//! Spawning and reaping the detached agent and MCP children the supervisor
//! owns.
//!
//! # Spawning
//!
//! [`spawn_supervised`] is the only sanctioned way to start a child. It runs
//! every spawn on one dedicated thread and, where the platform offers it, asks
//! the kernel to `SIGTERM` the child if this process dies, so a crash, panic,
//! or `SIGKILL` of the supervisor cannot strand an agent holding a port. The
//! spawner thread is started lazily; a failure to start it is returned to the
//! caller and retried on the next spawn rather than cached for the life of
//! the process.
//!
//! # Identity
//!
//! The environment markers and the pure parsers that read them back live in
//! [`systemprompt_models::subprocess`]; the platform probes here
//! ([`live_pid_is_subprocess`], [`is_zombie`]) are what execute them against
//! `/proc` or `sysctl`.
//!
//! # Platform support
//!
//! The two halves of supervision have different reach, and conflating them is
//! what stranded ports on macOS:
//!
//! - **Identity and reap checks** ([`live_pid_is_subprocess`], [`is_zombie`])
//!   work on Linux, via `/proc`, and on macOS, via `sysctl(KERN_PROCARGS2)` and
//!   `proc_pidinfo`. Report the platform's coverage with
//!   [`identity_verification_supported`](systemprompt_models::subprocess::identity_verification_supported);
//!   where it is absent the checks are
//!   fail-closed stubs that never confirm an identity, so no process is ever
//!   signalled on a guess.
//! - **Parent-death prevention** is `prctl(PR_SET_PDEATHSIG)` and therefore
//!   Linux-only. macOS has no equivalent that survives `execve`, and the kqueue
//!   and pipe-EOF alternatives all require cooperation from the child binary —
//!   which is an arbitrary MCP server or agent executable here. A `SIGKILL`ed
//!   supervisor on macOS therefore leaves its children reparented to `launchd`
//!   and still holding their ports; the identity check above is what lets the
//!   next start reclaim them instead of erroring out.
