macOS pgrep -af only outputs PIDs without command lines, causing session discovery to fail. Replace with ps -eo pid,args which works on both macOS and Linux, with pgrep as fallback. Fixes #1 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Root Cause
macOS
pgrep -af .outputs only bare PIDs (e.g.,35024), while Linux outputsPID command_line(e.g.,35024 node /usr/bin/codex). The downstream_matches_agent()regex cannot match agent patterns against pure numbers.Solution
ps -eo pid,argsis POSIX-standard and outputsPID full_commandon both macOS and Linux. This is used as the primary method, withpgrep -af .retained as a fallback.Test plan
