v0.9.3 — Async Daemon

What's new in v0.9.3

synlynk is now always-on. Agents can pull context without invoking the CLI each time.

synlynk daemon

synlynk daemon start               # fork-daemonize, write .synlynk/daemon.pid
synlynk daemon stop
synlynk daemon status              # running/stopped + queue depth + HTTP URL
synlynk daemon restart
synlynk daemon --install-service   # register with launchd / systemd / crontab
synlynk daemon --uninstall-service

HTTP API — localhost:27471

Method	Path	Description
GET	/context	Current context.md
GET	/status	Uptime, queue depth, pid
GET	/jobs	All jobs (filter with ?status=)
GET	/jobs/<id>	Single job + log tail
POST	/dispatch	Enqueue a job
GET	/stories	Story list
GET	/stories/<id>	Single story
GET	/capability	Capability ratings
GET	/sentinel	Active sentinel alerts
POST	/checkpoint	Force context regeneration

Persistent job queue

• daemon_jobs table in state.db — survives restarts
• Priority 1–10, dependency chains via depends_on JSON array
• Zombie-safe process reaping via os.waitpid(WNOHANG)
• Per-job commit — crash mid-dispatch never produces duplicate runs

Service installation

• macOS: launchd plist → ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.synlynk.daemon.plist
• Linux: systemd user unit → ~/.config/systemd/user/synlynk-daemon.service
• Fallback: @reboot crontab entry
