 # Changelog
 
+## 2025-08-28 - 3.0.2 - fix(daemon)
+Ensure TSPM runtime dir exists and improve daemon startup/debug output
+
+- Create ~/.tspm directory before starting the daemon to avoid missing-directory errors
+- Start daemon child process with stdio inherited when TSPM_DEBUG=true to surface startup errors during debugging
+- Add warning and troubleshooting guidance when daemon process starts but does not respond (suggest checking socket file and using TSPM_DEBUG)
+- Bump package version to 3.0.1
+
+## 2025-08-28 - 3.0.0 - BREAKING CHANGE(daemon)
+Refactor daemon and service management: remove IPC auto-spawn, add TspmServiceManager, tighten IPC/client/CLI behavior and tests
+
+- Remove automatic daemon spawn from the IPC client — clients now error with guidance and require the daemon to be started manually or enabled as a system service
+- Add TspmServiceManager to manage the daemon as a systemd service (enable/disable/reload/status)
+- Update IPC server/client to use SmartIpc.createServer/createClient with heartbeat defaults and explicit onMessage handlers
+- Daemon publishes per-process logs to topics (logs.<processId>) and re-emits ProcessMonitor logs for pub/sub
+- CLI updated: add enable/disable service commands, adjust daemon start/stop/status workflows and improve user hints when daemon is not running
+- Add/adjust integration and unit tests to cover daemon lifecycle, IPC client behavior, log streaming, heartbeat and resource reporting
+- Documentation expanded (README, readme.plan.md, changelog) to reflect the refactor and migration notes
+- Various code cleanups, formatting fixes and defensive checks across modules
+
+## 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.

 ## 🔧 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.

 ## 📊 Performance
 
 TSPM is designed to be lightweight and efficient:
+
 - Minimal CPU overhead (typically < 0.5%)
 - Small memory footprint (~30-50MB for the daemon)

-# TSPM Real-Time Log Streaming Implementation Plan
+# TSPM SmartDaemon Service Management Refactor
 
-## Overview
+## Problem
-Implementing real-time log streaming (tailing) functionality for TSPM using SmartIPC's pub/sub capabilities.
 
-## Approach: Hybrid Request + Subscribe
+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.
-1. Initial getLogs request to fetch historical logs up to current point
+
-2. Subscribe to pub/sub channel for real-time updates  
+## Solution
-3. Use sequence numbers to detect and handle gaps/duplicates
+
-4. Per-process topics for granular subscriptions
+Refactor to use SmartDaemon for proper systemd service integration.
 
 ## Implementation Tasks
 
-### Core Changes
+### Phase 1: Remove Auto-Spawn Behavior
-- [x] Update IProcessLog interface with seq and runId fields
-- [x] Add nextSeq and runId fields to ProcessWrapper class  
-- [x] Update addLog() methods to include sequencing
-- [x] Implement pub/sub publishing in daemon
 
-### IPC Client Updates  
+- [x] Remove spawn import from ts/classes.ipcclient.ts
-- [x] Add subscribe/unsubscribe methods to TspmIpcClient
+- [x] Delete startDaemon() method from IpcClient
-- [ ] Implement log streaming handler
+- [x] Update connect() to throw error when daemon not running
-- [ ] Add connection state management for subscriptions
+- [x] Remove auto-reconnect logic from request() method
 
-### CLI Enhancement
+### Phase 2: Create Service Manager
-- [x] Add --follow flag to logs command
-- [x] Implement streaming output with proper formatting
-- [x] Handle Ctrl+C gracefully to unsubscribe
 
-### Reliability Features
+- [x] Create new file ts/classes.servicemanager.ts
-- [x] Add backpressure handling (drop oldest when buffer full)
+- [x] Implement TspmServiceManager class
-- [x] Implement gap detection and recovery
+- [x] Add getOrCreateService() method
-- [x] Add process restart detection via runId
+- [x] Add enableService() method
+- [x] Add disableService() method
+- [x] Add getServiceStatus() method
 
-### Testing
+### Phase 3: Update CLI Commands
-- [x] Test basic log streaming
-- [x] Test gap recovery
-- [x] Test high-volume logging scenarios  
-- [x] Test process restart handling
 
-## Technical Details
+- [x] Add 'enable' command to CLI
+- [x] Add 'disable' command to CLI
+- [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
 
-### Sequence Numbering
+### Phase 4: Update Documentation
-- Each log entry gets incrementing seq number per process
-- runId changes on process restart
-- Client tracks lastSeq to detect gaps
 
-### Topic Structure
+- [x] Update help text in CLI
-- Format: `logs.<processId>`
+- [ ] Update command descriptions
-- Daemon publishes to topic on new log entries
+- [x] Add service management section
-- Clients subscribe to specific process topics
 
-### Backpressure Strategy
+### Phase 5: Testing
-- Circular buffer of 10,000 entries per process
+
-- Drop oldest entries when buffer full
+- [x] Test enable command
-- Client can detect gaps via sequence numbers
+- [x] Test disable command
+- [x] Test daemon commands
+- [x] Test error handling when daemon not running
+- [x] Build and verify TypeScript compilation
+
+## Migration Notes
+
+- Users will need to run `tspm enable` once after update
+- Existing daemon instances will stop working
+- Documentation needs updating to explain new behavior
