ProcLease v0.1.2 — first preview

ProcLease's first experimental prerelease puts explicit deadlines on development
servers and watchers started by coding agents.

• Time-limited foreground jobs with explicit extension and process-group cleanup.
• A shared user registry, bounded logs, retained retry keys and JSON output.
• Live CPU/RSS totals, adaptive terminal tables and briefly visible completions.
• Finished history retained for 24 hours or the newest 100 jobs, whichever is first.
• One portable skill for Codex and Claude Code.

Install

Download install.sh from this release, review it, then run:

sh install.sh --skills both
proclease --version

The installer selects your native binary, verifies its SHA-256 checksum and
installs to ~/.local/bin, without sudo or Rust. Add that directory to PATH if
needed. Existing unrelated skill folders are preserved. Omit --skills both
to install the CLI without linking agent skills.

Alternatively, download your platform's .tar.gz, verify it against
SHA256SUMS, and put its proclease executable on PATH. Each archive includes
the shared skill, README and MIT license.

Compatibility and limits

Native tests run on the current GitHub macOS Apple Silicon runner, macOS 15 Intel,
and Ubuntu 22.04 ARM64/x64 (glibc). Both macOS binaries target macOS 15.0; an older
Apple Silicon OS is not separately runtime-tested. macOS binaries are not Developer ID signed
or notarized. Linux musl/Alpine and Windows binaries are not provided.

ProcLease manages only services launched through it. It is a supervisor, not a
sandbox: descendants that create a new process group can escape cleanup. Use
native storage for state inside a VM, not a host-shared directory. Reading status,
logs or resource usage never renews a lease. See the README for support limits.
