pub fn gc_log_directory()Expand description
Best-effort sweep of stale files in {cache_dir}/logs/.
Catches every log type that lands in this directory — not just
daemon-spawn-*.log. As of the issue-#323 fix this includes:
daemon-spawn-{pid}-{nanos}.log(per-spawn daemon stdio capture; CLI-owned)daemon-lifecycle.log.1(rotated lifecycle archive; the daemon handles its own 1 MiB soft-cap but never garbage-collects the archive, so it can sit on disk forever after the daemon exits)daemon.log.*(rotated event-log archives; the EventLogger keeps N by count, this adds a time-based safety net for archives left behind by daemons that exited before the next rotation)compile_journal.jsonl.*(rotated compile-journal archives; same rationale)- Anything else that may have accumulated here from past versions or external tooling
The active daemon-lifecycle.log is intentionally preserved — a
long-idle daemon may go 24h between writes (spawn → next event),
and deleting it mid-life would erase the very history that #323
needed to diagnose the multi-spawn bug.
