//! Wall-clock reading for session timestamps.
//!
//! Session identity and liveness never consult the wall clock, because a clock
//! that moves cannot decide whether a process is alive. The clock is read only
//! to record when a session started and to age that timestamp for display.
//! Ref: docs/implementation.md, "Session age".

use std::time::{SystemTime, UNIX_EPOCH};

/// Milliseconds since the Unix epoch.
///
/// A clock set before the epoch reads as the epoch, and one set implausibly far
/// ahead saturates. Neither is reported as a failure: the value feeds a display
/// column, so an unusable clock is worth a meaningless age rather than a
/// command that refuses to run.
