When to use this skill

ALWAYS use this skill when the user mentions:

Getting process info (PID, app version) in a Tauri app
Programmatic app restart or exit
Graceful shutdown and cleanup

Trigger phrases include:

"process", "restart app", "exit app", "shutdown", "app lifecycle", "process info"

How to use this skill

Install the process plugin:

cargo add tauri-plugin-process

Register the plugin in your Tauri builder:

tauri::Builder::default()
    .plugin(tauri_plugin_process::init())

Configure capabilities in

src-tauri/capabilities/default.json

{ "permissions": ["process:allow-restart", "process:allow-exit"] }

Control the process from the frontend:

import { exit, relaunch } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-process';
await relaunch();  // restart the app (e.g., after an update)
await exit(0);     // graceful exit with code 0

Implement graceful shutdown by saving state before calling exit
Restrict process capabilities to only restart/exit -- avoid exposing unnecessary process data

Outputs

Process plugin setup with restart and exit capabilities
Graceful shutdown pattern with state saving
Minimal capability configuration
