 # Changelog
 
+## 2025-08-30 - 5.1.0 - feat(cli)
+Add interactive edit command and update support for process configurations
+
+- Add 'tspm edit' interactive CLI command to modify saved process configurations (prompts for name, command, args, cwd, memory, autorestart, watch, watch paths) with an option to replace stored PATH.
+- Implement ProcessManager.update(id, updates) to merge updates, persist them, and return the updated configuration.
+- Add 'update' IPC method and daemon handler to allow remote/configurations updates via IPC.
+- Persist the current CLI PATH when adding a process so managed processes inherit the same PATH environment.
+- Merge provided env with the runtime process.env when spawning processes to avoid fully overriding the runtime environment.
+
+## 2025-08-30 - 5.0.0 - BREAKING CHANGE(daemon)
+Introduce persistent log storage, numeric ProcessId type, and improved process monitoring / IPC handling
+
+- Add LogPersistence: persistent on-disk storage for process logs (save/load/delete/cleanup).
+- Persist logs on process exit/error/stop and trim in-memory buffers to avoid excessive memory usage.
+- Introduce a branded numeric ProcessId type and toProcessId helpers; migrate IPC types and internal maps from string ids to ProcessId.
+- ProcessManager refactor: typed maps for processes/configs/info/logs, async start/stop/restart flows, improved PID/uptime/restart tracking, and desired state persistence handling.
+- ProcessMonitor refactor: async lifecycle (start/stop), load persisted logs on startup, flush logs to disk on exit/error/stop, log memory capping, and improved event emissions.
+- ProcessWrapper improvements: buffer stdout/stderr remainders, flush partial lines on stream end, clearer debug logging.
+- IPC client/server changes: handlers now normalize ids with toProcessId, subscribe/unsubscribe accept numeric/string ids, getLogs/start/stop/restart/delete use typed ids.
+- CLI tweaks: format process id output safely with String() to avoid formatting issues.
+- Add dependency and plugin export for @push.rocks/smartfile and update package.json accordingly.
+
+## 2025-08-29 - 4.4.2 - fix(daemon)
+Fix daemon IPC id handling, reload configs on demand and correct CLI daemon start path
+
+- Normalize process IDs in daemon IPC handlers (trim strings) to avoid lookup mismatches
+- Attempt to reload saved process configurations when a startById request cannot find a config (handles races/stale state)
+- Use normalized IDs in responses and messages for stop/restart/delete/remove/describe handlers
+- Fix CLI daemon start path to point at dist_ts/daemon/tspm.daemon.js when launching the background daemon
+- Ensure the IPC client disconnects after showing CLI version/status to avoid leaked connections
+
+## 2025-08-29 - 4.4.1 - fix(cli)
+Use server-side start-by-id flow for starting processes
+
+- CLI: 'tspm start <id>' now calls a new 'startById' IPC method instead of fetching the full config via 'describe' and submitting it back to 'start'.
+- Daemon: Added server-side handler for 'startById' which resolves the stored process config and starts the process on the daemon.
+- Protocol: Added StartByIdRequest/StartByIdResponse types and registered 'startById' in the IPC method map.
+
+## 2025-08-29 - 4.4.0 - feat(daemon)
+Persist desired process states and add daemon restart command
+
+- Persist desired process states: ProcessManager now stores desiredStates to user storage (desiredStates key) and reloads them on startup.
+- Start/stop operations update desired state: IPC handlers in the daemon now set desired state when processes are started, stopped, restarted or when batch start/stop is invoked.
+- Resume desired state on daemon start: Daemon loads desired states and calls startDesired() to bring processes to their desired 'online' state after startup.
+- Remove desired state on deletion/reset: Deleting a process or resetting clears its desired state; reset clears all desired states as well.
+- CLI: Added 'tspm daemon restart' — stops the daemon (gracefully) and restarts it in the foreground for the current session, with checks and informative output.
+
+## 2025-08-29 - 4.3.1 - fix(daemon)
+Fix daemon describe handler to return correct process info and config; bump @push.rocks/smartipc to ^2.2.2
+
+- Corrected the 'describe' IPC handler in the daemon to use ProcessManager.describe(...) result and return { processInfo, config } — this fixes a mismatch between the handler and the ProcessManager.describe() return shape.
+- Bumped dependency @push.rocks/smartipc to ^2.2.2 in package.json.
+
+## 2025-08-29 - 4.3.0 - feat(cli)
+Correct CLI plugin imports and add reset command/IPC to stop processes and clear persisted configs
+
+- Fixed relative plugin imports in many CLI command modules to use the local CLI plugin wrapper (reduces startup surface and fixes import paths).
+- Added a lightweight ts/cli/plugins.ts that exposes only the minimal plugin set used by the CLI.
+- Implemented ProcessManager.reset(): stops running processes, collects per-id stop errors, clears in-memory maps and removes persisted configurations (with fallback to write an empty list on delete failure).
+- Daemon now exposes a 'reset' IPC handler that delegates to ProcessManager.reset() so CLI can perform a single RPC to reset TSPM state.
+- Updated shared IPC protocol types to include ResetRequest and ResetResponse.
+- Refactored the CLI reset command to call the new 'reset' RPC (replaces previous stopAll + per-config removal logic).
+
+## 2025-08-29 - 4.2.0 - feat(cli)
+Add 'reset' CLI command to stop all processes and clear saved configurations; integrate interactive confirmation and client plugin updates
+
+- Add new CLI command 'reset' (ts/cli/commands/reset.ts) which stops all processes and removes saved process configurations after an interactive confirmation.
+- Use @push.rocks/smartinteract for a confirmation prompt before destructive action.
+- Register the new reset command in the CLI bootstrap (ts/cli/index.ts).
+- Expose smartinteract from ts/plugins.ts and add @push.rocks/smartinteract to package.json dependencies.
+- Introduce a lightweight client plugin shim (ts/client/plugins.ts) and switch tspm.ipcclient to import client plugins from ./plugins.js.
+
+## 2025-08-29 - 4.1.1 - fix(daemon)
+Bump @push.rocks/smartdaemon to ^2.0.9
+
+- Update @push.rocks/smartdaemon from ^2.0.8 to ^2.0.9 (dependency version bump)
+
+## 2025-08-29 - 4.1.0 - feat(cli)
+Add support for restarting all processes from CLI; improve usage message and reporting
+
+- CLI 'restart' command now accepts 'all' to restart all processes via the daemon (tspm restart all).
+- Improved usage/help output when no process id is provided.
+- CLI now prints summaries of restarted process IDs and failed restarts and sets a non-zero exit code when any restarts failed.
+
+## 2025-08-29 - 4.0.0 - BREAKING CHANGE(cli)
+Add persistent process registration (tspm add), alias remove, and change start to use saved process IDs (breaking CLI behavior)
+
+- Add a new CLI command `tspm add` that registers a process configuration without starting it; daemon assigns a sequential numeric ID and returns the stored config.
+- Change `tspm start` to accept a process ID and start the saved configuration instead of accepting ad-hoc commands/files. This is a breaking change to the CLI contract.
+- Add `remove` as an alias for the existing `delete` command; both CLI and daemon now support `remove` which stops and deletes the stored process.
+- Daemon and IPC protocol updated to support `add` and `remove` methods; shared IPC types extended accordingly.
+- ProcessManager: implemented add() and getNextSequentialId() to persist configs and produce numeric IDs.
+- CLI registration updated (registerIpcCommand) to accept multiple command names, enabling aliases for commands.
+
+## 2025-08-29 - 3.1.3 - fix(client)
+Improve IPC client robustness and daemon debug logging; update tests and package metadata
+
+- IPC client: generate unique clientId for each CLI session, increase register timeout, mark client disconnected on lifecycle events and socket errors, and surface a clearer connection error message
+- Daemon: add debug hooks to log client connect/disconnect and server errors to help troubleshoot IPC issues
+- Tests: update imports to new client/daemon locations, add helpers to start the daemon and retry connections, relax timing assertions, and improve test reliability
+- Package: add exports map and typings entry, update test script to run with verbose logging and longer timeout, and bump @push.rocks/smartipc to ^2.2.1
+
+## 2025-08-28 - 3.1.2 - fix(daemon)
+Reorganize project into daemon/client/shared layout, update imports and protocol, rename Tspm → ProcessManager, and bump smartipc to ^2.1.3
+
+- Reorganized source tree: moved files into ts/daemon, ts/client and ts/shared with updated index/barrel exports.
+- Renamed core class Tspm → ProcessManager and updated all references.
+- Consolidated IPC types under ts/shared/protocol/ipc.types.ts and added protocol.version + standardized error codes.
+- Updated CLI to use the new client API (tspmIpcClient) and adjusted command registration/registration helpers.
+- Bumped dependency @push.rocks/smartipc from ^2.1.2 to ^2.1.3 to address daemon connectivity; updated daemon heartbeat behavior (heartbeatThrowOnTimeout=false).
+- Updated readme.plan.md to reflect completed refactor tasks and testing status.
+- Minor fixes and stabilization across daemon, process manager/monitor/wrapper, and client service manager implementations.
+
 ## 2025-08-28 - 3.1.1 - fix(cli)

 - **Plugin system**: Clear boundary for plugin interfaces vs implementation
 - **Multi-language clients**: Other languages only need to implement IPC protocol
 
+## Current Status (2025-08-28)
+
+### ✅ REFACTORING COMPLETE!
+
+The TSPM architecture refactoring has been successfully completed with all planned features implemented and tested.
+
+### What Was Accomplished
+
+#### Architecture Reorganization ✅
+- Successfully moved all files into the new daemon/client/shared structure
+- Clear separation between process management (daemon) and IPC communication (client)
+- Minimal shared code with only protocol types and common utilities
+
+#### Code Updates ✅
+- Renamed `Tspm` class to `ProcessManager` for better clarity
+- Updated all imports across the codebase to use new paths
+- Consolidated types in `ts/shared/protocol/ipc.types.ts`
+- Updated main exports to reflect new structure
+
+#### Testing & Verification ✅
+- Project compiles with no TypeScript errors
+- Daemon starts and runs successfully (after smartipc 2.1.3 update)
+- CLI commands work properly (`list`, `start`, etc.)
+- Process management functionality verified
+
+### Architecture Benefits Achieved
+
+1. **Clear Boundaries**: Instantly obvious what code runs in daemon vs client
+2. **Smaller Bundles**: Client code can't accidentally include daemon internals
+3. **Protocol as Contract**: Client and daemon communicate only through IPC types
+4. **Better Testing**: Components can be tested independently
+5. **Future-Proof**: Ready for multi-language clients, browser support, etc.
+
+### Next Steps (Future Enhancements)
+1. Add package.json exports map for controlled public API
+2. Implement TypeScript project references for enforced boundaries
+3. Split `ts/paths.ts` into shared constants and daemon-specific resolvers
+4. Move plugin interfaces to shared, keep loaders in daemon
+5. Update documentation
