Lifecycle

Section titled “Lifecycle”
  • Auto-start: The daemon starts automatically when you run any krait command in a project directory.
  • Per-project: One daemon per project root. Multiple projects = multiple daemons.
  • Socket: Communicates over a Unix domain socket at .krait/daemon.sock.
  • Shutdown: The daemon shuts down automatically after a period of inactivity.
