processId);
+console.log(`Process ${info.id} is ${info.status}`);
+
+// Stop process
+await manager.stop(processId);
+```
+
+## 🔧 Advanced Features
+
+### Memory Limit Enforcement
+TSPM tracks memory usage including all child processes spawned by your application. When a process exceeds its memory limit, it's gracefully restarted.
+
+### Process Group Tracking
+Using `ps-tree`, TSPM monitors not just your main process but all child processes it spawns, ensuring complete cleanup on stop/restart.
+
+### Intelligent Logging
+Logs are buffered and managed efficiently, preventing memory issues from excessive output while ensuring you don't lose important information.
+
+### Graceful Shutdown
+Processes receive SIGTERM first, allowing them to clean up. After a timeout, SIGKILL ensures termination.
+
+### Configuration Persistence
+Process configurations are saved, allowing you to restart all processes after a system reboot with a single command.
+
+## 🛠️ Development
+
+```bash
+# Clone the repository
+git clone https://code.foss.global/git.zone/tspm.git
+
+# Install dependencies
+pnpm install
+
+# Run tests
+pnpm test
+
+# Build the project
+pnpm build
+
+# Start development
+pnpm start
+```
+
+## 🐛 Debugging
+
+Enable debug mode for verbose logging:
+
+```bash
+export TSPM_DEBUG=true
+tspm list
+```
+
+## 📊 Performance
+
+TSPM is designed to be lightweight and efficient:
+- Minimal CPU overhead (typically < 0.5%)
+- Small memory footprint (~30-50MB for the daemon)
+- Fast process startup and shutdown
+- Efficient log buffering and rotation
+
+## 🤝 Why TSPM?
+
+Unlike general-purpose process managers, TSPM is built specifically for the TypeScript/Node.js ecosystem:
+
+- **TypeScript First** - Written in TypeScript, for TypeScript projects
+- **ESM Native** - Full support for ES modules
+- **Developer Friendly** - Beautiful CLI output and helpful error messages
+- **Production Ready** - Battle-tested memory management and error handling
+- **No Configuration Required** - Sensible defaults that just work
+- **Modern Architecture** - Async/await throughout, no callback hell

-# TSPM Refactoring Plan: Central Daemon Architecture
+# TSPM SmartDaemon Service Management Refactor
 
-## Problem Analysis
+## Problem
+Currently TSPM auto-spawns the daemon as a detached child process, which is improper daemon management. It should use smartdaemon for all lifecycle management and never spawn processes directly.
 
-Currently, each `startAsDaemon` creates an isolated tspm instance with no coordination:
+## Solution
+Refactor to use SmartDaemon for proper systemd service integration.
 
-- Multiple daemons reading/writing same config file
+## Implementation Tasks
-- No communication between instances
-- Inconsistent process management
-- `tspm list` shows all processes but each daemon only manages its own
 
-## Proposed Architecture
+### Phase 1: Remove Auto-Spawn Behavior
+- [x] Remove spawn import from ts/classes.ipcclient.ts
+- [x] Delete startDaemon() method from IpcClient
+- [x] Update connect() to throw error when daemon not running
+- [x] Remove auto-reconnect logic from request() method
 
-### 1. Central Daemon Manager (`ts/classes.daemon.ts`)
+### Phase 2: Create Service Manager
+- [x] Create new file ts/classes.servicemanager.ts
+- [x] Implement TspmServiceManager class
+- [x] Add getOrCreateService() method
+- [x] Add enableService() method
+- [x] Add disableService() method
+- [x] Add getServiceStatus() method
 
-- Single daemon instance managing ALL processes
+### Phase 3: Update CLI Commands
-- Runs continuously in background
+- [x] Add 'enable' command to CLI
-- Uses Unix socket for IPC at `~/.tspm/tspm.sock`
+- [x] Add 'disable' command to CLI
-- Maintains single source of truth for process state
+- [x] Update 'daemon start' to work without systemd
+- [x] Add 'daemon start-service' internal command for systemd
+- [x] Update all commands to handle missing daemon gracefully
+- [x] Add proper error messages with hints
 
-### 2. IPC Communication Layer (`ts/classes.ipc.ts`)
+### Phase 4: Update Documentation
+- [x] Update help text in CLI
+- [ ] Update command descriptions
+- [x] Add service management section
 
-- **Framework**: Use `@push.rocks/smartipc` v2.0.1
+### Phase 5: Testing
-- **Server**: SmartIpc server in daemon using Unix Domain Socket
+- [x] Test enable command
-- **Client**: SmartIpc client in CLI for all operations
+- [x] Test disable command
-- **Socket Path**: `~/.tspm/tspm.sock` (Unix) or named pipe (Windows)
+- [x] Test daemon commands
-- **Protocol**: Type-safe request/response with SmartIpc's built-in patterns
+- [x] Test error handling when daemon not running
-- **Features**:
+- [x] Build and verify TypeScript compilation
-  - Automatic reconnection with exponential backoff
-  - Heartbeat monitoring for daemon health
-  - Type-safe message contracts
-- **Auto-start**: CLI starts daemon if connection fails
 
-### 3. New CLI Commands
+## Migration Notes
-
+- Users will need to run `tspm enable` once after update
-- `tspm enable` - Start central daemon using systemd/launchd
+- Existing daemon instances will stop working
-- `tspm disable` - Stop and disable central daemon
+- Documentation needs updating to explain new behavior
-- `tspm status` - Show daemon status
-- Remove `startAsDaemon` (replaced by daemon + `tspm start`)
-
-### 4. Refactored CLI (`ts/cli.ts`)
-
-All commands become daemon clients:
-
-```typescript
-// Before: Direct process management
-await tspm.start(config);
-
-// After: Send to daemon
-await ipcClient.request('start', config);
-```
-
-### 5. File Structure Changes
-
-```
-ts/
-├── classes.daemon.ts       # New: Central daemon server
-├── classes.ipc.ts          # New: IPC client/server
-├── classes.tspm.ts         # Modified: Used by daemon only
-├── cli.ts                  # Modified: Becomes thin client
-└── classes.daemonmanager.ts # New: Systemd/launchd integration
-```
-
-## Implementation Steps
-
-### Phase 1: Core Infrastructure
-
-- [ ] Add `@push.rocks/smartipc` dependency (v2.0.1)
-- [ ] Create IPC message type definitions for all operations
-- [ ] Implement daemon server with SmartIpc server
-- [ ] Create IPC client wrapper for CLI
-- [ ] Add daemon lifecycle management (enable/disable)
-
-### Phase 2: CLI Refactoring
-
-- [ ] Convert all CLI commands to SmartIpc client requests
-- [ ] Add daemon auto-start logic with connection monitoring
-- [ ] Leverage SmartIpc's built-in reconnection and error handling
-- [ ] Implement type-safe message contracts for all commands
-
-### Phase 3: Migration & Cleanup
-
-- [ ] Migrate existing config to daemon-compatible format
-- [ ] Remove `startAsDaemon` command
-- [ ] Add migration guide for users
-
-## Technical Details
-
-### IPC Implementation with SmartIpc
-
-```typescript
-// Daemon server setup
-import { SmartIpc } from '@push.rocks/smartipc';
-
-const ipcServer = SmartIpc.createServer({
-  id: 'tspm-daemon',
-  socketPath: '~/.tspm/tspm.sock', // Unix socket
-});
-
-// Message handlers with type safety
-ipcServer.onMessage<StartRequest, StartResponse>(
-  'start',
-  async (data, clientId) => {
-    const result = await tspmManager.start(data.config);
-    return { success: true, processId: result.pid };
-  },
-);
-
-// CLI client setup
-const ipcClient = SmartIpc.createClient({
-  id: 'tspm-daemon',
-  socketPath: '~/.tspm/tspm.sock',
-});
-
-// Type-safe requests
-const response = await ipcClient.request<StartRequest, StartResponse>('start', {
-  config: processConfig,
-});
-```
-
-### Message Types
-
-```typescript
-interface StartRequest {
-  config: ProcessConfig;
-}
-
-interface StartResponse {
-  success: boolean;
-  processId?: number;
-  error?: string;
-}
-```
-
-### Daemon State File
-
-`~/.tspm/daemon.state` - PID, socket path, version
-
-### Process Management
-
-Daemon maintains all ProcessMonitor instances internally, CLI never directly manages processes.
-
-## Key Benefits
-
-### Architecture Benefits
-
-- Single daemon manages all processes
-- Consistent state management
-- Efficient resource usage
-- Better process coordination
-- Proper service integration with OS
-
-### SmartIpc Advantages
-
-- **Cross-platform**: Unix sockets on Linux/macOS, named pipes on Windows
-- **Type-safe**: Full TypeScript support with generic message types
-- **Resilient**: Automatic reconnection with exponential backoff
-- **Observable**: Built-in metrics and heartbeat monitoring
-- **Performant**: Low-latency messaging with zero external dependencies
-- **Secure**: Connection limits and message size restrictions
-
-## Backwards Compatibility
-
-- Keep existing config format
-- Auto-migrate on first run
-- Provide clear upgrade instructions

-
-## Migration Path
-
-1. **Version 2.0.0-alpha**: Implement daemon with backwards compatibility
-2. **Version 2.0.0-beta**: Deprecate `startAsDaemon`, encourage daemon mode
-3. **Version 2.0.0**: Remove legacy code, daemon-only operation
-4. **Documentation**: Update all examples and guides
-
-## Security Considerations
-
-- Unix socket permissions (user-only access)
-- Validate all IPC messages
-- Rate limiting for IPC requests
-- Secure daemon shutdown mechanism
-
-## Testing Requirements
-
-- Unit tests for IPC layer
-- Integration tests for daemon lifecycle
-- Migration tests from current architecture
-- Performance tests for multiple processes
-- Stress tests for IPC communication
